About Me

PA, United States
For now, I work as a stay-at-home mom of three beautiful children (a boy who is 2, a girl who is 4, and a step-daughter who is 18 and currently attending American University, Go Alex!!) while trying desperately to finish my dissertation in sociology. My husband and I have been together for 10 wonderful years and he works as a software architect. While he helped me design this blog, he cannot be liable for its content. I decided to start blogging because: 1) Many of my mommy friends have blogs and I was tired feeling left out, 2) I needed a place to vent my frustrations about my graduate program and rave about my children and my husband, 3) a blog can keep our extended family (who live very far away) updated, and 4) as fellow mommy blogger once told me (thanks Patty), a blog is a historical record that can later be shared with your children.

Halloween Day

We had such a great day today, well at least Maya did. Armani desperately needed a nap. This afternoon we went to a Halloween playgroup and enjoyed the beautiful weather (65 degrees today). Maya had fun running around in her costume and playing with the other kiddos. Armani was not so happy and spent most of the time crying and wanting mommy to hold him. He didn't warm up until the playgroup was over and wouldn't let me take any pictures of him. Gotta love the two's!

Thanks for hosting a great playgroup Sarah!
