After countless holiday parties, followed by New Years Eve, followed by blizzard induced cabin fever, followed by the Superbowl…the eating, drinking & hibernating is over! Spring is upon us and soon we will be putting on less clothing, perhaps even a bikini. It’s time to cut back on the 12 oz curls, put down [...]

This past Sunday morning, I ran the Falmouth Road Race on beautiful Cape Cod and let me just say…it was PHENOMENAL!! The weather was perfect, not too hot, and the scenic course was breathtaking! I ran 7.1 miles (a 10K plus a little extra) in 1:13…not too bad…just under a 10:00 mile!! Not only did [...]
Life has been hectic these past few months! I went on a week vacation in May and ever since I’ve felt like I can’t catch up. I talk to a lot of moms and they all say pretty much the same thing: you’ll never really catch up, enjoy your new life in organized chaos. [...]
Longleanbaby is just about 8 months old now – my oh my, where has the time gone?! I am starting to feel like its time to start weaning. This is a normal process, but for us, its a little more complicated. LLB has refused the bottle since she was about 3 months old. Since [...]

…and so have the long late nights! 6 weeks later – I finally have a few minutes to announce the arrival of LongLeanBaby, Isabella! Isabella made her grand entrance on December 5, 2009, my birthday, and weighed in at 7 pounds 8 ounces, 21 inches long. What a precious gift! The last 6 weeks have [...]
Okaaaaay, I am now 39 weeks and 1 day, but who’s counting?! I am about to embark on this amazing rite of passage in womanhood… becoming a mother. I still look at myself in the mirror and think, “Oh my God, I am going to have a baby!” You’d think after 274 days of pregnancy, [...]
The Climb I pull the shoulder harness over my head and strap myself into the seat. I am now moving forward, meandering my way to the “climb”…click, click, click, click…I begin inching my way to the top.
