That’s what I get for bringing God into it. Clearly, God chose sides today. And he was not rooting for team Mommy. I should’ve known as I was making threats this morning on our way to school that all this punishment talk was going to come back and bite me in the ass. BIG TIME. So let me set the… Read More
Capisce?
Today was one of those Awesome-Not-Awesome days. I’m so bleery-eyed, sleep-deprived and cranky from this thing called “Motherhood Part Deux” that I can barely muster the energy to login and write this post. But….

Baby Signs
Noob Baby has been talking up a storm lately. Everyday I realize that she is a sponge. Sometimes I’ll ask her to identify something, an object which I haven’t explicitly taught her the name of, and she can manage to say the name of the object (not spot-on, but close enough for me to understand). She’s clearly been listening to… Read More
