I have a bone to pick with this guy:
You know him, he’s the Dyson Vacuum inventor. Sir James Dyson, to be exact.
But I like to call him Sir D, because it makes him sound like a rapper, and that’s cool.
Not so cool? Sir D has led me astray in my domestic duties.
I first started [...]

In two days I’m heading down to New Jersey for Johnson & Johnson’s Camp Baby.
Kind of wishing J&J had decided to plop down their headquarters somewhere with weather more akin to, oh I don’t know, Bermuda… but I suppose New Brunswick, NJ will do.
I’m most excited about meeting some of the Mommy bloggers I’ve had [...]

Yesterday was my little baby girl’s birthday!
Ryder turned 6 years old!
So today’s Throwback picture is of Ryder on the first day we met her - March 23, 2002. She was 7 weeks old!
I brought her home from Pennsylvania, where she was born, and put her on my Mom and Dad’s front porch for them [...]

A few pictures from our vacation in breathtakingly beautiful Rangeley, Maine…
The view from our condo’s deck:

Yes, my doggies came on vacation… and they played…
… and slept:
They weren’t the only animals there, [...]

I don’t know what I was thinking yesterday, but I decided to join my brother and sister-in-law yesterday in a 10K race.
That’s 6.2 miles.
Last year I ran a half marathon, but that was after a lot of training. And I was in good shape.
Right now, I’m just not.
But the three of us have signed [...]

Three years ago today, on December 4, 2004, I became the wife of a wonderful, handsome, funny, brilliant, loving, incredible man.
We had planned our wedding in less than 5 months, knowing we wanted to get married in the winter, but that we didn’t want to wait a year and a half from the day we [...]

One of our holiday traditions used to be the family trek to the tree farm to pick out the Couto Family Christmas Tree.
We would usually go the Friday or Saturday after Thanksgiving, pick out the perfect tree, take turns cutting it down with our saw, and spend that evening decorating our fragrant, freshly cut evergreen.
The [...]

The guy behind this very sweet face has one very bad habit.
Seth is a chewer.
Or rather, I should more accurately say, a destroyer of most things he can get his teeth into.
I have a shelf of toys that I’ve had to take away from him (the ones that have been salvageable, at least) because [...]

A la David Letterman, in no real particular order, here’s my list of the top 27 things about my 27th birthday:
27. Since it was on a Sunday, I was able to have an entire weekend birthday celebration!
26. Watching the Boston College football team lose to Florida State (Steve went to Boston University and therefore revels [...]
