My name is Jennifer. I am 33 weeks pregnant and my hormones are getting the better of me. Most times when I feel myself feeling too “whatever” I don’t act on it, I just walk away and steam or cry in the bathroom and feel really [insert emotion here]. Later I can look back and [...]

Today is our anniversary. We’ve been “together” for a little under 12 years, married today for 8 of them. Isn’t that weird? It’s weird. So far I’m having a not too terrible day of watching Beauty and the Beast with my little beauty while Kevin has his first day of school. We are supposed to [...]

These days I feel like I live on a racetrack, running round and round trying to keep up with the cars flying by me. The biggest reason I haven’t been blogging isn’t because I have nothing to say. All day long I write in my head amazingly humorous, incredibly witty (shut up, I’m freakin’ hysterical) [...]

This pretty much sums up our trip to Chicago: Beautiful walks along the lake, running in the gardens at Northwestern, dancing to music in the dorm, the wind blowing through our hair and lots and lots of food and fun with good friends. Last year I came back with about 500 photos. This year I [...]

Kevin: Etta, I’m going to judo chop your face. And when they ask why I’ll say ‘Because your mom – is craaaazy.’ Kevin: She made fun of my Flash check today. Me: Who, the realtor lady? Kevin: Yeah, I asked if she got my check and she said, “Oh yeah, Flash”. And I was thinking [...]
