Who are WE?
about me: {kat22stl}
Claim to Fame:
My husband and I accidentally had our baby unassisted in our bathroom. Oops!
You can read the drama here.
I even got Karl to write his ‘midwifery’ version here.
And then I made him take my photo. (best. post. ever.)
AND THEN. Oops! We did it again. (Different bathroom.)
(We only have two bathrooms so I guess we're done having kids.)

I love:
The Internet and all things associated with it.
Cardinals baseball.
Eating in restaurants.
Reading books.
(Aaaaand sentence fragments.)
I adore technology, design, and connecting.
I like putting words on paper (er - typing words on this blog?).

(I also use PARENTHESIS.)
(A lot.)
I dig photography though my own skills are sub-par.
My team:
Husband (1), Karl, lover of all things geeky. A developer for an internet startup.
Children (2), Nate, age 3, our blonde ball of energy. A hater of sleep and lover of playgrounds. And NK, the baby, lover of boob juice and sleep.
Dogs (2), Arlo and Roxy.
Past:
I grew up in the great city of St. Louis, a child to two liberal, working Irish Catholic parents who never gave me a curfew and let me read Stephen King novels at age 12. I went to a private, all girls high school and transitioned to a small, private college in Oklahoma. When Karl and I met, I was the president of my sorority and he of his fraternity. (Which entertains me to NO END because we are of the more laid back variety and always have been. ) Honestly, it feels like a long, drunken lifetime ago. We moved to Little Rock after college to begin Our Story.
Career:
Currently I work part time for a PR/Web and Event Management firm. The rest of my days are spent with my babies. In my pre-kid days I worked in the ad design department of a local niche publishing company. Prior to that I was an event planner and web/PR guru for a non-profit association. My husband and I also own a web design business - 84boxes - but he does all the work.
Parenting Style: WHATEVER WORKS. Motto: Never Say Never. I support home births and breastfeeding but do not judge those who don’t align with my style.
Additional claim to fame: My 2005 wedding was featured on The Knot website and a regional print edition. HA! The article references things like “as the sun set over the wine garden” which I don’t remember happening but must have since it’s IN PRINT AND ON THE INTERNET.
Future: More writing, more balancing, more interneting - same as most of us out here in the world wide web.
Here are the places you can find me on the internet (I warned you. I love the internet. There are a lot.)
