And She’s Baaaaack!

Sorry about the disappearing act…  I just came back from 9 days at my in-laws place in Ottawa.  I just didn’t like the idea of a post that basically says: "Hey!  My house is empty, so why don’t you stop by and steal all my stuff!", so I just kind of disappeared. I honestly don’t…

Somewhat Wordless Wednesday: Why Daddy Rob Rocks

Take A Dip With Diaper Fit

After blogging about missing my mom and baby water aerobics class for the past three weeks thanks to Brooke’s napping, I finally made it to class again!  Yay!  I worked really hard to keep her awake this morning so we could go, though I almost had to drive back home when she began to nod…

Don’t You Wish Every Company’s Customer Service Was This Great?
