On the left side of the sanity bell curve
…especially when you’re doing them on your kid. Isn’t that what parenting is all about? Experimenting on your children…just to see what happens… Hold your little emailing fingers. I’m not doing anything bad. It’s not like I’m grafting an ear onto her back or anything. [that would just be freaky] For the past three days,… Continue reading Experiments Are Fun…
have a funny little story for you. [Alana, quit reading since you said you didn’t want to hear it] One day last week while I was working on the computer, I heard a ruckus behind me. When I swiveled my chair around to see what the commotion was about, I saw Sophie on her back;… Continue reading For Once It Wasn’t the Cat
Does this picture offend you? I really can’t decide, so I want you guys to decide for me. [ok…not really] Whether you formula feed or breastfeed, you can’t deny the superiority of breastmilk to formula. I’m not passing judgment. I’m not pointing fingers. I’m just stating a fact. From an advertising standpoint, this ad works…unless… Continue reading Can I Get an Inhaler with that Dandelion?
I like lists. They’re easy to scan, they get right to the heart of whatever you’re writing about and they look nice. This is my truncated list of things that I know; my list of things that I don’t know would take too long to write. I know that eating a big ole bucket of… Continue reading This Much I Know
Man, Friday was one of those days. I was having business issues that required emails back and forth and the issue still isn’t resolved. In the middle of the emails, my cable went out…Tucker went ahead and got it disconnected. [Refer here] Add to all of that the fact that I had gotten no sleep… Continue reading Pan’s Labyrinth and KFC
I turned off the baby monitor this morning. When? Yeah, not so sure about that little detail. I know that I turned it off after midnight since that’s when I broke Harry’s spell on me. I woke up this morning at 7:30 and Cara was pissed! Her door was closed and I could still hear… Continue reading Worst Mom Ever!
I’m really going to piss a lot of you off by admitting this, but I agree with this. Now, hold on. Before you start throwing stones, give me a chance. “If women spent more time doing stuff, as opposed to staring in the mirror, they could accomplish great things. Unfortunately, women no longer want to… Continue reading Ducking Rocks
Do you recognize these three? They’ve invaded my TV this morning and they refuse to leave. Damn baby animals and their horrible singing. Am I the only one who finds it odd that the duck’s name is Ming-Ming…which sounds Asian…and Asians eat duck. OK…technically, I guess anyone can eat duck, but I had Fragrant Crispy… Continue reading Ming-Ming Should Die and Other Random Things
I quit my birthcontrol yesterday. NO, I am NOT trying to get pregnant again. Not yet anyway. I guess a bit of back story is in order. I had Cara in November of 2006. [That sounds like so long ago!] The “baby weight” came off almost immediately and after a couple of months, the ole… Continue reading No More Pills
Well, last night was Tucker’s first night at the second job; things went much better than I had expected. Tucker had to be at the job by 6pm, so when he left, Cara and I were having dinner. The poor kid’s eyes were rimmed in red and I could tell that she needed to have… Continue reading Bath Time Fun
Two things have become very apparent to me today. #1 My child thinks that baby gates are a joke. #2 My child thinks that NO! is a joke. Oh, the joys of having a toddler. Wait. Did I just write “toddler”?! Aren’t kids supposed to be like 14 months or something before they’re considered toddlers?… Continue reading Baby Gate AKA Baby Joke
*Note – A lot of these links are broken because this is an old post. I’ll update them real soon. Promise.* There have been all kinds of “baby essential” lists popping up in blogland like here and here. Reading their lists got me to thinking about my own list and what I wish someone had… Continue reading Big List of Baby Junk
