A Lady With A Baby: HDFS (Hot Dog Finger Syndrome)
http://tiffanykarin.blogspot.com/2013/04/hdfs-hot-dog-finger-syndrome.html
Tuesday, April 23, 2013. HDFS (Hot Dog Finger Syndrome). In honor of our wintery spring day, I wanted to share my super strange and kind of funny phenomenon that happens when my body gets too cold and then warms up too fast. Are you ready? Here's my hand on a normal day. And here's my hand after working in the basement with the heat off on a cold day and then going up and sitting in front of the fire. Happy sleety/snowing Tuesday in April! I am SO sorry! It look super uncomfortable! B in Real Life.

A Lady With A Baby: New Big Boy Bed (Part 1)
http://tiffanykarin.blogspot.com/2013/04/new-big-boy-bed-part-1.html
Friday, April 26, 2013. New Big Boy Bed (Part 1). So when you no longer have a truck at your disposal, what do you do about buying a twin mattress? You just order one on Amazon. Seriously. Free shipping even. Nice. Hudson was so stinkin' excited when his bed came.although, I'm not sure either of us really got it. It came in a bag. Cut the plastic off, it sort of inflates itself, and viola! A mattress, with coil springs, mind you. So silly! Hudsons expressions were perfect! April 27, 2013 at 10:51 AM.

The Pitter Patter Diaries: The Gift of a New Perspective
http://www.thepitterpatterdiaries.com/2015/07/the-gift-of-new-perspective.html
Thursday, July 16, 2015. The Gift of a New Perspective. My mom went in for shoulder surgery today. She admitted she was scared, more so than ever before. I remember my own fears about my laparoscopic procedure just a couple months ago, so miraculously, I was able to muster up some empathy for her rather than mock her in true bratty, childish fashion. And I have been a brat. After graduate school, I moved to Michigan to begin work, and the woman who grew up in Calcutta moved to Oregon to escape the Texas ...

A Lady With A Baby: Weekend at the Hamptons
http://tiffanykarin.blogspot.com/2013/05/weekend-at-hamptons.html
Tuesday, May 7, 2013. Weekend at the Hamptons. Okay, it was a Thursday. And it was the Hampton Inn. If you are a lady with a baby or small children, you know that sleep is a luxury. I can count on 2 hands the number of uninterrupted nights of sleep I've had in the last 3.5 years. I've been dreaming of a solo night in a hotel for the last 6 months for sure. You know you've thought about it too. Well, I did it. Once the boys rolled into town we were outta there! Ahhh, how I love thee. And it was snowing!

Thursday, July 23, 2015. Loving Lavishly: How to Re-brand the Church of No. Post-modern people are much more intrigued by our hope than our doctrine. Until our existential hope, our serenity, our wholeness, our love, our sanctity is visible, they won't listen to our propositions.". Catherine of Siena Institute. What she found were people who were obsessed with getting out of Mass on time, rude to one another, unconcerned with their neighbors, and complaining about church altogether. It is heartbreaking, ...

http://www.thepitterpatterdiaries.com/2015/07/a-mid-week-getaway-meeting-father.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. A Mid-Week Getaway and Meeting Father Robert Barron. This is my life this summer . . . or at least the last week. The wheels had barely touched down after jetting back from my weekend getaway to Charleston, and the wheels of our swaggerwagon hit the road for a couple days away. The unpack to repack was a dumping of the suitcase into the laundry and filling it back up with whatever clean I could find. Laundry be damned! To think of it as such or you know - wreckage of the future....

Now that we are full swing into Advent (and I am loving that I made myself do all that extra prep for our Advent calendar), I realize that I haven't spent more than a moment's thought on our Christmas wishlists! How perceptive of Hallie to provide her Ode to Amazon.com for this week's Five Favorites. I've already bought everyone's books, and Jennifer's book isn't available for pre-order yet (ummmm.come on Ignatius! Photo from flickr.com.
