It kind of dawned on me today that Saturday is Valentine’s Day. Duh. Casey and I have talked about going out on a date, and yet it never really hit me until just now that it’s Valentine’s Day. I have nary a card or a gift. I feel like life has […]
Kenny wanted to pose with Dudley for a picture, and we caught Dudley mid-yawn… Yikes!
Over the weekend I had to make a dessert for a dinner party we were attending, and decided that I needed to use the fabulous min-bundt pans that we got as a wedding gift so long ago. The pans in question were packed somewhere in the twenty-some-odd boxes that we have still not unpacked […]
Back in August I joined Facebook at the suggestion of a high school friend, but never really did anything other than fill in a skeleton profile and then randomly accept friend requests here and there.

Ok, I realize that Dudley is not biologically a son, and yes, I know that for all of his quirks, he is far from Human. But really, he is more work than Cooper and Kenny put together some days, so I have come to accept that a big piece of my daily pie is […]

Tired, still. Stop. Add an ear infection to Cooper’s roster; Giant Pharmacy running promotion for free antibiotics for the month of January; Pharmacist joked today that our family is making them broke; Ha. Ha ha ha, can I punch you even if you’re wearing a lab coat? Stop. Kenny finally sick, too. […]
I am turning into a zombie. Between holding Cooper much of the day and rocking him to sleep for naps (I can’t bear to make him cry when it drives him into a coughing fit!), I have also been sleeping in the room with him in Kenny’s bed so that I can listen to […]
Yes, it’s snowing out, but our house-bound state started before a single flake hit the ground. Cooper woke up a little punky on Sunday and started coughing… again. The kid had a cough for 10 weeks straight, but the past week he had been completely well, so when the cough started again, I did […]
