2010 Simply Bulleted

2010  Simply Bulleted
My 2010 in no particular order: Pregnancy related nausea and food aversion. Ugh, blah, and boo. An awesome 2nd trimester. I wasn't too big and wasn't sick. I felt great. A return to eating meat and dairy after baby was born (also the return of sugar and fat addiction). Struggled and failed to g…

I laughed and was proud listening to her entertain herself (good way for Mama to get some extra sleep). I also heard this clicking sound that…

Little Bitty Baby Shoes

Little Bitty Baby Shoes
I love baby shoes. Even before I had Little Miss and didn't think too fondly of children, I thought their little shoes were the cutest thing ever. Little Miss has a nice collection of donated shoes (about 20 pairs). I bought her the below gold penny loafers from Trumpette (found a good deal on …
