Greetings!
Hi! Welcome! Usually, when I find a new blog, I like to get a little bit of background information about the writer. If you are the same way, here you go:
–I live in the southeast part of the United States. I am a woman. I am married. I have a little girl known here as Little Girl.
–I work part-time as a university instructor and in research. Mostly I stay home.
–I struggled with infertility for 2.5 years before conceiving Little Girl. My ovaries are stupid (thanks PCOS!) but at least they got it together to make Little Girl. Then my breasts had issues making enough milk. For various reasons, I exclusively pumped my milk for 8.5 months. There is a lot in the archives about pumping and improving one’s milk supply (starting here).
–Husband is Swedish. We talk about moving to Sweden someday. Maybe someday soon.
I’d love to hear from you.

Hey! I am here via a comment you left on Kristin’s blog. I just wanted to agree that you do have the cutest baby! The post about your husband calling his family during Christmas dinner sort of made my heart ache, as that is the same way I feel when my husband talks to any of his family in AZ, NV or FL. They aren’t around the world, but they are far enough away to make seeing them very often pretty hard. Every time I’m reminded how much he sacrificed for us to be together…
so i quit bitching about the socks on the floor.
Love your blog :-)
Chris
