• Happy Birthday, Poop!

    Yes, that’s the name i’ve been calling David since about high school. Trust me…it is a term of endearment in this case! I used to be “Snuggles” but i think that sort of fizzled out. I am on occasion called “Poop” also. Anyway, Poop was quite surprised at the small…

  • Mommypalooza’s 1st Anniversary

    Well, it’s been a full year that I’ve been posting on here keeping tabs on the goings-on of my life and the lives of my loved ones. It’s been fun and WOW! I can’t believe how time flies. Thanks for being the avid readers that you are and for being…

    Yesterday Season and I went to see The Devil Wears Prada and we had a ball! I realized that there was NO WAY i could’ve seen that movie with david….he would have probably wanted to walk out!! It was such a girly movie, you know, about fashion, sarcasm, and love.…

  • Yes, my kid really DOES have that much hair.

    If i had a nickel for every time someone smiled and exclaimed, “oh my goshhhhhh, he’s just got so much hair!” we wouldn’t need a college fund for Will. Seriously. I think that will all change very soon, possibly this weekend as david and i have decided to give him…

  • Egypt Smells, According to My Kid

    Nathan and i were working on a puzzle today. It’s one that has several famous landmarks on it. We were putting the pieces on and as we did each one i recited the name to him. When we got to The Sphynx, here’s how the convo went: Me: “Sphynx” (as…
