Next week our MOPS group is having “crock pot” day, so in search of the perfect Broccoli Cheese Soup recipe, I sat down at the computer. Most of the recipes with 4 or 5 stars had condensed cheese in them. You know the stuff from the can? It’s not very […]
My mom had me when she was 38. I had turned breech during the last few weeks of her pregnancy so, I ended up being a scheduled C-Section. Then 3 years later, my sister came along and at 41, my mom rocked a natural VBAC. Growing up, my mom never […]
I’ll never forget those first few weeks after we brought our new baby home. The days and nights swirled together in a sea of sleep deprivation and I lost all track of life as I previously knew it, while I sat on the couch, trying to nurse that sleepy baby, before he nodded […]
