Baby Balance: November 2014
http://babybalance.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 12, 2014. My wildest introverted daydream has now been realized! I am home alone. Alone! Now that I’m back to work, I also get daytimes at home with just the dog. So nice, but even still there’s always someone to interrupt my train of thought, to take care of, to be sure I’m not literally tripping over or walking into. Really, this pup is constantly nearby! Youd think he was a herding animal. Saturday, November 8, 2014. First Week Back to Work. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Baby Balance: July 2014
http://babybalance.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 14, 2014. The Power of Nesting. I have just a few more weeks before the supposed arrival of our baby girl. Crazy! Decorated and transitioned all of Lil’ O’s stuff to his new big boy bedroom. Prepped nursery for arrival of Lil’ Chica, complete with baby gear and freshly laundered clothing, swaddling, accessories and more. Home contractor crew built new backyard shed and Husby built a stand to store firewood. Husby installed insulation and flooring in the attic. Hung pictures in main bathroom.

Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Reflections on the Past Year. There’s so much to do, and so little time that it’s often hard to stop and reflect. In preparation for the start of my 34th. Year, I wanted to think back on some of what I’ve learned with balancing now two littles with my hubby, working, managing the house, and trying to keep my adult relationships (family, friends, preschool teachers and parents, church acquaintances, etc.) all intact. So, 34 years, 34 personal truths. . Wednesday, July 22, 2015.

Baby Balance: January 2015
http://babybalance.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 20, 2015. Returning to the Kitchen. When a new baby arrives, all eyes are on that adorable babe. And, for new parents, all their attention and energy go to that little wonder. It’s amazing and utterly exhausting. At least this is how it was for Husby and me with both Lil’ O and Lil’ Chica. We’ve just recently crossed the line with Lil’ Chica (now a whopping five months! That we can reintroduce our own hobbies. The precursor to this has been the return of regular sleep. Hallelujah!

Tuesday, December 2, 2014. Baby Toddler Thanksgiving Survival. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! The past holiday weekend included a few milestones, including our first flight as a family of four. Happily, Lil Chica did well and nursed or slept much of the four total flights we took to get from San Diego to Ohio and back. Traveling and the holiday with baby AND toddler was significantly more challenging, though, than when we simply (ha! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). San Diego Food Finds.

Baby Balance: June 2014

Friday, June 20, 2014. Preparing for Baby – The Looong Purge. Forward momentum in Operation Big Boy Room was halted due to a leaking pipe dripping onto the ceiling of Lil’ O’s future room. Bah! We had a friend, who is happily also a plumber, come by to fix the offending pipes, but due to their placement in the attic, he had to cut into the ceiling. Attic insulation raining down was not exactly the décor or vibe I was going for, so the big move for Lil’ O was put on hold. Sigh, we love our house, but gett...

Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Welcome Lil’ Chica, A VBAC Birth Story. She’s here, she’s here! Lil’ Chica *finally* made her grand entrance one week and one day after her much-anticipated due date. Later than anticipated and still right on time. And, once she decided it was time, she came pretty quickly! Maybe a little too quickly. It all started the Tuesday after my Friday due date. Got that? That was Friday morning, one full week past my due date. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Classy Girls Wear Pearls.
