I’ve always loved him, but I’m really starting to like him.
Okay folks. I am so excited to announce that I think we’ve come to the other side! The side where having a baby is more fun than work (okay, that might not be entirely true, but at least the work is getting to be a little more fun) and there are more rewards [...]
“Wizzlers, Jejush, Cocadots and Pupcakes”
Just a few very cute and funny 4 year old mispronunciations (for Twizzlers, Jesus, Polkadots and Cupcakes) that we won’t be hearing around here on a daily basis anymore. We went to St. Louis last week to give Hailey, our niece who has been living with us since January, her 4th birthday party and to [...]
All in the name of sleep…
The things you will do as a parent for just a few brief moments of peace (even though ”peace” may come with the hum of an appliance in the background) and some SLEEP are so ridiculous and comical all at the same time, as proven by my last post. During our recent trip to visit Scott’s family I [...]
Sleep Through the Static
An appropriate title for the newest addition to my CD collection (Jack Johnson’s latest). I picked it up a couple months ago when my sister and I made the road trip to house hunt. But, instead of spending the drive jamming out to our new tunes, we spent most of the trip listening to static [...]
I guess I’m going to have to find a new Blockbuster
I keep meaning to blog this…. A few weeks ago I made my first trip to the local Blockbuster to return some DVDs we got from our online account and to get some new in-store DVDs. According to our online agreement, we are entitled to 2 (or maybe 4?) in -store DVD rentals for free [...]
The good crap and the bad crap
Babies need lots of crap. That’s really a large reason why we had to get a bigger place. I mean, I guess you could go all minimalist and not get the bouncer AND the swing AND the playmat, but I challenge you to find something to keep that kid occupied while you get [...]
Prisoner in my own home
OMG! I’m never going to be able to leave this house! I am sick and tired of being stuck here, but Kendall merely needs to brush against the fabric of the infant car seat to be set off into a complete wail. He HATES it. Granted, he has spent an extreme amount of time in [...]
Picture this
Me, hovering over Kendall, squeezing my already tapped out boobs to get a couple drops of breast milk to drip in his eyes while Scott holds his chubby cheeks still and Kendall looks up, mouth wide open, completely bewildered as to why I’m aiming so high. Inevitably, I always miss the first couple of tries [...]
Yeah, I’m pretty sure.
Just got back from Home Depot, which I have visited twice a day nearly every day since we got here, and had the strangest conversation with a lady at customer service.
Me- “I’d like to return this dimmer switch.”
Her – “Awww, what a cute baby! How many months?”
Me- “Thanks! He’s two months old.”
Her- “What?! No way. [...]
HOME!!
Wow. What’s that saying? Something about how life isn’t the destination, it’s the journey, I think. Well, if that’s the case, my life can be summed up as one crazy ass ride these last few months. Tonight is the first time in weeks that I’ve been able to sit down at [...]
