  • Two weekends ago Billy, Will and I went to Portland for my grandmother’s (mormor) memorial. We were there Friday to Sunday. Then the next day we had visitors from Monday to Thursday. Wow, this last week really packed a punch. Traveling with a little one makes everything that much more exciting. Will is actually a [...]

She had traveled to South Dakota from Portland, Oregon just ten days earlier for my oldest brother’s wedding. She arrived around 11pm on [...]

    14th Week

    Filed under: maternityshare — Christine @ 6:44 pm —
  • Will is in his 14th week outside of the womb. I had lost track. I had been saying 15. I had to count it up yesterday. I used to always know and didn’t quite understand the mothers who didn’t know. Lesson learned.
    I feel like I am getting used to some things about being a mom [...]

     
     

    Work At Home Mom Tips: Time Management October 10, 2008

The looming deadline of me finding work that I can do from home is quickly approaching. I want to try to have this figured out sooner rather than [...]

  • Dear Blog,
    Please forgive me my sins. I have not blogged in eight days…
    I have doubted my writing ability and the quality of my posts that I thought I might write about.
    I have doubted that anyone cares or even reads this blog.
    I have not reached out to the blogging community to foster dialogue and to see [...]

  • Will is 9 weeks old today. He is getting big and chubby - hooray!
    He began smiling last Friday but has since not done it as much as that first time. We do catch a little smile from time to time though.
    Today I called my mom when Will had a cooing session while chilling out on [...]

     
     

    Will’s First Smile! September 12, 2008

    Filed under: maternityshare — Tags: , , , — Christine @ 11:46 am —
  • For a few days now Will has been almost smiling. People told me that I will “know” when it is a full on smile and not just about gas.
    Well, today he smiled for sure! Such a big grin and so much like his daddy! :D
    I was giddy, so happy to be there with him, [...]
