Yeah. I know. It has been awhile.

My life is hectic what can I say?

This summer we went to CA… twice! It was fabulous. Even traveling with a baby was not AS miserable as I imagined it would be.

Cambria has grown so much in the last few months. And I haven’t recorded anything about it here. (But then it was my intention not to make this a mommy blog, even though I know that isn’t really what is going to happen. I love my girl and  I love talking about her.

There she is BTW.

.

I keep having intentions to post, but then life gets in the way.

Today is Saturday. It is the first Saturday in quite a long time that I don’t have something I HAVE to do. Cambria is napping, I have cleaned up the house a bit. I am currently sitting on the couch watching a movie on Netflix Streaming. A costume drama, that Ryan wouldn’t like, but it [...]

Happy Father’s Day Dad!
I’m sorry I didn’t get a chance to send you a card (not that you care about such things). It was so good to spend some time with you for the last week on the cruise. What a wonderful moment it was for me… to see you holding my baby. What a [...]

Cambria,
You are 6 months old!
You have had a big month.
We took you to a Durham Bulls baseball game when Grandpa Smith visited. You ended up getting an ambulance ride, a visit to the ER, a CT scan, an x-ray, and a black eye. You took it so well! You were more worried about being strapped [...]

I didn’t get a chance to post anything on Mother’s Day, so I will do it now.

We had quite an eventful Mother’s Day Weekend.

Without going into the LONG story again… or at least right now… I’ll say this…

Cambria was hit by a foul ball at the Durham Bulls baseball game on Saturday. That was an [...]

If you met me in the last 5 years, you probably don’t know that I love DIY. When I moved into an apartment, I felt like everything was quite temporary and I didn’t have room for the DIY projects that I wanted to try.
Well, Ryan and I are still renting. But at least it is [...]

Cambria,
It has been 5 months since you were born.
You are developing a cute little personality now. I can tell that you are a sensitive soul because when Dad growls at you to make you laugh, you actually make the saddest little frown I have ever seen and nearly burst into tears. You don’t think growls [...]

Still balding…
Currently smelling of baby barf.

Did I tell you my hair is falling out?
Well, MY HAIR IS FALLING OUT!
I thought your hair started falling out right after you gave birth. Not 4 months later.
My hair is EVERYWHERE.

This is a fun subway poster that I found on Austen Blog.
“The Pride and Prejudice subway poster, inspired by a vintage New York subway sign, is not only a list of places in P&P but an expression of Elizabeth Bennet’s journey to self-knowledge and a happy ever after.”

I think I want one!
