Circadian Crafts and the Tale of the Talkative Toddler

Ahoy thar! Sorry I’ve been out of pocket recently, we were having internet troubles that FINALLY got fixed today. I promise to get caught up on everyone’s blogs here soon.
So first things first, I have to show you this quilt Becky from Hamblog made:

Adventures in Packing

The little dude is really enjoying all the activity going on around here. All these boxes and furniture in weird places, what kid wouldn’t like it? I mean, do you remember when happiness was a large, empty cardboard box?

Peek a boo!

Forgive the mess in all these pictures. I’m washing linens and sorting [...]

April Challenge

I had been hearing about a neat idea around the internets for a few days now and once Dot Dabbled got involved, I knew I had to try it. Hit the link for all the information. Long story short, it’s called “Make Something Cool Every Day for April.” It can be anything! [...]

Hope your Monday is going well!

Gamer Drink, the 1UP!

So I’ve decided that I need to up the ante on my Friday posts. I used to have Cookie Friday, but now that the Professor is showing SEVERE signs of the terrible twos, Momma needs a drink. He is trying his best to make sure he remains an only child.

Christmas Pictures

Are you ready for some baby cuteness?? I think a lot of you could use it since this is the first Monday after the holiday break for a bunch of you.
Hmmm. I’m playing with Wordpress’s image code thingy. Not sure if I like this. ANYWAY! If you want the rest [...]

He’s at that age…

The Professor only uses one word: “no.” He has said a few others, but they seem to stay for only a week and then they disappear behind “dibbity goo gooo pffffftttttt.” I wish his first word was Momma or Dadda, but nope. Oh well, at least he’s communicating.
But the other day while [...]

My apologies

So even the most infrequent visitor will have noticed my extreme lack of posts. I am really sorry. I’m in this rut that exceeds writers block. Luckily with my hobbies, I almost always have something to write about. So I can’t use writer’s block as an excuse. I have just [...]
