20 weeks – we’re half way there. Actually we are more than half way there as I seriously doubt I will be carrying to 40 weeks. As my OB told me early on “Anytime after 36 weeks you want to schedule a C-section it is fine”. I have a feeling it will be 36 weeks [...]

I was shopping for birthday gifts for Brandy’s children today. Brandy said the kids are into animals so I was browsing animal sets online when I came across THIS MONSTROSITY:
It is not just the fact that I have a horrific shark phobia related to a popular 1970’s movie, it was the description that made my [...]

I mean that in the “Calgon take me away” sense and not the “pregnancy hormone that facilitates the birth process” way. I should know the difference now as I had a question on pregnancy hormones on my exit exam from school. I got that one wrong as I thought “RELAXIN?? That has got be [...]

Like I have mentioned before, for 10 years I was a nanny to 3 boys before I became an RN. The boys always dressed cute but it was usually the same thing. Jeans and a t shirt, shorts and a t shirt, sweats, maybe accessorize with a pair of rain boots. Boys clothes have defiantly [...]

After my crazy day yesterday I had planned to sleep in and be a slug most of the day, but my body seems to be on this ridiculous schedule of getting up, using the bathroom and getting food by 7am. After that was taken care of I got back into bed and read and dozed. [...]

Lately I’ve been wondering what the hell I was thinking when I decided to become a nurse. The floor has been SO busy with constant admits and discharges, everyday there is 5 patients to a nurse (legally that is the most you can be assigned). I wasn’t sure if I was cut out for it. [...]

I’d like to give a shout out to the makers of the Snoogle. Even though it makes less room for Tadd in bed, I’m hooked.

Tadd and I need to be banned from baby stores. We don’t even have the twins in our hot little hands yet and they are already amassing stuff (they get that from their dad).
Yesterday we went to the fabric store to look at some samples. My mother is making the baby’s crib bedding and we [...]

I was a nanny to 3 adorable, albeit wild boys for 10 years. I’ve seen my fair share of testosterone based actions. These were kids that would bring me to tears some days, (they like to blame it on another sibling now when they reminisce: “Remember when J*** made you cry” to which I have [...]

What a day..

On this day, 8 years ago Tadd and I had our first date. Fun times, lots of 2 for 1 drink specials, Tadd actually dancing….like I said it was 8 years ago. It was quite fitting that today we were able to find out about our twins.
First we should preface it with our sonogram [...]
