Life with Dudes Never Looked So Pretty
It is November. Which means it is officially time for all of your overzealous holiday loving friends to entirely forget about Thanksgiving and start bumping their Christmas jams and planning their Black Friday holiday shopping routes, like turkey day ain’t even a thing. via GIPHY Personally, that’s not my jam. Yes, I heart the holidays but mostly because it means I get to strategically gain
Mother’s Day is Sunday. If you’re just now Googling “Last Minute Mother’s Day Gifts,” you’re sad. And too late for most of the awesome around to arrive to you and your mama (or your wife for all of you Dads shopping) on time. I want to feel bad for you, but you’ve had since the second Sunday of May, 2014 to figure this out. And,
Valentine’s Day. Every single year it sneaks up on me. I’m busy recovering from the Christmas/New Year’s holiday shenanigans and from the biggest birthday party of the year (because Dude 3, my January baby, truly believes a birthday should be done right, and by right he means extensively) so when Valentine’s Day starts popping up in the stores around the first week of January I

Gifting season is upon us. Dude 3 spent his snow day composing his always compelling letter to Santa where he asked yet again for actual magic to occur in our home. His letter went something like, Dear Santa, blah blah blah I’m a good boy. Please bring me a robot that can do anything I ask including all of my homework. I also want it
Every year my husband begins badgering me some time in October about giving him a gift list. This is a direct quote from the email he sent me last month: “Please send links to the products, including color and size if applicable, of precisely what you want.” Ummmmm. I find this amusing for three reasons: First, hello, what happened to creativity and the element of
I. Have. A. TEENAGER. Deepbreath. Deepbreath. Super-big-deep-breath-probably-I’m-hyperventilating-now-OMG. It’s hard to even think about the fact that I am the mom to an official teenager. So many feelings. Okay, I’ll just say it, ALL OF THE FEELINGS. I’m sad and excited and anxious and proud. And having a really hard time figuring out what Santa is going to bring him this year (he’s over it, but
