ElastoMomma: September 2008
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 26, 2008. 3 weeks of leave. So I am 3 weeks into my leave and yesterday I told my husband that I am ready to go back to work so I can get some rest! I know, I shouldn't expect to get rest with a 3 week old, but sometimes being at home is not as restful as people think. Monday, September 15, 2008. Adjusting to a Dad at home. 1st, Seeing each other M-F! 2nd - Money, Money, Money. He is now happy and now I am the one who has no money! 3rd - a SAHD is not a SAHM. Different skill sets. W...

ElastoMomma: Buggers!
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2009/06/buggers-on-my-arm.html
Monday, June 8, 2009. So I'm sitting in an audit meeting at work, trying to look like the responsible leader that I am, when I notice that I have dried buggers all over my arm! To make it even worse, it's 3 pm, so I've been walking around with buggers on my arm ALL DAY long. I slowly place my arm beneath the table, away the observent eyes of the inspectors (I do work in the medical product business). How many people did I meet with today in this condition? October 7, 2009 at 7:08 PM. Ok - Hiatus is over!

ElastoMomma: Learning toRide
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2009/04/learning-toride.html
Tuesday, April 21, 2009. Dash, who is 4 3/4, rode his 2-wheeler for the first time this weekend. We pretty much brought the bike home, he got on it, and rode all by himself. Yes, we helped him with a little push, but once he got going he had no problem. Is he exceptionally coordinated? NO I have to give the credit on this one to my husband and a nifty little bike he bought two summers ago for our son. With the concept of balancing on 2 wheels out of the way it only left Dash with needing to learn how to ...

ElastoMomma: Mommy Wars - probably not
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2014/08/mommy-wars-probably-not.html
Friday, August 29, 2014. Mommy Wars - probably not. Okay, I told him, I'll play with you in the yard. A short time later, the kids called Jack-Jack to come over again. "Can I Mom? He asked. "Yes, of course, but I'll go over with you and talk to Mrs. "Next door neighbor". So I went over, but she was in the house so I knocked on the door to the kitchen from the garage and called her " Hey, do you have a minute? If your son wants to play send me a text message! I've talked to other parents about all this an...

ElastoMomma: On the Road Again
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2010/05/on-road-again.html
Saturday, May 8, 2010. On the Road Again. So sadly, having just got home this morning, I am prepping to head out again tomorrow afternoon. I told my 5 year old that I was sorry for having to leave again. He responded, "I don't mind", as if I had just told him I was going to the grocery store. Maybe the LEGOs I came home with this moring were a bit too good of a travel gift? Work - life balance. I am glad to see you writing again. Keep it up. May 19, 2010 at 12:12 PM.

ElastoMomma: November 2008
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 17, 2008. Having a SAHD provides our family with some unique approaches to day to day life. I will try to share some of them from time to time as I come across them. The safety glasses have now found their place in my kitchen utensil drawer. If it makes peeling and eating oranges more fun for my son then I am all for it. As long as my husband doesn't arm Dash with the cordless drill to core an Apple! Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Maternity Leave - Goals and Surprises. This leave I vowed to ...

ElastoMomma: Where did the time go?........
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2009/01/where-did-time-go.html
Sunday, April 19, 2009. Where did the time go? So when I originally started working on this post this is how it went. Well I survived my first week back at work and not surprisingly so did my kids and my husband. The most drama we had were the few tears I shed on Monday morning as I had to say goodbye to Jack-Jack. Things went surprisingly smooth and our biggest challenge was due to the abundance of snow still remaining on the streets and parking lots in our small town. 1 Let people know I'm back! Don't ...

ElastoMomma: December 2008
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 28, 2008. Back to work - me AND my Husband. In one week I will be getting myself ready for work. Hard to believe, but my 4 months of leave have ended and it's time for me to dust of my work clothes and head back to the office. Undoubtedly we will have some adjustments getting used to our back to work schedules and how to juggle our routines with 2 children. We'll be late for school, baths will be missed and I'm sure I will be stressing out next week and barking orders to everyone as ...

ElastoMomma: Seasoned travelers
http://elastomom.blogspot.com/2009/01/seasoned-travelers.html
Saturday, January 3, 2009. We just returned back to Switzerland after spending the Holidays in the US. As I was sorting through my mail today I opened a notification for an airline "Elite" member Status. Not unusual mail for me as I travel often, except that the notification was for Dash, my 4 year old! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). We have a 'new' car in the family. Our Lives in Switzerland. Ok - Hiatus is over! I am an older Mom, in my 40's and creeping very close to 50 now! Work - life balance.
