When you get that notion, put your backfield in motion: Is this thing on?

About Me

Location: South Carolina

I'm a 31 year old wife and mom living in the southeast. I've been married 3 years and I have one son and one daughter (aka the Gavinator and the Goose). Ever since becoming a mom there have been many moments that have caused me to declare "That's it, I'm officially a mom!". I'm not talking about the ordinary moments like the time I birthed my child through my va-jay-jay or nourished a child exclusively for 6 months with my breast milk alone. I'm talking about moments like the first time I went number two on the potty with a 1 year old on my lap or the first time I cleaned up my son's vomit without even gagging. Nevermind the fact I started a blog just to talk about being a mom. I am officially a mom.

Is this thing on?

I am busy planning for the Gooser's "age that comes after 11 months" birthday party this weekend and putting together a photo montage of the past 11 + 1 months so blogging is going to get put on the back burner for the next couple of days or so. Just didn't want you to think I was ignoring you.

What was that? No, really, it's not you, it's me. I have a lot on my mind and I'm just going to be really busy for the next couple of days. What? Of course you look great and that outfit! Yowza. What can I say? Have you lost weight? No, I'm not just saying that because I'm putting other things before blogging for you. It's just that the "age that comes after 11 months" birthday is a really special one and I have a lot to do. Fine! Be that way. So typical of you.

Anyhoo, if you're still talking to me I thought this would be a good time to open the blog up for questions. So, if you (and you know who you are) have any questions for me or if there is anything you would like to know about the Officially A Mom household then this is the post to leave them on.

Doggy style and no, we're not interested in a threesome (I figure that took care of probably the two most burning questions inquiring minds would want to know).

Anyway, I would be thrilled if you would give us some tips on what you are doing to celebrate. I'm still trying to decide how big these shin-digs are supposed to be (i.e. Do I invite my friends without kids, too? Because that's pretty much most of my friends at this point.) OK, sorry to ramble. But when you come up for air, give us the details!; 1:29 PM

Dammit Amanda you've crushed my fantasies already. What do I have to live for now?

My question is how the h-e-double-hockey-sticks do you get anything done with two little ones running around? I mean, I have a hard enough time just going to the bathroom some days.

Oh, yeah, your baby-wearing man helps. (sigh) I want one of those.; 3:39 PM
