Everything is changing

I think I'm done btw-with nursing that is.  And now, on another too much information rant...many women, I'm told, get what I'm experiencing once they quit nursing.  It's basically a huge hormonal imbalance that makes you have headaches, mood swings and other greatness.  Anyone else know much about this secret?  The funniest part is, I don't really drink much but, I've been loving having a few drinks here and there lately.  I was told that a desire for alcohol is a symptom. (I call it a temporary treatment) Don't worry, I'm not an alcoholic, just a mom…………                                                                               Read the rest of Kori’s latest blog post “Band on the Diaper Run” at BabbleBlog.com   

It's so hard to say goodbye

I think I've said this before...I'm horrible with goodbyes.   My family has pointed this out to me since I was 8.   That might be one of the reasons why I like my job.  Touring allows me to see loved ones frequently.  The only way to make goodbyes feel better is learning to say "see ya later" instead of "goodbye."  I've recently taught this to Mags. The reason being:  My daughter has apparently inherited the heart-wrenching, departure thing I have and it's hard to watch.........                            Read the rest of Kori's latest blog post "Band on the Diaper Run" at BabbleBlog.com

Going solo for the first time

I have taken 2 trips over the past 2 weeks.  Alone. (no kids, no husband).  I
went to hang with my sister and her two new twins and 3 year old.  I
realized, I really love them all.  I also found out (duh) that twins
are a lot more work than one.  I have a ton of respect for people with
double duty. I fell asleep with a twin in my arms every day that I was
there.  She has a 3 year old too.  I'm starting to think she wins in
the supermom department.

These trips mark the first time I've ever left June, Magnolia and Jason
all at once.

Hangin with DJ Lance Rock is...Awesome

While in LA, we witnessed Depeche Mode playing in the streets. But that wasn't the highlight of our day (even though it was nice to hear Personal Jesus at sunset). Mags got to meet one of her idols (I'm pretty sure her other ones are Gramma, Cinderella and her dance teacher). She watched out the window for him and kept saying, "Are you sure he's real?"

treasures

Mags goes on "treasure hunts" almost daily on tour.  She finds beads,
money, any little piece of trash that has a slight sparkle.  She
occasionally finds something really cool like a keychain or a
necklace.  I swear she has supernatural powers for locating all things
shimmery. Oh, also, our amazing nanny, Julia bought a bag of beads
before this tour-hoping to up the standards of her normal hunt.  When
Mags really can't seem to find the real deal on the walks, Julia tosses
a few beads down when no one is looking.  Mags might have caught on by
the end of the tour...we heard her saying, "It's so strange.  I keep
finding the same kind of beads in Kansas, Minnesota, California..."
