My new baby boy, Griffin Lee Saye. He came into this world on Thursday, February 24 at 12:45PM.
He weighed in at a whopping 9 pounds and 12 ounces!! And he’s 19-1/2 inches long.
Yeah, a big baby.

With just a couple of days before this kid makes his debut, I’m trying to be appreciative of things. This was a completely unplanned pregnancy – Moo says it wasn’t since we weren’t doing anything to prevent it – but as you know, I didn’t think I could get pregnant again without drugs and crazy calendars and doctors involved. But this is definitely the last pregnancy for me. I will be getting my tubes tied during Thursday’s surgery. ...

So I’ve not felt real good since Saturday. Oh I wasn’t sick or anything over the weekend. That was later. I’ve had what I call “Kitty Litter Nose” since the snow back in January. You know, you feel like your nose is full of tiny rocks or glass or something? And you blow it and it looks like a bloody mosaic? (Sorry I can get a bit gross sometimes) I get this off and on and it’s mostly that my nose gets so DRY and if...

About 5 years ago, I found this chick online who calls herself Flylady.

Oh I hear you.. “But Amanda, it all looks like a big scam to sell me cleaning supplies” and I’ll admit that she’s definitely figured...

Most of us learn about house cleaning and maintenance from our mothers and I am no exception. My mother was a crisis cleaner. This means that generally the housework was left until either A) we had company coming over or B) it was time to put up the Christmas tree. There was also frantic panicked cleaning or stuffing things into cabinets and closets when my grandmother was coming – she wasn’t really considered company since she...

So here we are. Less than two weeks before my scheduled C-section. YES! LESS THAN TWO WEEKS!! I’m pooping my pants. Hang on while I change them. Ok.. that’s better. So Tuesday morning, I wake up and my left wrist is killing me. I mean really really hurting. When I was pregnant with Phoebe, I had the same thing for the last month or so before she was born, except it was the right wrist. My hands and feet have been...

I haven’t talked about Phoebe’s speech development in a while. Truth is, there isn’t much to say. Not that there’s no improvement. There is. She’s talking up a storm. Perhaps not on level with her age, but her vocabulary has greatly expanded and nearly every day I hear her say something new. Here’s a conversation we had this morning: Phoebe: Mama, juice. (what she calls fruit cups) Me: No, we’re going to have breakfast....
