My week has been an eventful one! I’ve spent all week dealing with a teething baby, a huge freelance writing deadline, and learning more about social networking.

The teething baby and I had to see the doctor after a day of screaming (him, not me…although, I was close to it). We found out that on top of trying to get 6 new teeth at one time he also has a bit of thrush. So, we got some meds for that and he seems to be doing better.

I am so behind on a freelance writing project that I’m spending every free moment writing. I even managed to write one story mainly on my phone!

Lastly, I am twittering, blogging, face-booking, Pinteresting, Wunderkiting, Google+ing and more. I was fortunate enough to be invited to learn all about West Elm’s summer line. So much pretty stuff all in one place! And, I’ve been gathering sponsors and supplies for the April 14 blogger meet-up! That is just over ONE week away!!

Last week I had the opportunity to visit OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry) for the first time. I went with an 8-year-old girl and my almost 8-month-old son. It was so cool to see how into everything the 8-year-old got. I’m a bit of a science geek (robotics club, science camp, and built a computer once kind of geek) so I was incredibly excited to see so many kids having a good time learning about science. There was a lot of items for all ages. I really enjoyed the special LEGO exhibit. The 8-year-old loved building a salmon friendly damn and stream. And, my son loved the ball pit and soft padding of the infant playground.

Things I learned about a trip to OMSI:
1. Plan for an entire afternoon. We went for 4 hours and there were so many more things I wanted to see!
2. Don’t go on Spring Break if you don’t like crowds.
3. Don’t go when it rains if you don’t like crowds.

I can’t wait to go again!

BTW- this post was not sponsored in any way- I just happened to really enjoy my trip and would like to recommend it to parents in the PDX area!
