When my genius of a husband can’t recover my data, you know it’s gone for good. If I have ever emailed you or would need to for any reason, please drop me a ‘how the hell are ya?” or something to muchmorethanamom@gmail.com so I can rebuild my address book. Otherwise…don’t ever expect to hear from [...]

I’ve been testing out the Theraplex products. I don’t write about probably 30% of the samples I receive and I don’t respond to 75% of the pitches emailed to me, so anything I do write about I generally have fairly strong feelings about one way or another. Not so much with this one, [...]

I totally forgot to post a Fun Fact Friday last week! Apparently y’all don’t give a crap about my fun facts because nobody notices. Harumph. Whether you care or not, here are some more! (Fertility edition, apparently, though that wan’t my original intention.) *I love love LOVE scuba diving! I have only done the real [...]

In real life, I’m often asked how I get Primo to eat so well. We’ve gone to birthday parties & lunch dates where he’s eaten a whole grain bun and fruit when the other kids are mowing through hotdogs and fluorescent orange noodles. Nary a hot dog has ever crossed the lips of [...]

I played at Swistle’s place and here’s my answer. Wanna play? A year ago, I was ~3 months pregnant with my daughter, my second and potentially last child (but probably not) and had a 16 month old son that was, and still is, a holy terror full of love. I was on summer vacation from [...]

I spent me evening playing with pictures instead of writing posts, so pictures are what you get. Who needs words, anyway? All dressed up for Grandpa’s visit…but she got dirty before he and Daddy got home from the golf course and was in her jammies when they got here! (Best hat ever, courtesy Posh Papoose.) In their [...]

Dearest Bella, I seriously can’t believe I’ve been holding you in my arms (as opposed to in my uterus) for half a year. (Plus a week - I’m a little late. I blame it on vacation.) My biceps are starting to believe it, though. You’re at a stage right now where you want [...]

Neither of my kids have ever been stellar nappers. The stars must be aligned just right and we must do a simultaneous and intricate dance performance to the sleep gods for anything over 20 minutes. Bella slept through the night from a few days old until about 5 1/2 months. Damned if both my [...]

Generally, when someone does something stupid it can be referred to as “Pulling a Nicole.” The Big Guy rarely does stupid things and I do stupid things, um…with astounding regularity. Last week while we were on vacation (which I’ll totally tell you about when I have a second to upload pics and unpack some underwear…we just got [...]

After four months of waiting, I finally got in to see my gay male hairstylist. You know they’re the best, right? I wanted a change for summer but I have strict criteria. -I don’t do short hair. I don’t ever want to see the point at which the hair leaves my head. -I wanted [...]

-”Eighth” is a really hard word to type properly when you’re typing fast. Apparently, so is “typing.” -We get phone calls several times a day from “Ontario” and “Minnesota,” always at nap, supper or bed time. We, of course, don’t ever answer but that doesn’t stop us from getting really, really pissed off. [...]

How did my baby get old enough to consume things other than breastmilk and her fingers and toes? If you could read the words on this page of Bella’s scrapbook, you would learn that she had her first food at 5.5 months, just like her brother. I wasn’t prepared so had nothing cooked for her. [...]

Mom on the Run tagged me for this running meme…way too long ago! Sadly, I’m only running about once a week right now, and it’s my own fault. 1. How would you describe your running 10 years ago? Ten years ago is almost out of reach in the far corners of my memory. [...]

We all need friends. Life is good when it has friends in it. There are many types of friends out there. The friends who you see at the school dropping of your kids, the ones you see at soccer/swimming with your kids, the ones you meet at work, the ones [...]

Hi! Please allow me to introduce myself…. My name is Multi-Tasking Mommy. My blog is called Circle of Life for a few reasons. One is that I LOVE the song, “Circle of Life” by Elton John and two, I truly believe that everything in life does come full circle, eventually, and I enjoy [...]

Welcome to this week’s edition of Fun Fact Friday! (Just a reminder that I completely stole this and can take no credit for anything other than the shitty writing and complete randomness…name stolen from Tessie via TNG. I kind of feel like I should tell you that every week so you don’t think I’m [...]

We tried both of these recipes: RECIPE 1 * 2 cups of flour (We only have whole wheat in the house so it was a bit grainy but not bad - could have blended it first I suppose.) * 2 packets of powdered drink mix (like Kool-Aid - no sugar [...]

To celebrate our great nation’s 141st birthday, we… -had a sleepover with my mother in law and her husband, -spent the morning at the spray park -had subs for lunch -got an amazing deal on 25 tenderloin steaks…half price because the butcher ordered too much -got 45 mm of rain in two hours -watched the lovely park that our yard opens [...]
