Happy New Year

The girls and I took an extended vacation in Florida this year. We had a great time with Grandma and GG! We really enjoyed the warm weather and visiting with friends and family. Mikayla can't stop talking about Uncle & little cousin Erin, Chuchia Maymie, Debra and Aunt Lina! Now we are back in NYC, locked up in the house for the most part. It is very cold outside. We've seen a few flurries but no snow as yet.

As of today, the countdown to the next baby is 5 weeks! I can't believe it! I have nothing ready, including myself! I'm ready to not be pregnant anymore, but I would never want to rush the little one. I still haven't finalized a name yet. Mark suggested Madison and I'm still leaning towards Lindsey! This entry is going to be a short one. I hear my little ones waking up!

February 2012

Ok, the purpose of this blog was for me to start writing. I used to write stories and such and I always enjoyed the process. It has been more years than I would like to count since I have done any of it. As you can see, I have only 2 entries. Being a new full time stay at home mommy, preparing for baby #3 whom is due at any moment and trying to find time to write has been a huge challenge. I have decided that I really need to make the time to sit down and begin... Let's begin with this week. The weather has been unseasonably warm this week. We have had more outings than normal. We have our regular playgroup session every Thursday. Mark came with me this Wednesday for my weekly Doc visit which was a nice change. They went to the playground at least twice this week! We played out on the front porch, and a few trips to the corner & grocery stores. Phew! Lots of walking for a very prego mommy but good times! I did have a few days of very intense lower back pain. I thought ...

Vacation

Is it a rule of the universe that when you travel with your kids they must always get sick? We just returned from visiting my mom in Florida for just over a week and this trip was actually different! Instead of one kid getting a little cold, two kids got a virus that landed one in the ER and one at an urgent care clinic! To make matters even worse, my tooth chipped and I had to go to a dentist the morning of our return flight! Talk about a whirlwind! Now were are back home and I have the pleasure of schedulling all of our follow up care. Love it!

Momma needs some hair help

I had wanted to go natural for quite some time but never knew what or how to do it. So, I didn't. Than I had daughters. 3 in fact, and since I'm the mommy, I'm in charge of their hair. I did my best braiding but it was nothing adventurous. So, after staying home with them for just over a year and NOT having my own money, I stopped perming my hair. Then I found a 'natural' salon and I did the 'big chop'! My husband calls me an african now and my girls loved it, at first. Now, it seems I'm at even more of a loss of what to do. I wash and condition it when I can and I wear it in a, mostly, unkempt afro! Then I found this amazing woman on YouTube and she's teaching me how to deal with my girls' hair. I have tried a few cute styles and thank's to her chanel, washing and detangeling their heads has been SOOOO much easier!  One day I'll have time to try her techniques on my own head. Check her out here. This is what MAK would LOVE for me to do...
