Three Years Old

June 2, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

Three Years.  Three Years.  THREE YEARS.  Sure, I’m excited for my son and looking forward to celebrating his special day, but truth be told–I am also just doing a happy dance because my husband and I have managed to “successfully” (now that’s a grey area, huh? 😉 ) parent for this long.  Even weirder, how […]

You know I love my Neverland Nook ladies!  I only talk about Sabrina and Leslie, All The Time 🙂  So when the very witty Leslie recently had trip to Target that could easily go down in history as one of the Most Amazing Errands Runs with Young Kids of All Time, and offered to share […]

Why I’m Pretty Sure My Husband Secretly Got an Egg Donor

May 31, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

I’d always had suspicions that my children were the result of egg donations my husband had secretly implanted in my uterus (it’s better not to think about how this would be logistically possible).  They both have blue eyes and my daughter has red hair.  My husband’s features are all around dark and I’m a strong brown-eyed dark […]

Finding the Funny

May 30, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

I’m a cheap date.  It doesn’t take much.  If you can make me snort-out-loud, I’m basically sold and in love.  So when one of my all-time favorite bloggers Delilah from Confessions of a Semi-Domesticated Mama* referred me to the My Life and Kids Community, I felt like a I tripped on a gold mine.  These […]

Mystery Odor

May 29, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

Please tell me I’m not the only one who plagued by mysterious rank odors permeating their house.  Sure, when you’re pregnant, your sense of smell is supposed to heightened.  Somehow, my keen nose never waned post-birth and in fact, seems to be getting stronger all the time (perhaps evolutionary adaption of modern-day suburban moms to […]

Coupon Chief: The Monday Review

May 28, 2012 By Meredith 8 Comments

So here’s the deal: today is Memorial Day and I find myself online ordering a pair of wool slippers.  Yes, I’ll wait while you do a quick head shake and mentally regroup…Good?  Okay, so my life does get a little crazy when I switch it up between pajama jeans and black yoga pants, but my […]

Power Tools in the Freezer

May 27, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

When one finds power tools stashed in their chest freezer in the basement, one…??? Silly me–I thought the freezer was for storing food…

Not a Kid Person

May 26, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

Yes, for my children, I will chaperon field trips…gleefully, of course 😉 The other night I got to meet up with 3 friends for dinner.  One has young kids, one is in the process of adopting and one is not yet copping up to any immediate plans.  We were hashing out our fabulous lives and […]

Coffee Creamer…and Possibly More Coffee Creamer…

May 25, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

It is possible that 3 weeks in a row Genaurdis.com was out of the coffee creamer I ordered.  It is also possible that I may have then gone slightly overboard this past week, panicked about a potential dearth of creamer, and ordered every single coffee creamer on their online grocery shopping site, thus ensuring that at least […]
