I partnered with Suncorp to bring you this list of five things that confuse the crap out of me. 5. Pain management. Pain perception. Whatever. Why is it that I can go through labor and delivery without pain medicine but the girl in the next room is screaming for an epidural while I peacefully breathe…
For a Laugh
The Adventures of Pear Summer at Brandcation
My first Brandcation was Brandcation Pigeon Forge, Tennessee in October, 2011. I was a very last minute attendee and I had absolutely no idea what to expect. I knew Jen from Life with Levi on an internet-personal level. I knew that Mickey from A Helicopter Mom was going to be there and that I had…
I’m a Dirty Girl
I hate showering. Showering sucks. I’ll tell you why: I have the thickest, most abundant, course, wavy hair of any white girl on the face of the planet. It’s also very dry so I can’t wash it every day. Then when I do wash my hair, it takes at least 8 minutes to wash &…
The Messy Fashionista – January 30 Dressy Edition
The Muffin has started her own webshow on YouTube called “The Messy Fashionista”. We will air shows every Wednesday, and perhaps a few in between. She will be talking about Toddler Fashion, bringing you the latest in Toddler and Preschooler Haute Couture. I’ve had this in the works for months but bringing it to fruition…
The 12 Days of Blogging Singing Hilarity
I was humbled and honored to be approached by Toni at A Daily Dose of Toni to be involved in The Singing Bloggers Present The 12 Days of Blogging – a parody of the Christmas favorite The 12 Days of Christmas. There were some seriously amazing bloggers involved, and I am so excited that I got…
I Want a Magic Mike for Christmas
Have you heard the song, “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”? It’s my favorite. I’ve always wanted a hippopotamus for Christmas, so badly that I went out and bought one for myself last year. Only this year, I am changing the song to suit my very own Christmas gift-list needs. THIS year,…
A Typical Day in the Life: How we Deal
I don’t know about yours, but my life is insane. It starts early and ends late, and there is rarely any time to breathe. Want to see what I mean? 6:30am: Alarm goes off. I groan, roll out of bed, sometimes directly onto my face, then slither to the bathroom to put a bra and…
Happy Birthday to…Who?
This blessed and calescent month of July I turn 31. I am no longer 30. I am IN my 30s. I know most people would be frightened by this fact but it is so exciting to me. I have been alive for over 30 years and of those 30, the last 5 have been the…
The War on Peeps
I have a confession. Those flipping Easter Peeps started chirping my name as soon as the sun broke through the night sky on Easter morning. I was SO good. I told them, “No, Peeps! You stop chirping my name! I don’t want your melty, sugary selves in my bellah, messin’ up my blood sugar mojo!”…
The Find
I’ve been in this FUNK for the past 2 months. I know that it’s not without reason, as we’ve had so many deaths in the family, extra bills piling up thanks to the annual HOA dues and termite bond, the step-parent adoption process, dealing with Styles’ occasional (soon to be ex-) parent, having an extremely…
