Isn’t this the cutest picture ever? Wondering where Deedsey is? She was in her gymnastics class. Moments before hand she tried to stuff a bagel down the front of her leotard. I took this picture after confiscating her “in class snack”.
My darling baby is going through a little reflux issue. I have to remind myself that the crying, which can get under my skin, is nothing compared to the aches she is feeling. Charlotte also has this “thing” where she can go a few days without going potty. This is pretty normal for babies who [...]
Yeah, this has to do with Aiden again. Yesterday I took them to a park after school because our house was trashed from my projects. I seem to be in the middle of a crap purge. Meaning I am getting rid of all our useless crap. My goal is to find a peaceful existence with [...]
My daughter has taken to mooning people. I am not going to point fingers as to who taught her this but there is a giant and I mean GIANT neon sign above my husbands head. The sign has arrows, bright arrows point down to him. My sister and I have never been fans of showing [...]

My dad is over bear after finding this replacement dog.
I am. I love animals. More than most people. If I don’t have room for them, then I give them to other people. Some women buy shoes. I adopt pets. Alright, I do both. They both keep your feet warm and can make you look fabulous walking down the street. Twelve years ago I was [...]
I was really hoping for something more substantial in regards to tropical storm Hanna today. Here is what we got instead: three muddy dogs, two muddy children, a muddy staircase, a sink full of dirty dishes and remnants of cookies I actually made from scratch. On a more positive note I found the lotion I [...]
“Mommy I got in trouble in school today”
“Did you go to timeout”?
“Yes”.
“What did you do”?
“I don’t know”.
No, of course not. As a former teacher I can’t count the number of times I wrongly put kids in time out. We continued this conversation when Keith got home.
” Aiden why did you go to time out”?
“I don’t [...]
