  • 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 [...]

  • Last weekend Billy, Will and I went to Portland to honor mormor (meaning “mother’s mother in Swedish). She passed away on her birthday this last September 29th at the age of 84. 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 [...]

  • I watched the final debate tonight with Billy (and Will at the breast) on Current TV. They aired a “hack the debate” version of all of the presidential and vice presidential debates where people could Twitter about what they were watching and those Twitters (selected by Current TV staff) would show up on the screen.

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

  • I looked up “jobs for moms” in my google search bar because I wanted to further along my search and to see what opportunities lie out there. 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 [...]

     
     

    Debate Pizza October 2, 2008

  • Billy asked me to pick up a half-baked pizza at our local worker owned bakery Arizmendi so that we could eat it while we watched the vice president debate. I called Arizmendi ahead of time to see what the “pizza of the day” was (answer: artichoke, red onion, pesto)and learned that you could reserve a [...]

     
     

    Forgive Me Blog For I Have Sinned September 24, 2008

    Filed under: maternityshare — Tags: , , — Christine @ 12:04 am —
  • 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 [...]
