Weeks are always better when the family is preparing for a birthday. Reese definitely got her tendency to count down til her birthday (and remind everyone dozens of times) so nobody has a chance to forget. Because her birthday falls on a Sunday this year, we celebrated with our traditional Mommy-birthday kid lunch together on…

It’s All About Balance…Health, Wellness, and #DigestiveCare
I mentioned at the beginning of the year that I am not a huge fan of New Year’s Resolutions. I need to lose weight, yes (a fact that I am painfully reminded of each time I look in the mirror or squeeze into a freshly washed pair of jeans). I need to incorporate more activity…
Time With The Girls – Photostory Friday/Give Me Your Best Shot
It’s a funny phenomenon….I’ve always been terribly shy. I was always the one to opt to read a book alone at home rather than go to a party or be around big groups of people. Somehow blogging changed all of that for me, and I no longer find myself wanting to hide inside my shell….
Who is Joseph KONY? #Kony2012
Today my 15 year old daughter came home from school, and after about 30 minutes in her bedroom, came to my room and asked, “Mom! Have you seen the Kony 2012 video?” I hadn’t heard about it, despite the fact that the video, posted just two days ago, had taken off virally on YouTube and…

I was recently asked the question “What do you do post-Valentine’s Day to stay connected and keep the romance alive all year long?” And I immediately thought, “Do I?” With 5 kids, school, a billion activities, and both of us working at home, we are currently seeing more of each other than ever before. We’re…
The Scent of Childhood
I took a walk down to the boardwalk with some new friends in Santa Monica this weekend. My purse had recently been flooded by an unexpectedly-open bottle of Diet Coke, and so I was traveling lighter than usual. My camera was around my neck and my phone was in my pocket. That’s it. But I…
Project 365 {Week 9}
I’ve been going strong this past week, with plenty of adventures (and a trip to Southern California). Having fun is hard work! What have you done this week?
Travel and Child Birth
I’m writing this from 30,000 feet above the US. I’m somewhere between 6 and 8 hours into my long day of travel from Baltimore to Los Angeles for a weekend of press coverage of the soon-to-theaters movie Mirror Mirror. Honestly, i have no idea if the time on my iPad is DC time, Minneapolis time,…
