I will have been blogging for 2 whole months tomorrow!
I cannot believe all of the amazing people I have met over these two months! So many people have helped me get to where I am and have been there to let me vent when things went wrong!
With this switch to wordpress and self hosting I may need more venting and help now than ever!!
I just want to say a big THANK YOU to everyone that has helped me! I know I will end up forgetting someone and I am super sorry if I do!

27 Things I Learned In The Past 4 Years As A Mom
This is my first birthday as a mom of two! So I decided that I wanted to think back over the past 4 years and come up with
27 things that I have learned about being a mom!
Some are silly, some are serious, and some just aren’t right!
Why 27 you ask? Well, simply because today is my birthday and I am 27 years old! Makes total sense right?!?
While I have learned a ton of things since I became a mom, there are some “lessons” that are much more amusing than others and some that stand out as more important than others.
Of course, as you probably guessed, most of these are only funny after-the-fact and they tend to be lessons that I sort of learned the hard way. Most of them left me yelling, “Oh my gosh! I will totally never let this happen again!” Hahah yeah right! I was so naive! Continue reading “27 Things I Learned In The Past 4 Years As A Mom”

Product Review: Baby Comfy Nose
Baby Comfy Nose is a nasal aspirator made by a dad who got tired of the bulb and battery style aspirators not working well enough.
Here is a quoted description, that I got from BabyComfyNose.com of the product:
“The BabyComfyNose uses your own suction to remove your baby’s nasal mucus. Insert the nose tip into the baby’s nostril and form a seal (it is designed so that you can not insert it too deeply). Place mouth piece in your mouth and … create suction. Mucus is pulled into the receptacle body and is isolated there. Use a wadded tissue in the body of the aspirator as a super absorbent filter. For best results, use ‘cheek’ suction in short repeated breaths.”
If you are curious how this item compares to a normal Nasal Aspirator, be sure to check out their website that I linked to above!
Want to know more? Keep reading for a hilarious video How to where I (yes me, myself and I) try out the aspirator, as well as a large variety of pictures of it in use! Continue reading “Product Review: Baby Comfy Nose”
How to: Mastering Twitter 140 Characters At A Time
A lot of you have seen me complain about my lack of understanding of this thing called Twitter!
I have a total love/hate relationship with Twitter…I just can’t seem to get the hang of it! I have tried…really!
This lack of understanding lead me to dig deeper, do research and ask friends for advice.
I have decided that I want to share what I have found with you guys for this weeks:
Disappointment
Disappointment can be difficult to deal with when trying to lose weight.
I have been watching what I eat, drinking only water, and working out religiously with my hubby. I have lost several pounds in the past few weeks..which is awesome!
However, we just did my hubby’s measurements and “before” pictures (he would kill me if I posted them so those stay secret) and I decided to see how I have done so far since I started really working it this month…
Guess what?!?
My measurements have gone up!! What the heck?
My hubby keeps telling me that it’s just because I am building muscle…and I so hope that is true. If my measurements are still up at the end of the month, I may very well scream and cry while rolling around on the floor in a full on temper tantrum!
PS: If this happens I will be sure to have someone record it for your viewing pleasure!
