We started a new bedtime routine for the adults in the Cradle Rocking Casa last week, and it turned out…interesting. I thought I’d share how it worked out. __________ The first night was Thursday, the 10th. As promised, I went to bed with the kids. And I laid in bed, … Continue reading
Monday night, the Geek woke up in the middle of the night and went to eat some cereal. Somehow, a bite of cereal managed to crack one of his teeth! He said it hurt like crazy, and was not feeling very well Tuesday. The dentist said the tooth is not … Continue reading
I have something SO awesome to share with you, I can hardly stand it! I can take NO credit whatsoever for this delicious concoction. Most of my recipes are my own creations, or such a major overhaul of someone else’s idea that I can still claim it as my own. … Continue reading
This Fructose Malabsorption road is SO frustrating, I had a post all ready to go talking about how we’ve been “two steps forward, two steps back” non-stop since we learned Mr. Charm’s diagnosis. But then…Sunday’s weigh-in came. He weighed 29.2 pounds!!! To give you an idea of how monumental this … Continue reading

Last year, when Mr. Charm turned 2, we noticed that he didn’t seem to talk as much as other kids his age. Thanks to all the crazy medical stuff that went on last summer, I couldn’t get in for his 2 year checkup until September – a full 2.5 months … Continue reading
I love my children. Ahem. More specifically… I *LOVE* my children with every fiber of my being. But sometimes, the unrelenting…relentlessness of being responsible for them 24/7/365 is just flat-out exhausting. Because I don’t ever – EVER – get a break.** Child care is hard enough to find without … Continue reading
Oh, blood. I never thought Motherhood would bring so much blood into my life. Yesterday Mr. Charm’s first poopy diaper of the day had visible blood in it. As I’ve stated before, that has only ever happened for him if he consumes dairy. So I called the Geek at work … Continue reading
