Coming to a Nursery Near You

Archive for May 16th, 2008

I got your attention, didn’t I? LOL  Just a heads up – Sara over at One is Too Many is participating in MommyFest and is giving away CHOCOLATE.  Nuf said.  WHAT have you got to lose?

Happy Blog Party! (Wow, does that sound optimistic, or WHAT?! LOL) Seriously, welcome to Coming to a Nursery Near You. My name is Dawn. I am a 41 yr old stay at home mom of 3 beautiful kids. I started this particular blog on the very day that I found out that I was pregnant with my 3rd child, way back on June 23rd, 2006. It seems like forever ago, but only 2 years in reality. Since then, I’ve written about my pregnancy and the (un)fun of being pregnant for the 3rd time while trying to manage two other kids. I’ve written IN DEPTH about the birth and subsequent months of breastfeeding, dealing with a very difficult 4 yr old, and my eventual diagnosis with post partum depression… which turned into a diagnosis of severe clinical depression (I don’t think I ever put a name on it though). Oh and I’ve written about my health problems. I’ve also written about the joy of having these 3 beautiful children in my life. In short, I write about MY life. My real life. The good, the bad, the ugly. I have a small but loyal readership and I am so very grateful to have them here – I love me my readers! So sit back, grab a cuppa and join me for my life.

I’m jumping on the Party Wagon and joining Mommyfest 2008! AND I’m offering a prize… well, FOUR prizes, actually. All you have to do to be eligible is to grab my button over there in the sidebar, throw it on your blog and then sign Mr. Linky. On Friday, I’ll pick FOUR of you (using random.org) to win a ONE YEAR SUBSCRIPTION to Wondertime Magazine. Wondertime Magazine isn’t your typical PARENTING magazine. It’s got advice, sure – but it’s also got fun things to do with your kids, and for yourself. I love it, so I’m sharing it with you! (and no, I didn’t get them to give them to me lol)

Appetizer

What is the nearest big city to your home?

• I think we’re equal in distance from Boston, MA and Burlington, VT

Soup

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest, how well do you keep secrets?

• I’d say an 8.

Salad

Describe your hair (color, texture, length).

• My hair is shoulder length, kind of fine, and ummm “chestnut” brown with a silver streak that runs from behind my bangs all the way to the ends.

Main Course

What kind of driver are you?  Courteous?  Aggressive?  Slow?

• Since I’ve been living in a small town, I’ve become much more courteous.

Dessert

When was the last time you had a really bad week?

• I would say the week following my surgery in January

Why don’t you head over and join in the Friday’s Feast fun too
