Sleep Hands*
Oh lovelies, what a week. First Ruby decided to play a really fun game called “Newborn Baby” where she went back to waking up every two hours at night. Thankfully it only lasted a few nights and we’re back on a regular routine now. Then last night my throat started feeling a little scratchy, and I woke up this morning with the beginnings of a head cold. I hoped I could try and stave it off by taking it easy and resting today, but after a nap this afternoon I woke up feeling like my head was completely underwater. So, it’s been a bit of a week. I actually wrote…

Personal Space Invaders*
I adore Seinfeld. The concepts for the show are so simplistic it’s ridiculous, but they are sometimes SO true to life that I can’t even handle it. Sometimes things happen to me and in my head I immediately imagine how it would play out in a Seinfeld episode. Yesterday I had one such occurrence.

On Saturday I spotted the exact playpen I had been searching for, so I immediately contacted…

Wedding Rings and Unicorns*
The times, they are a-changin’. My darling wee one has been up partying these past two nights. On Sunday night she decided to wake up and play at 1am and didn’t crash again until almost 4am. Last night she woke up at the same time, but thankfully I got her back down closer to 2:30. While she shimmied her way around her crib blowing raspberries on the bars, I had a lot of time to sit in my rocker as I kept her company. To try and keep myself awake, I found myself scrolling through the Facebook news feed on my phone. As I scrolled past photos of couples and…

The Hallowee-bean*
So, let’s just pretend that Hallowe’en was like… yesterday. Because in my head, it actually was. The past 10 days or so have been a complete whirlwind. I have about 8 unfinished blog posts sitting in a list that I just haven’t been able to get to because things have just been stupidly busy. My darling wee-bean has been a bit of a night owl these past two weeks. Instead of her regular 6:30pm bedtime, she has been up partying until 10:30 – 11pm. …and of course by partying I mean needing her momma as we deal with some separation anxiety issues and big time teething. Speaking of which, her…
