I mentioned last week that I was considering getting more help with Tiara. Before I left on vacation I called the agency that is supposed to provide a caretaker for Tiara 20 hours per week and have not done so for the past year. This agency has a contract with Regional Center and they are…

We are back from New York!
I have to say we did so many things in New York I can barely remember everything we did, but we had the BEST time ever! We walked almost 5 miles everyday, took the subway, a handsome cab, a rickshaw and lots of regular cab rides. We arrived at Samantha’s apartment on the upper Eastside…
Can women really do it all?
Saturday, I was on the computer blog hopping while Trinity was sitting at the table eating her lunch. Tiara was coloring and we were wasting some time until it was time for Trinity’s gymnastics. I ran across a blog written by a women whose tagline went something like this: working Mom of two toddlers, blogger…
A few interesting things I have seen in the past 2 days
On Wednesday I went for a walk by myself. I don’t think I have done this in over 2 years. It was really cold and Tiara wanted to see her grandma so she came over to visit earlier than usual. I was going to work out at the gym but somehow Lou took my car…
A crazy night and why I need to worry
Our trip to NYC is only a week and half away and my biggest concerns are Tiara will get sick before or while I am gone and Lou won’t wake up in the middle of the night when she needs something. As every family knows, Mothers are Fathers are wired completely differently. Moms hear everything…
one year anniversary for my blog and some exciting news!
One year ago today I posted my first blog entry about Trinity trying out for Junior Lifeguards. I have beat the odds by sticking with my blog for an entire year, which is amazing for me. Apparently most bloggers quit within a few months and normally I would fall under the quitting statistic because I…
Valentine’s Day, just more work for me!
This is how much I care about Valentine’s Day. Zero. This was my conversation Wednesday morning while Lou was getting ready for work. Lou: So are we exchanging Valentine’s? Me: Well, I made cookies for my sister’s kids, and plan on baking something for our Mom’s. I bought each girl something small and I was…
What Would tiffani Do? Problems with the neighbor kid…
I have received several questions for my new series “What Would tiffani Do?” and have decided I don’t want to wait to post my responses so I am going to answer the questions as they come in. Here is the first question I received. Hey Tiffani! Recently a family moved in next to us….
When nothing you do seems right…
Today I was overwhelmed with the feeling that I screwed up again. It’s that moment when you feel heavy, sad and disappointed in yourself and wonder how you could have made the same mistake again. For every lesson I have learned in this life, the one I can’t seem to master is, how to keep…
Are you jealous?
Tiara hasn’t been having as many seizures lately and as a result her speech is improving daily. Yesterday she learned the word jealous and won’t stop asking everyone “are you jealous?” It all started when she gave my mother in law a big hug and looked back at me with a sassy smile. My mother…
