My life as I know it: Life's too short to clean your own home
http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2014/01/lifes-too-short-to-clean-your-own-home.html
My life as I know it. Tuesday, January 14, 2014. Life's too short to clean your own home. I received this flyer in the mail. Actually, I've received a few of them and I have to admit - they really got my attention. So much that I haven't thrown one away yet. It certainly wasn't the design of the flyer that caught my eye. The outdated stock photo of the dad with the 90s hair leaves something to be desired. (wait - did they have laptops in the 90s or did this bad haircut exist in the 2000s? As I mentioned ...

My life as I know it: The path of most resistance
http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-path-of-most-resistance.html
My life as I know it. Sunday, August 04, 2013. The path of most resistance. There is the path of least resistance and then there is the path that I think will be even less resistant than the path of least resistance which actually turns out to be a path with crater-size resistance. Are you following me? A few months ago, my post would have been all rainbows and butterflies. Because that was before I realized that sometimes making your own baby food doesn't save you money but actually costs you more&#...

My life as I know it: November 2013
http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
My life as I know it. Friday, November 22, 2013. Overheard in the Robinson household. Pat: Graham, why are you fighting this? A lot of people would pay money to have someone wipe their butt. Pat: Remember when I woke you up last night because I thought Graham was crying? Me: Yes, it was 6 am and he wasn't crying. Pat: Well, after I checked the monitor I heard it again and then I figured out what I was hearing. Pat: My nose was stuffed up and making noises when I was breathing. Me: Are you joking? There a...

My life as I know it: May 2013
http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
My life as I know it. Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Tragedy in a mother's eyes. The motions were all the same with Graham's bedtime routine last night. I rocked him, we read a book, I kissed him goodnight and I put him to bed. The motions were the same, but the emotions I felt while doing it were different. The reporter said they were keeping the parents outside of the caution tape so the search and rescue team would be more successful in hearing the cries for help. How terrifying and helpless that must hav...

http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
My life as I know it. Sunday, January 06, 2013. The day has come. My baby boy is three months old today. I would say, "where did the last three months go? But I already know the answer to that since I spent them attached to my pump. But I'm sure they would have gone by quickly no matter what. I was never going to give my kid a pacifier. That is, until he was screaming in the middle of the night and I couldn't get him to stop. I didn't think twice before popping that pacifier into his mouth. N...I was nev...

My life as I know it: I don't own any scuba gear
http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2015/05/i-don-own-any-scuba-gear.html
My life as I know it. Saturday, May 16, 2015. I don't own any scuba gear. With the exception of super models, I don't think there is a woman on this planet who enjoys swimsuit season. I never have liked getting in a bathing suit but after birthing my second child five months ago, I am especially dreading it this year. And since I don't own any scuba gear, which is the only thing I would currently be comfortable wearing to the beach, it is time for me to whip this post-baby body back into shape. It felt r...

My life as I know it: Emscapades - Pawley's Island round two
http://emilyls.blogspot.com/2013/07/emscapades-pawleys-island-round-two.html
My life as I know it. Friday, July 12, 2013. Emscapades - Pawley's Island round two. Emscapades, Volume 3. This Emscapade once again took place on the beach of Pawley's Island, South Carolina. Again, taking a stroll along the beach, only this time it was at night and the sky was pitch black. The beach was pretty empty with the exception of a group just next to the deck leading up to our beach house. The guy, obviously quite "spirited" as my dad would call it (also known as wasted), was holding a drink, n...

My life as I know it. Tuesday, June 11, 2013. Overheard in the Robinson Household vol. 2. Pat: If you didn't know any better you'd think we were feeding an army. Me: We take taco night very seriously in this house. Pat: You've got that right. It is our heritage after all. Me: Don't grab my fat chin. How do I get rid of that fat anyway? Pat: Start doing chin exercises. Me: I do, every time I talk. Pat: Then you should have the skinniest chin in the world. Pat: Will you hold this for a second? Week: 29 Bab...
