Granted, I realize that my baby has already arrived (birth story coming soon!), I’m still reeling from how fast everything seemed to happen. Honestly, I should still be pregnant, you guys!

What Is It With Dads and Babies?

July 9, 2013 By Chaunie

Ok, fine, I admit it.  I’ve had a secret crush on Channing Tatum since I first swooned over his killer dance moves in Step Up. And yes, Ben’s ok with it. I even (gasp) got Ben to go watch the newest Channing movie a few weeks ago with me for our date night. (Check out…

About Chaunie

Hi, I'm Chaunie and I'm glad you're here! I admit this blog is a bit rusty, as most circa 2010-blogs are, but like us elder millennial moms ourselves, I figure it can still get the job done, am I right? So here's the deal: I'm a mom of five kids, teen to toddler, I've been a writer for about 10 years, mostly penning health articles in exchange for money to pay my bills, but after I was laid off, I decided it was now or never and I'm writing my first novel in a month. And I want you to be part of the process with me. So subscribe and get weekly emails with my latest juicy drafts. It's going to be fun. Read More…
