That’s A Lot O’ Lot!

Living in a townhouse, you don’t get much of a backyard. That hasn’t been a problem so far, since we haven’t really needed it. But now that the boys are older, we’re starting to think towards swing sets, slides, playing catch….fun stuff for the boys to do outside.
Our current backyard is approximately [...]

Madeleine McCann

A comment on one of my posts brought this story to my attention and asked that I post about it…just in case someone out there had seen her, and could help.
This little 4 year old girl, who was on vacation in Portugal with her family, was taken from her hotel room while she was sleeping [...]

Who Googles That?

I recently set up web tracking on my blog. Loads of fun…I can’t stop checking it. Love the world map with all the little dots…..fancy!
After reading about Sara’s (of Suburban Oblivion fame) latest post, I thought I would check to see if any search engines had offered up my blog in response to [...]

Where Did My Sick Days Go?

I think that’s the only thing I miss about work. My days off. Whether for vacation, or convalescing from a cold.
I wish I could take a sick day today.
My throat is on fire. My nose is running….it’s so sore from blowing it feels like I’ve been using sandpaper instead of tissue. [...]

No Peas Please

Mmmmmm….green peas. I love green peas. Cooked. Raw when they are freshed picked from the field. Alone. In casseroles. Whatever. I love them!
I don’t like them in Logan’s [...]

Runny Noses and Leaky Eyes

Logan and Zander have been fighting off the same cold for over a month…since Easter. It is just a lingering cough now….at least it is for Zander.
Last night Logan’s nose started getting stuffy again, and his cough got much worse. He started the night out in his crib, but inevitably ended up in [...]

He’s The Man

He’s the man whose hair was dyed bright orange when I met him in college.
He’s the man who made me really believe that bald is beautiful.
He’s the man who has always been there for me, through good times and bad.
He’s the man who makes me laugh so hard I almost pee my pants.
He’s the man [...]

Spinning

That’s what I’ve been doing for the past week and a half….spinning. Spinning and spinning and spinning. Isn’t Vertigo great?
The day before Zander’s birthday, I woke up to see the room spinning around me. Fun, but a little disconcerting. Once it stopped spinning, everything stayed still….until that night.
As soon as I went [...]

A Letter To The Birthday Boy

My darling Zander,
I can hardly believe that it was two years ago today that you came into our lives. I remember it like it was yesterday.
You were so tiny. After you were born, daddy and I just sat there holding you, gazing down at your beautiful face. We counted your 10 perfect [...]
