I’m afraid I’ve been quiet the crap poster just lately. I keep meaning to write, but it seems like everything has been conspiring to whip my ass:
C. had his 2nd month appointment, complete with 4 (count ‘em, 4) immunizations!! I don’t remember MM having 4 in one go, and it was two on […]
I’m sorry I’ve been AWOL for a bit - things have just been (predictably) crazy around here and computer time is at a premium. So, another bullet points update:
We registered MM for preschool in the Fall!! It’s only two mornings a week, but she’s so starved for human contact and play outside the confines of […]
Seriously, does it even qualify as a blog post if you just use bullet points?? Or could this be the new wave of Mommyblogging? You know, for when all you have to work with is two functioning brain cells?
So, we just got an infusion of new video content, since Mommy has officially seen Totoro, Toy […]
C. wound up catching The Cold; so far he’s okay. A little congested, but nothing that I can get at with the suction bulb. But that also means he’s not leaking from every orifice. He’s crabby, though. Temperature’s holding it’s own right now. Otherwise, he’s getting fatter by the day and is generally doing his […]
My anniversary gift from M. (for whom I got…nothing. He’s remarkably hard to buy for and never says what he wants, dammit) was an Itzbeen - a wonderfully versatile timer for mothers who lost 50%+ of their brain cells during the birth of their child. It lets you know how long “itzbeen” since the baby […]
To, um, me and M. I’m into the self-congratulation, apparently.
We celebrated our third wedding anniversary with lunch at Todai, the cheesy Asian buffet chain. M. had a craving for sushi (but didn’t want to pay $4/piece to have it, and the place we were planning to go didn’t do lunch on Sundays), so we went […]
We found out that our tax return - in which 2.0 and his timely arrival have been key players - works out to a substantially higher refund than we originally thought. This means that we should be able to finance our trip to see M.’s family and have some to spare - yay!
So, on the […]
banging my head against the wall.
It’s been quite a weekend at Casa del M. Among the highlights:
On Friday night - beginning of a three-day weekend for M. - I managed to get into an argument with him concerning my inability to do anything of substance on the phone. Let’s just say that I have an […]
The good news: C. weighed in at 9.02 lbs yesterday, so we officially don’t have to go and get him weighed anymore. For those of you keeping track, this is 13 oz. over his weight last week (8 lbs. 5 oz.). Told you all he does is eat.
The bad news: The “diaper rash” […]
I’m finding that I’m experiencing most days like some kind of psychotic rollercoaster ride; I vacillate between feeling like I can do anything and that things are well under my control, and feeling like I’m trapped in some kind of unrelenting hell and doing everything possible wrong, wrong, wrong.
I suppose hormones could be partly to […]
