Huge Weekend

I had one of the craziest weekends I’ve had in a long time. First off, the Professor went out of state with his grandparents overnight. This was the first time he and I had been apart for more than a few hours. While I was looking forward to having a weekend all [...]

Why don’t ya take a picture, it’ll last longer

Word to the wise: If you have just watched Speed Racer with your one year old, and the super catchy theme song during the credits inspires you to dance the baby dance with him (booty wiggles and arm flails), you may want to close the blinds. I didn’t realize that there was a [...]

No post today

I have NO idea what to post about today. Brain completely dead. Ummm, I went to the laundromat last night? Did you know that once you get a toddler, you and your partner will be fighting over who gets to go to the laundromat? Not like “No way, it’s your turn.” [...]

My Poltergeist

Okay, this video may be a little freaky for anyone who believes in ghosts. This is my kitchen where *strange* things have been going on:

Babies are weird

The Professor has started doing stranger and stranger things recently. Like watching TV upside down with his little booty up in the air, and hiding in the kitchen cabinets. But this next one I just can’t understand. Here’s his first video!

That little guy makes me laugh more than ever. Which [...]

I made a comic!

I was inspired to pick up the pencil again after all these months and make a comic for you guys. I just made the sketches. Alex did all the colors and text for me. I have such a useful husband. Click below to enlarge.

Nonsequiter Cuteness

As I mentioned yesterday, we have some old friends staying with us, along with their two daughters who are 2 and 4. This has definitely been an educational experience. While I don’t think the Professor will be having Princess dress up time 4 times a day like these two, I am getting to [...]
