Figuring Me Out

Figuring Me Out

Sometimes, as women we get lost in our relationships... lost in all the roles we assume on a daily basis. I know I've posted a couple of times recently about who I am and perhaps you all are getting tired of reading about my process of figuring me out, but ...

Potty Training? Um, No.

Potty Training? Um, No.

Zoe has developed a nasty little habit. She will "boo boo" and then decide immediately that she wants nothing to do with her diaper. So she takes it off. Imagine a 20 month old professional climber making her way up the side of my executive desk with a huge grin ...

There Snow Place Like Home

There Snow Place Like Home

Yesterday morning, it started snowing... well flurry-ing... In Louisiana, that's a major deal. We can just about run around in shorts all winter. It gets cold for about 10 minutes and then it's summer all of a sudden. There's no fall and no spring. LOL Here is a photo of ...

Fibromyalgia, Tumors, and Me

Fibromyalgia, Tumors, and Me

I've had a surprising amount of dialog lately about Fibromyalgia. I have to say it's refreshing to have so many people know what it is... and relate to me. Being diagnosed 18 years ago, I grew up accepting that I had a disorder that no one understood - that many ...

I am a little more rested now so I can remember a little more.  I had a pretty intense labor with Tre!  Barry coached me through everything with breathing and watched the whole thing… he was running around snapping pictures and driving me up the wall!  He cut Tre’s cord… he is just too proud of his little boy!  He keeps talking about getting his …

Barry and I were at the hospital until 4 this morning… my contractions were 4-5 minutes apart, then 3-4, and when we left they were 2-3, but my cervix is not changing so they have me two muscle relaxers to help else me into labor.  Sounds like a bunch of bull they made up to send me home thinking they did something, but hopefully they …

Briyana is now 19 months old… She has started using 2-4 word sentences, like I Love You, Let’s go bye-bye, I want the keys, I want a bite, open the door, close the door, etc… She is so smart and healthy! When we go somewhere she puts on her own shoes and even gets her wipes and diapers in her bag, which she likes to …

Briyana loves her little brother already! She sees my belly and she says “TAY!” She gives him hugs and kisses- it’s so sweet. She is so smart… she can count to three now and we started her potty training last week. She points to all her body parts- head, hair, face, ears, nose, mouth, teeth, tongue, eyes, neck, shoulders, back, arms, …

We had a dr. appt. today.. Briyana heard Tre’s heartbeat. She pointed and said “Tay!” It was SO cute!

They scheduled another ultrasound for Tuesday so they can see exactly how …
