Giggles All Around

Jonah can now full on giggle.  Although, like smiles, giggles are hard to capture on film.

 

D-Day

I downloaded Lora Jensen’s sleep training book online.  I know, most will say it’s a waste of money.  But, as a first time mom, I just really needed someone to tell me what to do.  I confused myself too much if I actually thought about it.  So, the objective approach was to let someone else [...]

The Incredible but Hardly Edible

You may remember that last year Beulah treed a German in our quince tree.  Now, you may have thought that good laughs was all that tree was good for.  I certainly thought this.  But, this year I decided to get it in gear and DO SOMETHING with all those quince.
Every year it sorta stares me [...]

Housewife

He is ten weeks old today.  TEN.  He is blabbering a ton; most talkative kid ever.  And he is starting to smile at EVERYTHING!  He loves new people and especially kids.  When cousin Thomas tries to kill him by dumping him out of his bouncy seat, or when he rips the binky out of his [...]

Mommy Craft Day

Today Jonah and I took on a special crafty project and learned a very valuable lesson.  Isn’t that what mothers do with their babies?  You see, as I mentioned previously, we had been growing some pumpkins in the parking strip.  I anticipated this day, and yet was still shocked and horrified to find our pumpkins had [...]

It’s a Jungle in Here

Tuesday nights are Bell’s Organic CSA pickup.  It’s across the street from my house and despite the convenience for me, I buy from East Farms CSA, whose dropoff point is NOT across the street from my house.  Mainly it’s because Bell’s is more expensive.  So, they’ve had this dropoff for a few years, so we are quite [...]

The Final Countdown

This has better be the last preg picture I post.  Super Bone is apparently like his mother, and he values and respects rules.  If he were more like his dad, he’d come whenever he felt like it, but he obviously wrote the 17th down on his calendar and by god, will come on that date.  [...]

The Beginning… and the End

HARVEST TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I gathered three tomatoes today.  I threw away three.  The bad ones had rotted bottoms.  I think that is from either a) a lack of something in the soil or b) water problems.  I can’t remember the details of A but I read it somewhere recently…….. Anyway, I think this may be it for [...]

My Last Request

Since a few girls read my blog, I thought I’d throw this out there – I have been searching for, and having a hell of a time finding – a robe!  Now, of course not just any robe…
It has to be a warm weather robe.  Something like t-shirt material, even satin.  I would prefer it [...]

Things are Getting Full, Including My Brain

I had some really strange dreams last night.  After giving birth in what was similar to Woodstock, everyone was talking about what I should name the baby.  Despite having decided on a name, Dusty acted like it was still in the air.  Wanna know what he wanted to name the kid?  Super Bone Riley.  Lol.  [...]
