The Baby Ceiling

I don't generally make a habit of responding to articles about how a mother chooses to parent her children, mostly because it's none of my business. But last night I read an article by Mia Freedman regarding Marissa Mayer's decision to return to work two weeks after having her baby and I felt compelled to say something (you can read the full article here). 


I wasn't offended or even bothered by the idea that Ms Mayer, CEO of Yahoo, believed that she would be able to simply pop out a child and then carry on with her career as if nothing happened, honestly how can you expect anyone to fathom the enormity of those early months before they have lived it?  I admit, I did scoff a little at the concept though, purely for the fact that even with a straight forward delivery, your body will have some considerable adjustments to make in that first two weeks. 

Let's Catch Up

It's been so long (over 2 months in fact) since my last post, I honestly don't know where to start. While I shared the most important news with you yesterday, there has been plenty of other things happening or waiting to happen at Casa de Bond that are worthy of a mention. For simplicity and attention span's sake, photo bullet points are probably best for this exercise so here is a brief list of what's you may have missed while I have been AWOL:

What's REALLY Kept Me From Blogging

I hope you can forgive my absence...

YES! There is a Baby Bond on the way!!! 


Due 17th December 2012.


Now that I am over the morning (24 hour) sickness and we have told all the appropriate IRL people, prepare to be bombarded with all manner of pregnancy and baby talk.


Cause, you know, I'm the only person to ever experience pregnancy and it's therefore my duty to bore you to tears with every detail impart my wisdom on you ;)


Making my grand return just in time to link up with Jess at Diary of a SAHM for #iBOT.
