Poor Adam. By Wednesday afternoon he had a blazing fever and was in bed with a blinding headache. His ‘Grad’ was the following morning. After a night of throwing up and mommy laying with him to supply water and cold compresses…he decided he could make it the at least the ceremony. You can see his […]

Conversations with my Son…
This morning… Adam: ‘ Mom, girls look better than boys.” Me: ‘how so?” A: ” Well girls just go straight down, but boys have sticking out bumpy bits.” “Girls look better.” Yesterday in bath.. A: “MOM! I can make them go up and down” A clenches and unclenches watching tiny scrote go up and down. […]
My Girl is Four!
Four years ago today, by this time, I was probably sitting in my hospital room chatting on the phone while Caity snoozled in her little bassinet. Her birth was remarkable in how FAST it was and how great I felt afterwards…compared to the WEEKS of recovery from Adam. She came out screaming and angry. She […]
Major Photo Opp will Ensue
Today we celebrate Caity’s birthday. She doesn’t know, but we are taking her for a pony ride at a nearby stable with her little buddy. Afterward cake and the usual festivities….. She is already very excited. I need to get myself sorted and finish errand running. Why does ToysRus alway only have one or two […]
Hump Day
So it has been 7 days since Crunchy Husband started a job that takes him OUT OF THE HOUSE and INTO AN ACTUAL OFFICE. He is gone from 8 in the morning to around 6:30 or 7 at night. He has not had such a job since before Adam was born. It feels really weird. […]
Big Brother Doesn’t Give a Crap
This is despicable. It is also a good reason for people who have free Blogger/Blogspot sites to leave and find another more ‘ethical’ free set up…like WordPress.com for example. As most know..GOOGLE owns Blogger. I am assuming because of their size, they just don’t really give a crap…. What am I blathering on about? My […]
Morning Dog Shot..
Being that yesterday’s weather was spectacular, we wanted to get outside for a bit. We had hid in the mall, while CH did some Father’s Day shopping….when we got home the dog was a tad frantic. So we hit the local off leash area, which weirdly is RIGHT beside my kids school. Convenient, yes, but […]
Fathers…
So the kids had their homemade gifts for their daddy today….the same, no doubt, as many kids did today. So daddy is happy with the love and memories created by such gifts from the heart. And he truly deserves it. He is a fantastic dad. He gives his all to his kids….and they love him […]
Dodging Bullets Awkwardly
Yesterday…on film….a baby beluga was born at the Vancouver Aquarium. The children were riveted. Then it came…. Adam: “Mom, how did YOU get a baby in you?” (FUCK) (Geez kid, haven’t you walked in enough on us to figure it out!?) (Fuck) (You are only 6 – Do I really have to deal with this?) […]
