Today’s guest post is from my friend Meagan. I’m not sure how I originally found her blog but I am guessing it was through a photo link-up because she takes amazing photos of her adorable children. She also does cute crafts and has recently fallen in love with her new stand mixer and made her first homemade…
The Thing About Exercise That No One Talks About…
While I’m off, taking on NYC at the BlogHer conference, a few friends have agreed to guest post here for me. I have such awesome friends! First up is someone I blame for blogging. Oh wait, did I say blame? Okay, I meant attribute my awesome love for other bloggers to… She was the first…
Capturing the Moments
I load the pictures and get excited to see what I see. I make lighting and color changes and adjust and adjust. I click over adding my watermark after I am happy with the changes. I put it out there in some way, either here on the blog or on one or more of the…
Some stuff about that conference I am going to…
I know. You all know I am going to BlogHer. And this is the last I am going to talk about it before I go. And then of course there will be all those posts after. Yeah… a few… I have some awesome friends guest-posting while I am gone (you’re going to love them!) and…
So Who IS Miss Elaine-ous? (pre BlogHer post)
Here’s a little post about me for those of you who may not read here regularly or are just finding me because I’m attending BlogHer this year. Just a few tid-bits for ya!… I smile and laugh a lot. I’m usually pretty happy. I like clothes so you might see me in 2 or 3…
Leaving…
I have never had trouble leaving my children for a few days. Maybe it is because I love my children so much that I like to experiment with that whole, “Distance makes the heart grow fonder thing.” 😉 I did not cry the first day I dropped B off at daycare. I went back to…
Play time
I got my big girl camera out today. It felt so nice to caress its black plastic again and adjust settings and click the pretty silver button. Oh my. Anyway, K and I decided to redecorate Dora’s casa and then G crashed our party. So I took some pictures. And now my Nikon isn’t nearly…
I’m no Tiger Mom.
We’ve slipped into this routine of being late this Summer. And I know it’s going to hurt oh-so-bad when we have to jump head first back into being on time. On a schedule. No dinner at 6:30 or 7. No bed time at 9. I fear lots of headaches in a couple of weeks, for…
Nap Time
I walk up to her in the midst of her playing and say, “Katie babe, it’s time for sleeping”. I expect the wailing and it comes quickly. I’m not sure she hears me as I tell her we can read a story first. Instead she over powers me with her voice, hollering, “but I want…
Miss Elaine-ous Monday at it’s best…
I did a little shopping for BlogHer this weekend. I admit I have a bit of an addiction to clothes and shoes. But since I added some new items to my wardrobe I also bagged up some older never worn really things to take to the local resale shop. It’s a process. I still have…
