Mr. Happy is just racing along the floor these days. Mr. Charm is happily eating some of his safe foods – foods which are NOT safe for Mr. Happy. He is also 2 and has no real awareness of crumbs. Mama is going NUTS. I’m going to change my name … Continue reading
Last weekend I went to one of my oldest friends baby shower. It was a lovely party for her and her baby, and I was so glad I got to share in the experience with her. She looks gorgeous, and her son is already so blessed! But, it was nerve-wracking … 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
“Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” I always thought that was Ben Franklin’s original thought, but when Googling to make sure I was remembering correctly I stumbled upon Mama Lisa, who corrected her own Ben Franklin assumption with the evidence showing this … 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

No, this wasn’t our first Christmas with kiddos in the literal sense, but it WAS our first Christmas with kiddos who could manage to unwrap a gift by themselves and be excited about the whole shebang. It was really, really cool. At 8:00 a.m. Mr. Happy woke up. With all … Continue reading
Yesterday morning, the Geek let me sleep in just a little bit. At 8:30 a.m., he walked from the living room, where all the boys were hanging out, to our bedroom, and said “Mama, get out of bed!”. I woke up and said “OK”, he turned and walked back towards … Continue reading
Yesterday morning, not five minutes after the Geek left the house to go to work, Mr. Happy crawled for the first time! Just a little one-two crawl, then he face-planted. But still! He crawled! He did the same thing a little later in the day, just before the Geek got … Continue reading
