Fears over having another child? You’re not alone. I’m Coleen and I’ve known Erin just about as long as I can remember (We were 10 when we met…timidly in fifth grade as we rehearsed our hilarious fifth grade musical production of Pandora’s Box.) I have an 18-month old little girl who is freaking awesome. She… [Read More]
Celebrating Pregnancy with Photos
Pregnancy is a time where everything is exciting. With my first I was OVER. THE. MOON. It had taken so long to get pregnant that I relished every bit of it – the queasiness, the growing belly, the kicks, even my leaky bladder. It was amazing. With my second, I remember being in awe of… [Read More]
Does pregnancy make your feet grow?
The short answer is yes, it can. But let’s back up. I’ve been a size 9 shoe since I was an early teen. My sister is a 9. My mom is a 9. So it sort of worked out since we could all share shoes should we need to. I have always been jealous of… [Read More]

My husband…the fabulous! (Or how to deal with your psycho pregnant wife)
This past weekend, I encountered something quite terrifying- my crazy, hormonal alter-ego. I knew she existed as I’ve had a few vague encounters with utter ridiculousness that almost put me over the edge, but have yet to truly come face to face with her. I’ve read about hormonal fits of rage during pregnancy, but truly… [Read More]
Oh the joys of getting bigger…
So today I’m getting dressed and I decide to wear this cute shirt that is totally trendy, but also has a drop waist so I don’t look like a cow in it. I know I need to wear a pair of black pants. Hmmmm, this could be a problem. All my black work pants have… [Read More]
