Noob 2.0 is our Lil Miss Independent. She dresses herself every morning from head to toe, including all the mismatched bling. It’s absolutely critical for her to be wearing at least one piece of jewelry everyday. She runs around in Minnie Mouse heels like she was born on a French runway. Even though she’s the definition of “girly girl,” she’s… Read More
Tooth Fairies, Leprechauns and Other Big Lies
Let Me Introduce Myself Hi, I’m Noob Mommy. I used to blog about my two noob babies. Looks like that was over a year ago!

On MWF, I usually lift weights in the garage during NB2.0’s nap time, but I was in such a funk that I thought it might be better just to slip back… Read More

I grew up feeling out of place a lot of the time, and I definitely went through many stages of identity crisis just trying to belong. I went from Montessori to Lutheran school and finally… Read More
To Compare or Not Compare, That is the Question
NB2.0 just turned 16-months-old, and the most exciting development right now (besides getting in three canines simultaneously and drooling like a bloodhound) is that she’s learning more words! Sometimes learning a new word is something she practices for about a week and then one morning she’s got it. Other times, she’ll pull a Word Ninja on us and parrot a… Read More
