I think I just heard it outside. The girls are napping, which I say with happiness, since they spent almost a month not really napping. A well rested child is a reasonable child. No nap = misery for all. I guess I could say the same for everyone. But grown ups know they are tired [...]

Headache B-Gone

Goodbye, cruel headache. You and I have battled for the past three days. You pounding my brain, you stabbing my skull. Me taking pills, drinking tea, complaining. But I won, you jerk. You big, nauseating pain in my head. Goodybe, I hate you and hope to never again encounter you (but know I will).

My husband said this last night whilst scrubbing the high chair trays. He was concerned that there was chicken juice of some sort in the kitchen sink left over from the dinner I made. So he scrubbed the trays twice, just to be safe. This is one of the many reasons I am glad we [...]
Oh My Aching Head

It’s tedious to have to be me all the time. I can’t get away from myself. The only thoughts I manage to come up with are my thoughts. Same old crap, day after day. Even looking at what I just wrote is boring. I would just like to wake up one day with something fresh [...]
Sleep Deprivation

Now both of them are sick. Mimi’s snot streams are waning and hopefully Beenie will soon follow suit. Add that to the fact that they are both teething, and you got a tired mama. For some reason (maybe the fact that she can’t breathe without choking on her own goo) Beenie just cannot wind down [...]

Why is my Throat Sore?

Why do I have a small and annoying cough? You’d think that suffering through the scourge of February 2008, I’d be immune to any germ that even looked my way. But no. I’m sick again. Not hideously so, not yet. Mimi was actually the first to be hit with this current round of whatever it [...]

The “Food First, Then Nap” Epiphany
Posted in broken eggs, parenting, photographs, potato chip, raising twins on March 21, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Today I tried something different. Lunch BEFORE naptime. I know, I know. It sounds crazy. But I had to try something since naptime has been starting and finishing later and later each day, and the girls were going for longer amounts of time without food. I am now wondering if Beenie’s nap hesitation was because [...]

My brother said he read my blog recently and thought it was sad and something else, which I can now not remember. Is it really sad? I’m not so saddened by it. In fact, I think it has lots of hope. Not every day is wonderful, but really, how many people have every day be [...]
