As I'm drifting off to sleep, I can't help but to hear the sound of my baby and her daddy having the sweetest conversation. It is a chorus of soft "aowww"s and "ooooowaaaaaohhh"s and squeals and even a few "I love you"s (or, in baby language, "ehhh ehhh ehhh"....but, I swear, she says it with the ...

the sweetest
The best part of my day was when I walked into the baby's bedroom to find my husband brushing her freshly washed hair (all four of them) and telling her that he was getting her ready for a special daddy-daughter date at "Chez Bed" for snuggle time. I mean, come on. Does it get sweeter than that? Oh, who ...
flow it, show it
My baby danced on the Broaway stage. To be fair, she did so in utero. When I was 7 weeks pregnant, my husband and I saw the Broadway revival of "Hair" and had an absolute blast dancing on stage with the Tribe. It probably does not come as much of a surprise that I am extremely superstitious. Needless ...
“hope is the thing with feathers…”
I believe in angels. I don’t mean that I believe in the winged icons that hang with halos as holiday ornaments. I believe in benevolent forces, the spirits of those we’ve loved and lost, that watch over us, protect us and guide us through our days. When I’ve needed help, or dug down deep for strength, I’ve been ...

So, I was just keeping my husband company as he changed the baby's diaper, and as I glanced down at the area, I noticed something silver and shiny on her. I leaned in to get a closer look, not too anxious to go through another poop investigation. Nope, not poop. I got closer. What was it, you ask? A ...
just like ripping off a bandaid
Today, my daughter was vaccinated. She had her two-month-checkup, And was given her first round of shots. Not easy on baby. Definitely not easy on mommy. I paced nervously around the doctor’s office. I sang to her. Loudly. I belted out tunes from “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Little Mermaid”, Not caring who heard me. I had to drown out the noise of my ...
lullaby, and goodnight, go to sleep little baby.
I know I make a lot of jokes, And make a lot of fun, But when it comes to beautiful music, I make no bones about it. Here are a few of my current favorite lullabies, Or simply songs to slow down to, For babies, For mommies, And, for everyone in between. Depending on your mood… Lonesome,Gavin Creel Hold You in My Arms, Ray Lamontagne Since ...
sweethearts forever
I have a confession to make— I chose my wedding song before I got engaged. In fact, it was before I even met my husband. I chose the song that we would dance our first dance to, Not realizing, mind you, that the man I would be dancing that first dance with was riding the same yellow school bus as ...
rules of the road
We all know about DWP or driving while pacifying And today, while schlepping my baby and two dogs from point A to point B, I realized that these old rules no longer apply. You see, they've all been replaced with new driving-while-essentials. DWL: Driving While Lullabying This tool is used when trying to settle a sleepy, crying, or otherwise discontent infant. ...
