Today is a rather wet and rainy Friday morning and on my 'to do' list is, a night shift followed by another night shift. There will be no margaritas this weekend but plenty of work, sleep, coffee and cuddles with my boy. Sorry for the lack of posts this past week! I haven't had much time to myself.
I am not feeling particularly fabulous today but I guess that goes with busy work days and not a lot of downtime. My eyebrows are in need of a visit to the Aveda shop for a wax and my actual 'to do' list really needs some attention. Sometimes I struggle with managing today and living in the moment but also preparing for all of the upcoming tomorrows.
Yesterday I spent the whole day with a really sweet couple in the labor room. We clicked and got a long and after a marathon labor we had a delightful little 8 lb baby girl. Maybe tonight will be more of the same?
Just to add to this very rambling post is old photos of Ben from a few months ago. He figured out how to crawl under our very inappropriate glass coffee tables (with pointed edges) and got a little stuck in the process. Since these pictures were taken he has figured out how to crawl under the tables just fine. So, don't feel too bad about his little upset face in these photos!

Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!
