Happy Birthday Little One
Shenipsit Lake Longing | March 11th 2008 by pepper
I know you hate it when I call you by all those “silly” nicknames (Pumpkin Lumpkin, Cutie-pa-tootie, Baby Boy, Honey Bunny - just to name a few). I love you sooo much Cyrus and I am sooo happy and proud of you in soo many ways. Today read more
Overheard….lunchtime….
Them and Us | January 4th 2008 by Jess
“GABE!!” “What?” “YOU’VE GOT TO EAT YOUR LUNCH OR YOU’LL SQUISH BACK INTO A LITTLE BABY!” “I don’ want to ‘quish back to a baby!” “THEN EAT YOUR LUNCH! OR YOU’LL SQ read more
Give Thanks
Shenipsit Lake Longing | November 20th 2007 by pepper
In just a few days, we will be celebrating the American holiday of Thanksgiving. Most of us will gather the family together and enjoy the company of one another, a turkey and a pie or two. It’s also the official kickoff of Christmas shopping. read more
Cockachon Gone Wild
Shenipsit Lake Longing | November 6th 2007 by pepper
Chai, my puppy is 6 months and 7 days old today, and she has been acting very strangely lately. She’s stealing my clothes and my SHOES, jumping at my house guests, wrestling with my kids cat, eating the books in my library, barking for attenti read more
God and Spiderman
Them and Us | October 2nd 2007 by Jess
So God and Spiderman aren’t related in any way, but the title sounded catchy, and I’m sure the spam bots will have a field day with that one. My stats will go through the roof by weirdos who liken God to Spiderman. And the other way a read more
Fream
Them and Us | September 18th 2007 by Jess
“Would you like to tate my eye-fream?” “Sure, Gabe. Your ice cream tastes really good.” “Yeah. It’s freamy.” “Oh really?” “Oh, yeah. It looks freamy too. Good fream.” I wish it read more
Because I have nothing better to do than post lots of photos
Them and Us | September 14th 2007 by Jess
Last weekend, we braved the extreme heat, and went to Frying Pan Farm Park with the kids. Basically, a farm. That they call a park because they put out a few old, not-working tractors that the kids can sit on. Behold, a farm-park. Not a park at read more
Preschool.
Them and Us | September 13th 2007 by Jess
This week was the beginning of a new phase in the lives of our little family. Cassidy started preschool. Monday, to be exact. We got her little self all ready, with her princess backpack (way too much pink, if you ask me, but for Cass thereR read more
Are my plothes in my ploset?
Them and Us | September 4th 2007 by Jess
Gabe has two consonants: B and P. Everything starts with those two letters. “Mommy, ban you plose da door?” If you’re with him, he’s understandable. Unfortunately, for those familial connections out of town, well. Um. read more
Ballet, a recital, and needing mom.
Them and Us | August 25th 2007 by Jess
Next week is Cassidy’s ballet recital. How did my kid get old enough to have a recital? She was born yesterday. Today she was Goldilocks, in ballet class, and when she was done she called me and told me all about how she got to dance with read more
It Is FINISHED
Them and Us | August 9th 2007 by Jess
The move, I mean. Not my personal creation of the world, or anything. Just a small thing called familial relocation, which is akin to insanity in a bottle, or driving on the wrong side of the highway wearing sunglasses at night. But, we’r read more
Dinosaur, sminosaur
Them and Us | July 5th 2007 by Jess
The kids are into dinosaurs. Really into them. They'll sit for hours, playing with their little dinosaur figurines. T-rex eating the smaller dinosaurs, the brontosaurus eating the t-rex. They've become bloodthirsty little boogers. Of course read more
Boy? Girl?
Them and Us | June 25th 2007 by Jess
Gabe can't say “she”. I'm pretty sure he understands the difference between a girl and a boy, he just cannot seem to state the difference. Which leads to much confusion at times. He may run screaming into the kitchen (because he pre read more
manipulation 101
Them and Us | June 19th 2007 by Jess
“I love you, Gabe” 30 seconds later…… “You look really nice today, Gabe.” 30 seconds…… “Hey Gabe, I really like your shirt.” 30 seconds……. “Wow Gabe, you sure are a good ea read more
Booberry Tiss
Them and Us | June 8th 2007 by Jess
Cassidy has this kiss. I have no idea where she came up with it, but it's hers, and she calls it a “strawberry kiss”. Basically, she kisses on each cheek, then smacks one on the lips. Before bed, upon waking, whenever someone leaves: read more
A cup, a mouth, and a whole lot of cleaning
Them and Us | May 17th 2007 by Jess
The kids are at an age where I cannot leave them alone. Ever. It was easier 6 months ago, surprisingly, to keep them out of trouble. Now trouble seems to find them, without fail. We have days when I chase them constantly: taking the cat's tail read more
Cassidy-isms: the mouth of 3.5
Them and Us | May 11th 2007 by Jess
“This is the best pudding I never had, except that I am having it right now!” “Mom, your hair is so beautiful! Except sometimes when it's not!” “Gabe, sing the song. The one with sings in it.” “Mommy, I t read more
What they really think of mommy
Them and Us | May 1st 2007 by Jess
Overheard, today: “Don't worry, Gabe. Mommy likes cleaning up our stuff.” “That guy's grumpy cuz he doesn't have a mommy” (in reference to a movie bad-guy) “It's ok, Gabe. Mommy will take care of it. She always do read more
