Last weekend we drove down to Houston to celebrate my oldest sister, Michelle’s, oldest daughter’s graduation from high school. We did this three years ago when her son, Mitch, graduated, but for some reason having TWO kids in college seems more insane to me! Cassie is a brilliantly bright young lady who will be studying…
Must-Discuss TV!
Is it ironic that in my last post, I said I don’t watch a lot of TV, but this post is all about TV?? It’s true, I don’t have a lot of shows that I watch. My “normal” schedule involves a full day’s work and usually school, but now I’ve added a baby on top…
Surprises and "Well, Duh’s"
The past two weeks are, and continue to be, really, really, super challenging as a working mommy of a four month old. The poor little Monkey has had a cold for two weeks that has progressed to bronchiolitis. As many of you have seen from Facebook, we are trying anything and everything to get him…
Walt is Four Months!
Here we are at another monthly update! This is a fun one, because Walt saw the doctor at four months old, so I have all sorts of fun stats. I realize the second pic is kinda blurry, but I had to showcase how happy Walt is in his Bumbo. He loves to be big. 🙂 …
Our Favorite Things: Part II
Now that I’m a full-fledged working mom, I took a look at our baby inventory and realized what I loved 3 months ago has evolved. Don’t get me wrong, our first set of favorite things was absolutely essential at the very beginning. We just have a new set of faves. So, here goes. 1. The…
First Easter… but no Easter Bunny!?
Happy Day-After-Easter, ya’ll! Yesterday we celebrated a fantastic Easter… Walt’s first to be exact. But what terrible parents are we that we didn’t even attempt an Easter basket for our little bunny? I finally decided that anything I would have bought Walt, would have been for me anyways. And, I did indulge in a pretty…
Walt is Three Months Old!
When Walt was just a mere few weeks old, I thought it would take FOREVER for him to graduate from the often-termed “Fourth Trimester”. While visiting our newest favorite infant, Reese Z, I was quickly reminded how that time seems so long b/c you’re basically awake all the time. It’s not to say that those…
Baby Reese Abigail Zicchino is HERE!
I mentioned it was a big week! One of my BFF’s and Grammy Girls, Stori, had her baby this week! We were laughing earlier about how we were SO close to having overlapping maternity leaves. So close by TWO days! Reese Abigail Zicchino made her early appearance on Tuesday evening as a surprise to everyone…
Hi-ho! It’s off to work I go!
Well, it seems I have survived my first week back at work (almost). What a week it has been. Overall the transition is going relatively smoothly. I am not a huge fan of getting up in the 6 o’clock hour in order to be ready before Walt. I’m also not a fan of getting up…
I’m gonna miss…
In honor of my last few days at home with the Munka Man, I thought I’d share all the things that I will miss. Of course I will miss the little guy the most! Like our special times playing and feeding. That totally goes without saying. But, I have developed some shameless passions while staying…
