		<description><![CDATA[Don't take out that milk carton ad just yet...I'm back!

Like so many of my other  ideas, this blog started off with a bang and then ended with a whimper.  It's kind of like the baby book I religiously journaled in almost daily...which eventually turned to weekly...then monthly and now bi-monthly updates.  Maybe I'll just update it when he goes off to college.

But thanks to my mommy friend, Tiffany, who just started her own blog,  http://newmommychaos.blogspot.com, I've been inspired to get more disciplined about my own blog.

Funny that I've been MIA due to lack of discipline because, in reality, I've been a lot more disciplined about taking care of myself. As a mom, you find yourself taking care of everyone else: the baby, the hubby(not a complaint because I have one of the greatest who helps out tremendously xoxoSMOOCHES TO YOU BABExoxo), the grandma (um, who's the parent again?) and just about everyone else you can think of and then you rank somewhere after the family pet.
