New Year…Same Me
I’m all over the place. Every time I think I’m holding it down, I realize I’m falling apart. Mom had a stroke so I’m running the restaurant by myself. My sister and I were in a good place but now it’s bad again. I just don’t know. Just say a prayer for me is all [...]

June 10, 2011the dentist
We visited the dentist this week to check on Kayden & Kennedy’s teeth. I was able to secure an appointment for both of them on the same day and the same time and this worked because I knew hubs would be off. Well the morning of the appointment, hubs says he has a meeting so [...]

June 6, 2011Good Morning Sunshine!
Kai is such a happy baby! When she finally wakes up in the morning, she does it in such a pleasant manner. Happy Monday-who wouldn’t want to wake up next to this face?

May 26, 2011I Forgot to Add Kai to My Insurance
You know I’m pissed right? I can’t even really say I forgot. I try to write down everything because lord knows, my memory is hardly what it used to be. Thing is, I thought there was some sort of delay and never followed-up to check that my employer received the enrollment paperwork. Babies are covered [...]

March 22, 2011Breast Is Best….For Me At Least
I don’t get into the drama of which is better, formula or breast milk-I used both on the other kids and they turned out just fine (or so I think). I nursed Kayden for close to a year and with Kennedy, I quit early because I heard the milk would taste funny when you started [...]

February 4, 2011Help Me: A Lice Scare In School
It was a normal Friday. I went to pick up Kayden and near his coat were his bedding that needed to come home to be washed. On the bag with the dirty linens was a note. I held it up so I could read it. I immediately started to itch. I didn’t even know what [...]

December 29, 2010A Sling I Could Rock
I always see moms wearing their babies and when I do, I get that dumb star struck look on my face. I’m fascinated by it but you know me, I like style and I just don’t want any old piece of fabric to hoist up baby-we must coordinate. Feast your eyes on my latest find. [...]

Babyface: It’s Bathtime
I don’t like this tub. I like lots of splash time and one thing you aren’t getting with the Puj is plenty water. I suppose that’s safe but my babies like to soak and get bathed. She doesn’t cry when she’s getting her bath which is great but she just seems so uncomfortable in it. [...]

December 9, 2010Culture Noir: Woodward’s Gripe Water
The Trinidadians have a few remedies for colic and of the two I’ve tried, I prefer the gripe water seen below. (I’ve also tried red lavender oil around the navel and on the feet). I was told once that boys get colic more than girls but Kai seems to be just as gassy as Kayden [...]

December 9, 2010Belly Noir: Spotlight on Tiphani Montgomery
One of the moms I follow on Twitter is Tiphani Montgomery, #1 Essence Magazine best selling author. I have a list of expectant moms entitled “the underbelly” and I stalk them frequently to see how they’re doing. I love to see pregnant women looking fly rocking their belly. I asked for a pic to showcase [...]
