Simplify your work-at-home life

by Karen on January 23, 2012

This post will speak to a limited part of my audience, I know. But when I began working from home almost two years ago (seriously? has it been that long?), I made a lot of mistakes. It would have been nice to have some tips and advice from someone who had worked through all the [...]

2011 in photos

by Karen on January 6, 2012

It seems that pretty much all we did last year (aside from moving twice and buying our house) was watch Judah grow. I wouldn’t trade a second of it.

Twelve months

by Karen on November 30, 2011

Judah is a WHOLE YEAR old. Bonkers. He’s working on walking, but his balance still isn’t so good. He’ll take a step or two on his own, and then he plops himself back down onto his butt. He prefers crawling, but he seems to get more interested in the idea of walking on two feet [...]

Working mom

by Karen on November 8, 2011

I have some news today that I’m so excited to share. For the past few months, Tony and I have been discussing the possibility of me finding a part-time job after Judah turns 1 at the end of this month. Now that we’ve bought a house, we really want to ramp up our efforts to [...]
