• Of all meats, it was the bacon.

    This morning while still in bed I overheard David ask Nathan what he wanted for breakfast. N8 replied with his usual “egg and cheese” and then David suggested “how ’bout some bacon?” Nathan then asked what bacon was (even though he’s seen it a hundred times I am sure) and…

  • Thanksgiving recap….finally!

    Thanksgiving was of course a blast with my familia in town! Here are some pics mostly just for the sake of my journaling but for you too if you’re interested! Sitting on our tryptophan-filled butts playing Family Feud DVD and Balderdash on Thanksgiving Day. David still makes me laugh just…

  • I could tell Nathan got that weird feeling today.

    Have you ever seen someone, say a teacher, out of the usual environment you are used to seeing them? Doesn’t that always feel weird? Well today it happened to Nathan. We waltzed into Price Chopper and while I was getting Will put into the cart we see N8’s preschool teacher,…

  • Caught red-handed.

    Lil’ homeboy made his way from the living area into the entryway to go for the nightlight and plug nearby. I am gonna have to keep my eye on this one.
