A Message On Mother’s Day 2013
People think that Mother’s Day is a day just for women who are are Mothers in the traditional sense of the word. I’ve never felt that way. I’ve grown up in a culture that truly believes in the “It takes a village” philosophy. Mamas can’t be everywhere all the time so that’s when other mama-figures [...]
View PostBeauty in Mommyhood – Elle is 3 Months Old!
Dear Elle, You are 3 months old. I type that with tears in my eyes because I remember being 3 months pregnant with you. Technically you have existed for well over a year and I’m just amazed at how perfectly you fit in my life and in this world. It’s true what they say. It [...]
View PostBeauty in Mommyhood – Elle Is 1 Month Old!
Wow. My little baby girl is already a month old. I’m all kinds of emotional about it. I’m so excited that she’s growing and thriving and becoming even more amazing each day. But I’m sad because well, she’s almost a big girl. Kind of. I know folx are like, “Come on, B. She’s only a [...]
Elle’s Birth Story

Baby Clumps has a cosmetics case!
Yes y’all. My child already has a cosmetic bag. And don’t go judging me. It’s not like I will have her wearing lipgloss just yet. In fact, I’m pretty old fashioned so even though her mommy is big into cosmetics, Baby Clumps probably won’t be allowed to wear anything until she’s in middle school. Maybe [...]
Baby Clumps: 34 Weeks
Yep. I’m still pregnant. I feel like I’ve been pregnant forever and yet people keep telling me I still have such a looooong way to go. Which just annoys me. Basically I’m cranky pretty much ALL the time. But I try not to look it. In fact, I try to leave the house looking as [...]
Baby Clumps: 32 Weeks + Leave Kate Middleton alone!
I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve done an update. The goal was to update weekly but yeah, that’s impossible because guess who has returned? FATIGUE!! Girl yes. It is back and it doesn’t give a darn what plans I have or how long my to do list is either. Fatigue is a thug. At 32 [...]
