  • I feel like whining

    T minus 10 hours before the clock tolls April 13th. The day I dread. The day I must return to work and leave my baby with a sitter. The diaper bag is packed with everything possibly needed from a change of clothes to a snot sucker. The bottles of pumped breast milk are made with… Read more

  • A Fine Mess

    Looks like #15 got herself in a pickle. J-Dub says she was probably scratching her chin on the tree bark and turned her head just enough to get it wedged in there.  She doesn’t know how to lift her head and pull back to get out.       She messed her eye up pretty… Read more

  • A Better World

    I  think I’m officially a mommy blogger, as all my posts of late center around my baby. But how can you blame me?  She has yet to lose that new baby smell as my husband jokingly says. She is my obsession. She will always be my obsession. She is sleeping in my arms as I… Read more

  • In Memory of My Dad #41

      I haven’t shared a story from my dad in several weeks.  There’s a good reason for this.  I’m out of stories by my dad; that I know of.   I haven’t gone through all the old newspapers, but it appears all that is left are sports news.   I’m confident no one cares to… Read more

  • 2 months

    My dear Emma Kate, You are two months old already!  Time is zipping past.  I can’t hardly stand it.  I’m cherishing every day I have with you.   The biggest piece of advice I get from other moms is to not blink and take lots of pictures because you’ll be grown before I know it.… Read more

  • Shots.

    In two short days, my baby girl has to get her 2 month shots. Oh, how I dread it.  To the very core. She’s oblivious.  She doesn’t know what is up ahead.  But I do. She is content and happy, living in her little 2 month world.  Trusting her mama and daddy to take care… Read more

  • All Her Parts

      Our baby girl turned 8 weeks old yesterday. People say she’s tiny, but she’s already grown so much to me.     I tried to capture her in all her little 8 week oldness.  She’s changing so much, so quickly.     Her daddy’s in love with her side profile.  And all the rest… Read more

  • Babywearing 101

    My sister told me it was for wearing my baby  as she handed me the baby wrap.  I looked at her like she had stepped off the planet Zonkers.  It was an excessively long piece of material designed to be twisted, wrapped, tied, and superglued to my body.  I’ve seen people  wearing these contraptions with… Read more

  • Just Emma

    Eat, sleep, poop, repeat. Our days   zoom past. Eat, sleep, poop, repeat. And I’m not just talking about EK either. Eat, sleep, poop, repeat. Sometimes in addition to the aforementioned, we take pictures. And on occasion, I’ll get a request from a family member for more pictures of EK. They pretty much all look… Read more

  • Celebrate Good Times

    My little traveler has already visited 3 states in her six short weeks of being alive.  She’s practically a world traveler. Her first trip was to the Green Country of  Northeastern Oklahoma to visit her Okie relatives. Mainly this sweet great-grandmother who just so happens to share her birthday. There’s only a mere 94 years… Read more
