That’s the minimum amount of ounces I’ve pumped for my son since he was born. I would have an exact number, except my phone shit the bed a few weeks ago and Apple had to wipe it clean. If I had been on my game, I would’ve posted an entry on my exclusive pumping journey… Continue reading 16,283 Ounces—Give or Take a Few Hundred
I am so tired of it. I’m tired of the hate. I’m tired of the violence. I’m tired of the racism. I’m tired of the discrimination. I’m tired of the fucked-up culture we live in today. I’m tired of a country that made it possible for a bigoted, racist, mysogynistic douchebag to run for President. I’m… Continue reading I Will
For his entire first year, I never did any baby updates…I had wanted to, but never found the time. Well now he’s over a year old! I figured a look at how far he’s come in twelve months would be cool, until I struggled to remember what he was doing at only four weeks old.… Continue reading Joseph Matthew—Then & Now
Goddamnit all, I’ve done it again. *leafs through blog entries in Posts folder* Ah, yes. Early March was the last time I blogged. Early…frickin’…March. *sigh* *more sighing* *dramatic sighs* Well “sigh” doesn’t even look like a real word anymore… Okay, sorry, hello. No, I haven’t died and yes, I am still blogging. I mean, I haven’t been. But… Continue reading *headdesk*
This beautiful little love of my life turned a year old yesterday! AHHHHHHHHHHHH. So of course, I wrote about it for the Rainbows & Unicorns blog. Because…duh. I’ll write a less artsy-fartsy “this is the kind of shit my baby does” type of post hopefully this week or weekend (once I’m over the plague my husband… Continue reading Rainbows & Unicorns: To My Son on His First Birthday
Sometime during the fall of last year, I read something that really upset me. I was in the middle of some struggle—teething, or bad anxiety, or feeling like I’d messed something up or something wasn’t going right, just…something. As I often do in times of high emotion, I opened a new post screen and wrote out a… Continue reading Rainbows & Unicorns: We Are Not Superheroes…
Back in December, I had a moment of panic. By moment, I mean a month…and by panic, I mean a swirling pit of denial and anxiety and fear. I wrote a post about my cousin needing to step down as my nanny and having to turn to daycare for my son before he was a… Continue reading Lucky: A Post on Childcare
I’ve got another post up on the Rainbows & Unicorns blog! I hope you guys like it… Parenting after loss and/or infertility isn’t a constant. It’s an amorphous state of being—impossible to define, endlessly changing, constantly blindsiding you. I’ve had to come to terms with the idea that maybe what didn’t trigger me before, might… Continue reading Rainbows & Unicorns: Flip of a Switch
(This is the second half of my post about Joey’s first Christmas. It ran a little long, so I broke it up into two separate posts. Read the first part here! Again, apologies for length. And for the abundance of photos. Also, sorry for the lateness. This was supposed to be done a week ago. But… Continue reading Although It’s Been Said, Many Times, Many Ways…
I’ll start this off by saying my son’s first Christmas was lovely, magical, emotional, stressful, silly, rushed, exciting, overwhelming, exhausting, fulfilling, and perfect in all its imperfection. I meant to write this post before Christmas, but ran out of time and energy. I’m glad I waited until after the holiday because now I have a different perspective.… Continue reading Where Are You, Christmas?
