How being a parent has changed me (and not)
December 13, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Being Mom, Uncategorized |
…So far. I’m 2 months into this gig and while from experience I know that it will take me about 12-14 months to really settle into a new chapter I feel like I need to share this with you before my new normal takes over so completely that I can’t remember how it was before, which […] more

Figlet is born!
October 22, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Being Mom |
It seems cruel to make those of you who aren’t following me on facebook to wait until the Nov IRL post (which will be done in similar fashion to September and October, covering the last 10….I mean 11 weeks….of pregnancy) to find out that Paige Raylene was born! The stats for those of you that […] more

September 30, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Mel's Life, Pregnancy |
Instead of 20 weeks in this month’s IRL of pregnancy adventures, it’s a mere 10. Mostly because the post was getting grumpy at how many pictures were required for weeks 21-30. You can expect weeks 31-40 to be October IRL post…which will include a guaranteed baby picture since one way or another she’ll be OUT […] more

IRL July 2015 (Life is very good)
July 29, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Mel's Life, Pregnancy |
Every time that I think about bringing Farley back from Aurora’s and switching her out for MerryLegs I just can’t bring myself to do it yet. Farley is getting such a better work out up there than she ever would down here (hills!) and she’s so much happier being on pasture with friends. Extra time […] more
Running during pregnancy (with riding pictures)
July 22, 2015 | Posted by Melinda under Mel's Life, Pregnancy, Uncategorized |
I went riding with a friend on Saturday. Saturday’s mission was a calm, positive ride on Michele’s new mule (a Molly named Crystal) that may eventually do endurance if the mule enjoys it. It was a good, boring ride so there’s not much to tell. So instead, you get to enjoy pretty pictures of […] more
