About this blog: I'm a wife, stay-at-home mom, home cook, marathon runner, and PhD. I recently moved to the Silicon Valley after completing my PhD in Social Psychology and becoming a mother one month apart. Before that, I ran seven marathons including Chicago and Boston. Exercise is an integral part of my life. I hope to one day go back to long distance running and tackle the New York City Marathon. Right now I run after my one year old son. Although I am a stay-at-home mom, we are rarely "at home." My mom also stayed at home with my brother and me. She warned me that, although rewarding, it can be isolating. So, with her help, I learned the importance of getting out into the community and meeting other mothers. On the rare occasion when I am at home and have a hand or two free, I squeeze in time to scrapbook. As a new mom, many challenges are thrown my way. I hope my opinions, triumphs, and struggles help experienced parents reminisce, new parents cope, and parents-to-be get an honest glimpse of what the first years of motherhood can entail.

Our family is loving
Carter's dinosaur baby girl clothes. Our littlest loves playing with her brother's dinosaurs. We don't know yet if she is a budding paleontologist or if she just likes following in her brother's footsteps. Either way, when I saw dinosaur themed baby girl clothes, I knew that they would be perfect for her.
Our middle child has a handful of outfits that match her little sister. They have a couple matching pajamas, dresses and shirts. And whenever she asks for more, it won't be challenging to find matching outfits.
But we don't have any matching outfits for baby and her big brother. I could buy gender neutral pajamas, but I doubt our son would be very excited about them. These baby girl dinosaur clothes are perfect. Their outfits aren't an exact match, but I love giving our son and baby another connection that they didn't have before. It gives our son an excuse to
chat with baby about dinosaurs. Soon enough we may need to start baby's own collection of dinosaur toys.
