My cousin Annie and I were born 2 weeks apart, 31 years ago.
Our daughters were born 3 weeks apart, 6 months ago.
Mady (right) weighed a whopping 10 lbs 7 ozs.
My crazy, adorable, naughty children. Regardless of my threats, I love you too much to sell you.
My DVR! This little gem works all day to record the trashy reality shows and sitcoms that I love so that I can watch them all night long after the kids are in bed. This is probably the best invention to date.
Caffeine! Where would I find my energy, if not for this little gem?! And where would my body get the water it needs to survive without Pepsi?
Ahhhhhh.....CHOCOLATE!! It's always there for me when I need it. Whether I'm happy, sad, depressed, or angry.....chocolate always seems to make the day a little brighter.
I don't know what my sisters and brother and my husband would do all day if they weren't answering my texts. My cell phone is my life line with the outside world and is much needed, especially when there is no chocolate in the house to turn to!
The next best thing to a maid, I suppose. I didn't believe my mom when she told me my old washer and dryer were "shitty" until I invested in these guys. Boy was she right. I love my washer and dryer, it is great at getting chocolate out of everything! (see next blog)
The binki. Sweet, sweet binki. And yes, it is also a mute button. This thing has saved a few little children's lives before. They are comforting for the child, and the parent.
The diagnosis: Mesenteric Adenitis. What is that? Well, that means that her lymph nodes in her abdomen are inflamed, causing the pain.
