You aren’t seeing things. I’m on vacation. Not in a relaxing place, not in a clean place, not in a cheap place, just in a DIFFERENT place than where I am every other day. I am away from my dear, sweet and truly beloved family from Friday to Sunday, visiting with old pals in the [...]

Already it Starts

Two things.
1.) Beenie is going through a real rotten streak, and her little sister Mimi watches, learns and indulges in this horror as well. They both refuse to sit at the kitchen table. They were sitting in proper high-chairs, locked into safety until two weeks ago, when Beenie decided it was ridiculous to sit down [...]

You seasoned parents already know this, but I’m just now getting tuned into the fact that my toddler terrors are suddenly nice and well-behaved when outsiders are in the mix. This morning, for instance, was shaping up to be yet another day of Beenie refusing to sit in her high chair, only standing, and Mimi [...]

Good afternoon, blog. Sorry I’ve been neglecting you. When we first started seeing each other, I felt like we had a deep connection, you know? If I recall correctly, it was back in February of this year. The girls and I were hacking up our proverbial lungs — we all had a nasty little scourge [...]

Tonight I was absolved of bad parenting techniques by Alix. She’s the friend I’ve known more than half my life who likes her eggs soft and her (rye) toast and bacon well-done. Alix informed me that Suri, TomKat’s two and a half year old is still on the ba-ba and she’s is doing JUST FINE. [...]
Nice Neighbors

The nicest lady lives next to us. Her name is Sue and she’s a psychotherapist dealing with people who have food issues. At least I think that’s what it is. Anyway, she’s super cool and the girls ADORE her. Beenie is always looking outside to see if she’s there. When we are out in our [...]
