Kids are awesome and moms love their kids...but between the Raffi and the playdates and the nurturing and such, sometimes you need a quick break. Take a breather from the "mom (or dad) zone" for a few minutes. Put the baby in the crib, grab your tea, put your feet up and enjoy!

Mood Music - Spin Doctors


Hi hi y'all,

What a week! Busy, busy...lots of rain. At least it's Friday! I'm taking some vacation time from work today and next week. I'm hoping to get lots of house cleaning done, recharge my batteries and have lots of fun with my 'lil peanut.

Poor 'lil peanut is having a bad week too. He's got a lump on his head from tripping on a toy yesterday, and he's mega teething too. I took him to see Yo Gabba Gabba Live, and poor buddy was confused about why his tv pals were dancing live in front of him. Every time I tried to get him to dance, he would hug me tight. He had more fun riding the subway and eating a snack at Union Station than watching the show I think.

After his head bump and the concert and travelling all around, poor peanut had trouble falling asleep last night. He wouldn't let me or his dad put him to bed. I can normally calm him down with a little Baby Beluga action, but he wasn't buying it last night. I tried all of the kids songs I could with no luck. In desperation, I sang him a couple songs I know he likes to dance to...including Two Princes. It totally did the trick and he fell fast asleep. Thanks Spin Doctors!

XOXO,
Emily
