MILP Roundup #253

Posted on 18:20 by Unknown
The Weekly Mothers In the Legal Profession Roundup is hosted on a rotating basis at the Butterflyfish, PT Law Mom, Attorney at Large, Attorney Work Product, Today Advocating Tomorrow, The Reluctant Grownup, and Magic Cookie blogs.

This week in MILPdom...

Attorney at Large reminds us that it's a privilege to represent clients. (Also, she has an exciting side project that may turn into a book.)

Speaking of clients, Frenchie of Mommy and the Sin City has a helpful hint for hers: Your lawyer knows more about the law that that friend of yours who also applied for a green card.

Dinei of Nonsense and Frippery is in the unusual (for her) situation of not having anything unusual to worry about. Fingers crossed that it lasts.

Cristy of Lacefields in Love was polite to a stranger who critiqued the effect of her dietary choices on her unborn child.

Butterflyfish's babies are starting to get along.

Suzie of In a Minute... made her first appearance in federal court.

Lag Liv went to a parent-teacher conference and a preschool celebration. I am purposely linking to this post and not her posts about bug infestations, which literally gave me bad dreams.

Kate of Today Advocating Tomorrow spent her one free week... being sick.

Congratulations to The Reluctant Grownup, who celebrated her law school graduation, and Izzie of Only Three Years. Izzie had to miss her ceremony, but she is celebrating the baby getting a little better at sleeping through the night.

-R- of And You Know What Else received a bill from her improperly staffed, regulation-violating daycare for failing to give proper notice before pulling her kids out. Time to pull out one of my favorite lawyer tricks... the threatening letter.

Cee of Wild North West Litigator had the universal mom bad day -- not enough sleep, baby crying, big kid clinging, and yet can't imagine leaving them and going back to work yet.

Mommy on the Floor has an opinionated 2-year old.

YouWillHaveABrightFuture looks back from the precipice of parenthood.

Decisions on Margaritas is getting some time away.

Mommy Madness is adjusting to changes of an unspecified sort, and running.

Finally, over here at Magic Cookie, I posted about the (remedial) fashion and beauty lessons I've learned over the past few years, and would love to hear what you've learned.

If you would like to have your blog added to the MILP blogroll for weekly review, drop the hostess(es) an email or leave a comment at their respective sites.
