Truly, Madly Guilty*
I’ve been reading a lot lately. I finally caved and bought a Kindle two months ago, and it has seriously changed EVERYTHING. I’ve read more in the last few weeks than I have in years. I can finally read while I’m sitting in the dark waiting for P to fall asleep, or read one handed while I’m holding one of three children on my lap. It’s portable, it’s light and I like it so much better than I ever thought I would. I really love the feel of a book in my hands, but the Kindle has enabled me to read so much more than I was before and I…

A Simpler Life*
It’s been six weeks since my course ended. I feel a bit ridiculous that it’s taken this long, but I finally feel like I can breathe easy again. After an extremely challenging winter, spring has blown in with a beautiful breath of fresh air. Now that P is finally, finally sleeping through the night like a champ (*knock on wood*) I feel more like myself than I have in ages. H is four now, and is just on the cusp of giving up his nap. He can go all day without one, he just gets verrrrry emotional about every. little. thing by dinnertime if he hasn’t had it. I’m also…

A New Home*
It’s been almost two weeks since I last wrote, and as you can see, a few things have changed since then. If you follow me on Instagram and saw the Story I posted last week then you might know most of what happened, but I know I was a bit vague on Facebook and I basically just took down my old blog without warning. Without getting into too much detail, I had some security concerns with my old blog and decided it was time for a change. I wanted so desperately to write everything I was feeling, but for the first time I didn’t feel like I could… and I…

Beautycounter Lipstick Review*
A little over a week ago, a friend of mine posted a giveaway for some Beautycounter Lipstick she was selling. I have several friends who sell products from home so these posts aren’t unusual, and I often enter them… but I never win anything. Seriously. If you want a surefire way to lose a raffle, just put my name on the ticket. I enter them anyway as I keep hoping that someday my luck will change… and it finally did! My name was drawn last Monday and I won a Beautycounter Colour Intense Lipstick of my choice. It was a Christmas miracle. In April. I’ve been interested in learning little…

Rubber Boot Running*
Every day I pack up the kids and make the hike down the road to get Ruby to and from school. It’s basically a straight shot up the street from here to her school, so on the way home we can see our house from quite a distance. I thought I’d provide you with a little entertainment today. At 3:20pm yesterday I got the boys dressed and we started off on our walk to go pick up Ruby. I usually check the mail on the way there, but yesterday the box was empty. I figured maybe there just wasn’t any mail that day. We made it to the school and…
