We started a podcast! Last week, my friend Hannah and I excitedly launched “It Sounded Like a Good Idea at the Time,” a fresh, in-the-trenches dialogue about womanhood and motherhood from decidedly non-experts.

We’ve been working on potty training Nora Beth for the past week, and I have to say (knock on all wooden or wood-like surfaces) that it’s going great. I thought we would go for the hard 48-72 hour training marathon, but instead, with our schedules, we’ve worked on it for a few hours a day,… Continue reading On Our Plates (volume a million)

Y’all! It’s Friday. Which is pretty funny as a mostly-stay-at-home-mom, since, well, Nora Beth doesn’t know what a weekend means, David works on weekends, and my schedule stays the same, but nonetheless, mentally I get so excited for the more relaxed feel of weekends. I’ve rounded up a pretty random list of five things for… Continue reading Five on Friday
