It's been a while now since I gave birth. Ages, even. Centuries. I am now 100 years old. Just kidding, it's been about 9 months. They have now been out of me the same amount of time they were in me. It feels like[...]
When I was in my 20's, I didn't want kids. I liked kids, for the most part, but I knew they take up a lot of time. I didn't want to spend time doing what kids wanted to do, I wanted to spend time doing what I wanted to do. I wanted to ride horses, have fun, explore, sleep in, or stay up all night.[...]
Before children, I took for granted being able to get my hair cut. Now, wow, what a luxury. I actually hate getting my hair done, it takes too long and I nearly always don't like the results, but it is necessary. My hair starts to look pretty ratty and gross if I go longer than a year without a hai[...]
Once again, time moves so fast, I can't even believe it. I felt like I had just written that post about Stu, but turns out, it's been nearly a month. How is that even possible? So what's been happening in the last month... well, nearly nothing horse related. I think if I stuck to only talking about[...]
They have arrived. After so many months, starting with constant sickness and misery, and ending with constantly being uncomfortable, they are here. It's been over a month now, and I finally have the energy and time to write this, early in the morning, while all the kids are still sleeping. Pr[...]
Things have been pretty quiet around here. There's not a whole lot I can do, now that I'm the size of a small whale. Since there's twins in there, I already look like a full term pregnant woman. And I still have over a month left. This is trying for a flattering pose. Most of the time I'm[...]
As our little girl is growing up, we started to feel like we might need another one. The first one was working out really well, and it could be fun to have two. They could play together, for one thing. and then they are this cute, you can't have just one So with that in mind, we though, we co[...]
We made it through 2020. Kudos are in order. Of course, 2021 starting isn't going to magically cause life to suddenly become normal again. It's still going to be strange times for a while. I have high hopes for the new year. I have a lot of goals, personal, financial, equestrian, and family,[...]
It seems like just days ago she was born, and now she's hit another milestone - her first pony ride!!! She's been born in another way: introduced to the wonder of riding. Naturally, she has already been around horses, since she lives on a horse farm, but I have never let he[...]
It has been a busy few weeks. Grandma came up to stay and watch Bridgette, giving me time to get things done. We did some housework, I'm riding regularly, and we had family time! I ended up so busy, I didn't get to blog as much as I would have liked. Unfortunately I only get childcare sparingly, es[...]
