First of all, I must thank you for the good hair comments from the Dollywood pictures. I’m not sure what prompted those comments as my hair was OUT OF CONTROL. This was, I’m sorry to admit, due to the fact that Ryan and I rode the log ride multiple times throughout our visit to Dollywood. [...]

At one point during our day at Dollywood, Ryan and Allie went to watch glassblowing (you think I’m kidding, but I COULD NOT MAKE THAT UP IF I TRIED). Roomie and I made a far healthier choice, finding a little table beside a bookstore where we could enjoy a chocolate chip cookie (or two). We [...]

I mentioned earlier this week that I took Roomie on a little vaycay this past weekend since I had Friday off from work (fall break, I love you!). She knew we were going out of town and part of what we were doing, but I had a few surprises thrown in as well. Because I’m [...]

Tip: when discussing Halloween with your favorite pregnant Roomie, it is perhaps best to avoid suggesting that she dress up as a hippo.

Roomie had a doctor’s appointment yesterday morning that we hoped would end with the doctor telling us that we had somehow missed the fact that she was in labor and needed to go to the hospital RIGHT THEN.

When I found out that Michael Hyatt, President and CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers, would be offering 200 bloggers the chance to review Lynne Spears’ new book Through The Storm, I instantly jumped on the chance. Now, I can guess what you’re thinking: why in the world would I want to read a book written [...]

EDITED TO ADD: This contest has ended, so all links below have been removed! Thanks! Ahem. In what can only be attributed to God’s timely provision, some lovely people from Microsoft and Mr. Youth (a PR firm) have given Starlite the opportunity to earn some major funds for our programs. They’re doing a promotional campaign [...]

I would love to tell you about the mini-vacation I took Roomie on this past weekend, but my laptop is currently dead as I wait for my friends at Gateway to revive it by sending me a new battery. I can’t wait to get the pictures off of it to show you what a fun [...]

I get asked a lot about my opinion on Facebook verses MySpace probably since I work with so many girls who use them. I’ve had accounts with both, but recently deleted my MySpace account because I feel like MySpace doesn’t have enough protection for minors and I just don’t want to support it. And now, [...]

Well, there’s still no Baby and, if this week’s doctor appointment can be trusted, there probably won’t be one for up to two more weeks. I KNOW. With this in mind, and the fact that Roomie is increasingly becoming less and less happy about remaining with-child-in-her-belly, I decided it was time to try to convince [...]
