My Husband is a Better House Spouse Than I Was

April 23, 2019 Zoe

Working out of the home has highlighted an amazing new development in my marriage that I thought I’d share with all of you. Now that I’m the one working out of the house, Dean has taken over the home duties. It’s not to say that he isn’t working – he is! But he is also picking up all the house spouse stuff, and he is SO much better at it all than I ever was. It’s actually in line with what we agreed when we first met. So let me take you on a trip through the past before I explain how awesome Dean is as a house spouse. Continue Reading

First Three Weeks at Work – My Shonda Rhimes Moment

April 21, 2019 Zoe

In my last blog, I told you that I’d started a new job. I know I owe all of you an update about it, but that’s honestly not what I want to write about today, so you’ll just have to keep waiting for more news about that. Instead, I want to tell you about mom guilt, overcoming it, and then getting hit HARD. Continue Reading

[POSTPONED] Win tickets to Circus Spectaculum, the all-human AZ circus

March 5, 2019 Zoe

I have a kid under five, so I like to think my life is a circus. In fact, when bedtime has been particularly rough, I’ve wondered if I could sell her to the circus (joking! I swear!). But then I got invited to Circus Spactaculum, and it sounds way cooler than I’d imagined. I’ve been given some VIP tickets to a special showcase of the circus, and you can join me!

But before I tell you how to win tickets, you should know WHY you want to win. I mean, other than getting the chance to spend the evening with me and my charming family. Allow me to copy and paste the official language sent to me by the PR, and then I’ll tell you why I’m amped to go. Continue Reading

Videos for Toddlers & Kids: Doc McStuffins

February 21, 2019 Zoe

Even before we gave Harley her own tablet, we were looking for video content for her. The reality is that screen time isn’t evil, and honestly, sometimes we all need time to zone out – her in front of a video and me without a little one demanding my complete attention. That said, I still like to encourage her to watch things that expand her mind, teach her something, or are generally worthwhile. I’ve found a bunch of awesome shows for kids, and I thought I’d share them with you. This time, it’s Doc McStuffins. Continue Reading
