By Popular Demand...


Well hello there, blog fans. I decided to start this offshoot blog in an effort to keep all the baby junk I have to say off of my main blog and in one spot. I've heard once or twice (or 97 times) that people don't always want to hear my musings about The Bean, particularly when they, themselves, are Bean-less. Can you believe that my childless readers would prefer not to hear about diaper blow outs and teething and me playing a rousing game of “Where the Hell Did You Shoot That Booger”?? I, too, am shocked.

It’s incredibly difficult for me to write about my day to day without mentioning The Bean at least 47 times, since he is, as all parents know, an enormous part of my day. After all, without him who would watch me pee? Who would make sure I don’t get lazy and try to sit down to eat a breakfast or lunch each day? Who would keep me on my toes by doing things like hiding the tv remote under the dog bed/ in the fridge/ in the yard? Exactly. The Bean is incredibly important to me, and being a parent has unquestionably changed my life (for the better? Um, sure. We’ll go with that for now.) 

I have big plans to write about all of my truly favorite topics here: bodily fluids, evil Mommy Judgy McJudgersons, all of the strangers who want to comment on/ touch/ complain about my baby, etc. Being a parent has not only opened my eyes to the wonderful world of motherhood, it has also opened my eyes to how impressively inconsiderate, irritating, and socially inept the vast majority of people can be. Had I had any faith left in humanity whatsoever, becoming a mom wiped that slate clean for sure. 

From the creepy Chik Fil A Lady who would not stop trying to kidnap my baby to the Moron Hostess who couldn’t understand why my then 3 month old didn’t want a balloon and his own children’s menu, I have much to discuss. As always, feel free to comment and let me know what you think, what you want to discuss, and whether or not you think about me when you’re in the shower.

xoxo SpiderMama
