Bye Bye Baby Stuff (Hello Melancholy)

(Sorry for that interruption. I now bring you the post that was SUPPOSED to be up before a freak started coveting my child) I’m feeling a little sad today. In an effort to rid my very small house of all space-sucking baby gear, I’ve been gathering everything up and slowly getting it out of here. Last...

Giving Birth Wasn’t Enough?

March 12, 2006

Here at IzzyMom, there’s not much I won’t write about. Within reason, anything is fair game. That said, I’d like to discuss something that is causing me some serious distress lately. I know “crotch couture” has already been touched upon over at Motherhood Uncensored recently but seriously, what IS the deal with body hair...

Did I Really Say I was Going to Blog This?

March 2, 2006

I’m a fan of consignment stores. I truly think they are great. Without them, what would we do with all the assloads of baby and kid junk that we’ve acquired that they so quickly outgrow or get tired of? Yes, I know I can give it to the Salvation Army and many times I...

January 17, 2006

“Aunt Flo” Ugh…I’ve always hated that expression that signified the arrival of of one’s period. Why can’t women just say “I got my PERIOD”? Today I got mine for the first time in 16 months. I knew it would return eventually but I was rather enjoying NOT having the bloating and the zits and...

Chasing Sleep

December 31, 2005

My little guy is getting a tooth and he’s not sleeping for more than a couple hours (or less) at a time. This means I am not sleeping at all. *yawn* I’ve tried everything. Anyone know any secrets to settling cranky, teething babies? You’d think I’d never done any of this before but I...

More fun than a poke in the eye…

December 29, 2005

Thursday 1:15 am In case you were wondering what I did all day today, in no particular order… - Read daughter 2,817 books. Okay, it was more like 7. - Briefly considered going to the grocery store. Decided hunger was more palateable - Found daughter slathering herself from head to toe in body glitter gel. Decided there were...

Your Tummy is STILL Fat

December 23, 2005

My stepmom recently left a copy of US magazine at my house. I usually reserve my celebrity catch-up reading for the doctor’s office, but having recently given birth, I was very compelled to read about how celeb moms are under such pressure to lose their baby weight and of course, all about their personal...

Not now…Mommy has a broken neck

December 19, 2005

As I sit here, I can turn my head in only one direction; left (Fortunately, I can use my computer. There is a God.) It all started early this morning when the devil baby decided to melt down after a rather pleasant time. He’s sick so I guess he’s feeling really crappy and I...
