I think we are in the same boat, sometimes i am amazed how people want breast augmentation to make it bigger and some desire to had breast reduction. Click here.

a timely post for me to read, mama. i'm wanting to be better at this too. and, honestly, really wanting my HUSBAND to be better. he feels like he has to respond to every little work email/text/call immediately and it makes me nuts.

thank you for the inspiration.

AAAH! That's AWESOME news about the house offer! Woo Hoo! Definitely exciting. Cheers to good things coming your way!

I've gone to "stay in your room from 2:30 to 4 and don't destroy anything" time instead of "nap" time. I could coax her to sleep, but I don't have the patience anymore and I'm enjoying the slightly earlier bedtime! Good luck!

Yay! Yay! Yay! That's super exciting about you...

Yay! Yay! Yay! That's super exciting about your house! & that you are feeling better! :-)

Hope you have a fabulous long weekend!

Very happy for all of the light that has entered your life! What a great way to kick off the weekend.

I'm certainly guilty of this, too. We try to do better and some days are better than others. We need to balance being conscientious and attentive parents with being kind and forgiving to ourselves. There are some days that getting her to the park is an achievement and if I sit on hte bench and play BeDazzled, I don't feel a bit guilty. But I can't fall into the trap of doing that all the time and forgetting how much joy it brings her to have me push her on the swing and watch her climb.

We just keep trying to do better, right?

2012-05-24T06:38:11.798-07:00

Such a great post, and something that I truly needed to be reminded of lately. Have you seen the movie Click with Adam Sandler? It reminded me that family should come first to work, even when there's a deadline. I make it a point to do work after E's in bed so she has my attention.

I'll be setting aside my phone and iPad tonight and focusing on my family.

That's quite a change. I'm still holding on to my old phone ... and even so I often find that there are things that I would rather do and have to 'force' myself to really listen to the kids.

On the other hand I think it's important for kids to know that our entire lives don't revolve around only them. They need to learn to wait their turn or entertain themselves... only then will they be rounded adults.

We're going through the same thing! It's exhausting, and it's harder when they used to be independent! I'm not sure what happened, but I want him to be able to entertain himself again!!

i am with you on almost everything but: NOT LIKING ICE CREAM!? GASP!

i must be your soul sister because i'm pretty sure i'm eating all that ice cream you are passing up FOR you.

i have no wisdom for you. Elliot has been this way since he sprang from my womb.

i can sneak in a minute or two of cleaning here and there, but mostly i'm cleaning while talking him through whatever game he is trying to play with me.

so now i'll lurk here to see if anyone has wisdom for us. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! And welcome to your thirties =) I also turned 30 this past year. I embraced it fully and have taken on the mentality that the 30's are meant for doing everything I didn't get done in my 20's ;) how's that for embracement??

Glad to hear it was a good one and thanks for stopping by my little blog today. =)

I LOVE Dogfish Head and am pissed they stopped selling it in Wisconsin. My husband and I actually saw Sam trying to rap in a little dive bar in Manhattan when he first started brewing and was trying to get the word out, probably sometime in 2002.

One day late but Happy Birthday!! I hope that this next year will be better than you can imagine.

2012-05-17T08:52:43.191-07:00

Girl, we must be soul sisters or something. I am so with you on running hot and cold... getting really into something for a good week and then I just completely lose interest. I can't believe I've kept up my blog as much as I have! & I also used to be completely insecure (& still am a little), but I'm SO much more confident now!

Glad your b-day was a great one!

2012-05-16T15:52:40.694-07:00

It is my 30th birthday today as well! I feel the same about the cool card - in fact I asked my husband to buy me classy, expensive sunglasses for my birthday so I will stop buying trendy H & M ones. Here's to our twenties, hurrah!

2012-05-16T14:59:48.174-07:00

Oh I adore how your re-capped this list! I may love even more that you picked up a girlfriend/blogger in Florida? LOL If you want to meet me in NYC I will totally try and explain to you what BlogHer is. I've been once, I think I get it. Girl power on steroids with lots of parties and shoe shopping!

Happy Birthday! & you totally do NOT need to turn in your cool card! I'm with ya on the whole BlogHer thing and you totally cracked me up with your Starbucks comment. Overall, I think you did really good! I need to get on my list.

Happy Belated Mother's Day and, for those that even said that mess to you - send 'em my way - I have a stiletto I can whap upside their head. My thoughts are with you during this time and I pray that everything goes well.
