Humidity

It was pretty humid out today.  Not the worst its been in a while, but still fairly damp.  Sam’s hair is super curly tonight.  Vic, she might be calling you for some advice in a few years.

Baby Teeth

Jessie’s working on filling in the big gap on top between her fangs. She’s been more than just a little cranky the last couple of nights.  I’m not sure how Sam is doing on her teeth as she seems to think that is a private thing and I should keep my fingers out of her mouth.  [...]

The Phone Company’s Crazy

So, we cancelled our phone the other week.  Never used it that much, had cell phones, so we got rid of it.  A week or so ago I got a letter from them saying, “Pay $X.xx right now or we’re sending a collection agency after you.”  So, politely I asked Matt if he’d paid the [...]

Rough Morning

This morning was just ugly.  Sam has been getting up at night for bottles. Still. Yet. She’ll give us maybe one night a week where she sleeps all night and we get our hopes up that it’ll happen again, and then….nope. It’s not like she’s getting up for the heck of it. She takes a [...]

A Tooth at Last!!

Yippee!!! Sam finally got a tooth!  Found it tonight when I was feeding her.  On the bottom, in the front. I was starting to think she’d be gumming down food when she reached high school, as long as it was taking her to get a tooth.

Bare Naked Ladies

If I had a million dollars….
….I’d buy these girls some air conditioning.
(Hey, come on, what were you thinking I meant in the title? This is hardly kiddie porn!)

The Babies’ First Kegger

Awesome, dude.
The house next door has sported a “Happy Birthday, Thad” banner for a couple of days. Not the print-it-off-the-computer-yourself kind, the I-paid-for-this-at-a-sign-shop kind. With some logos on it.
Someone was outside tonight when I walked home, so being a smartass, I asked if he was Thad. Indeed, he was. I wished him happy birthday. He [...]

What day is it?

All week – or since sometime last week – I’ve been walking around thinking it was the wrong day.  Tuesday felt like Thursday, today feels like Monday, Monday felt like Friday. I feel so completely out of it, just wandering about in a fog.
The kids are teething. Sam hasn’t popped any teeth through yet, but it’ll [...]

My Life as a Hankie

There’s nothing like getting to a meeting of about 30 people and discovering that on the way to daycare, one of the kids had used your shirt as a kleenex.  Stayed up late last night to iron the bright red cotton and spandex mix shirt (maternity shirt nonetheless because nothing else fits) so I’d look decent [...]

June update

Jessie’s doing better. She went to daycare this afternoon.  We kept her home in the morning because we weren’t sure if she was all that much better or not. She takes a while to wake up in the morning and it was hard to tell if her groggy behavior was because she was sick, or [...]

Another trip to the emergency room

Jessie was barking a bit like a seal this morning, so Matt took Sam to daycare and then we took Jessie off to the ER.  Poor little kid, she looks so pathetic and sounds pretty crappy, too. The last time we were there for the same thing, they kept us there all day, so we [...]
