Okay, it may be late on a Friday, but I wouldn’t let you down. Most Fridays, anyway. It being February and past the holier-than-thou diet month of January, I think we can loosen up a little on the healthy stuff, plus I hear there is a big game this weekend. While I’m not a football…
Read MoreThe thing they don’t tell you in advance about parenting? Is how VERY HARD it can be some days not to laugh. Also, how VERY HARD to know what the right answer is. Yesterday Will and I were rolling along in the car after his morning at nursery school, and he asks, in what can…
Read MoreI had a great weekend visit with college friends for our annual Christmas (or thereabouts) gift swap and a surprise baby shower at the same time.

Read MoreWell, thank you all. You sure know how to make a girl feel good with your enthusiastic comments. I got a few really nice surprises in the mix, and was SO GLAD to hear from each and every one of you commenters. I am still wondering who the OTHER 850 or so people are, especially…
Read MoreSo, three and a half years into this parenting gig, I finally had the kind of poop experience that you hear stories about before you have kids. (Hi Megan, I do still remember your blueberry poop story!) So, soon-to-be first time parents? STEP AWAY from the computer screen and go rock serenely for a few…

Sorry for the repeat, but this photo is comedy GOLD, how could I not rerun it? A few times a year in the blogging world you see posts about Delurking Day—a day when bloggers request that their readers briefly leave the shelter of their anonymity and leave a comment on their blog. But since I…
