My toddler momma essentials.

Here are some awesome toddler beds, from the affordable to the no-freaking-way.

I think everyone should take their toddler out to dinner. (but don’t be a jackass about it)

I asked for tips on becoming a stay-at-home momma.

I talked about the importance of volunteering even in a crazy-busy life.

I showed off fifteen incredible nurseries for normal people.

The response was so awesome that I did it again.

My friend Amy just opened her new Etsy shop, Smitten Image, & would love to offer one of you a freebie print to her shop! I love this fire truck but the barn animals with their “sounds” beneath them hits my funny bone in the best way possible.

Cute, right? I KNOW.

Hope on over & let me know which print you would pick & I’ll select a winner in the comments!

Which apparently is good for writer’s block.

Also, I don’t know if bile actually “chunks,” but I was typing furiously.

Dear Silver Fox,

For so many years, I swooned over you, applauded you, admired your journalism, & calculated the many ways to seduce you. You are a smart hunk of fine man-meat. But I think I’m going to end this relationship and trust me, it’s you. Not me.

Listen, this horrible battle between stay-at-home mothers and working mothers is just old and pathetic and so message-boards-circa-2009. Nobody wins that war — we all just end up with cat scratches and hurt feelings to lick. Then you had to sensationalize it by adding the title, “Are Stay-At-Home Moms Lazy?” and I swear, chunks of bile rose in my throat…

A year of Harrison.

Tips for travel with a toddler. (I probably should have done these before the holidays, huh?)

Tips for selling a house with a toddler.

My kid cries about stupid stuff. Y’all helped with this one, so thank you!

Our thoughts are with the Bielanko family after a fire destroyed their home.

I figured out the secret to keep Harrison from making my eardrums bleed with his screaming.

Dictator Harry. (a tongue-in-cheek nod to our tiny ruler)

I’m currently sick as a dog, hoping my flu test comes back negative this afternoon. Until then, rest ye merry gentlemen on my Babble posts & I’ll be back with a Christmas recap…soon. & by “soon” I mean that it could be tonight or a week from now. I make no promises when my throat is on fire.

Some tips for dealing with time outs. (don’t worry, they’re not mine)

I told y’all to go get your hair did & order expensive lattes.

I showed you my house at Christmas, but I think 90% of y’all have already seen it.

Then I talked about the baller day Harrison & I had together on Friday. Because having a day off is the greatest part of being a working mom.

& I gave tips on how to make Christmas morning not put your kiddo on overload.

I got sick, too. Boo.
