Things aren't what they used to be.


Friends...I have a confession to make. I didn't want to say anything, because it just makes it more "real".

Remember this post? The one in which I boasted about my fabulous, incredible *sob*, wonderful bladder?

Well, things...*sniffle*...I just...*cry*...IT'S JUST NOT THE SAME!!!

I don't understand this. How can I make through 5 pregnancies, 5 deliveries (a couple those including 14 inch heads), and come out with an unscathed bladder...only to have it all go to pot (*snort* pun intended) on me a couple years later?!

How is this fair???? I don't get this!

Here's the dealio (yes, another Despicable Me quote)...if my bladder is full to bursting, things are a little bit what I'd call "difficult to control". If we aren't at the "over capacity" stage, things are still golden (and keep in mind, my "full bladder" is probably somewhere in the 1-2 gallon range).

Yes, if my bladder is under the 1 gallon limit, everything is just fine...I can laugh, sneeze, jump on trampolines all day. Well, all day until my bladder exceeds it's special little "over capacity-ness". Then look out.

I'll knock down children and old ladies on my quest to get to the nearest bathroom. I'll leap tall buildings in a single bound, just to empty this bladder before it decides to start on it's own!

It's a shame. The old girl has forsaken me.

Time to amp up the Kegels. (You just did one, didn't you?)

  6. Yes I did! Ha ha. My mom has always dubbed me the "camel" of the family for my ability to stop once to their three times on road trips. It pains me to know this may have an end one day :(

  19. LOL. I think many of us are right there with you.

  20. LOL, thanks for the reminder, and yes, I did do one. Or more. Also, having five kids, I can totally relate!! Almost ran over a lady with a kid doing the pee-pee dance the other day to get to the potty first. Figured it would be less embarrassing for a child to wet themselves than me!! Getting older stinks!

Coming soon...

Come here looking for the tutorial? It can be found here:  Halo Braid Tutorial!  Let me know how it goes! I had something in mind to try on Baby Girl's hair the other day...my best bud, Dr. J, did something similar to it on Belle once, and I was trying to replicate it. Instead, I got this: Isn't it pretty?! It didn't take nearly as long as it looks and isn't nearly as intricate as it looks! Vlog tutorial coming soon...(for those of you waiting, I'm sorry it's taking me so long!)

Halo Braid Tutorial!

How appropriate, "halo braid", no?! ;) Finally, I have this ready for you...I apologize for the delay! This braid looks intricate, but is really quite easy and quick to pull off...the original video (prior to the warp speed braiding...watch the video to see what I mean) was just a bit over 8 minutes long...not too shabby! So, here you go...right in time for you to try it out on your little girl for Easter!

Crock-Pot Fajitas

You! Yes, YOU!! You must stop whatevertheheck it is that you are doing, and make this recipe. Right now. Tonight. Well...wait. You should probably finish reading this post first...you know...so you know how to make it... But then...STOP! STOP everything, make this, and thank me later! Oh, hold it...wait just a sec (again)...actually, I got this recipe from Melissa...yes, the Melissa of this story ! And this story ...which, well...is the same story, just told two different ways! ;) So, you can thank her...I guess. Well, in any event...prepare your tastebuds to be tantalized! You'll need this: And, this: You'll also need chicken breasts or steak, but since photographing your "main ingredient" is, like, soooo passe, I've left it out. ( Ahem... ) Just keepin ' up with the times, friend. So...slice up those peppers and onions into cute little strips... And...try your best to not slice up the little fingers that are sneaking away pepper strips... (Lemme just inte
