“The Sick”

We’ve been battling “the sick” in our house for what seems like weeks. It’s gross, ugly, and turns patient mommy into frustrated mommy when she is woken up by insistent coughing and cries for medicine in the middle of the night. But no matter how tempted I am to run to the clinic over a…

Cool as a Muther Heffin’ Cucumber

This weekend I took our daughter swimming with a friend. Nothing too spectacular; her mother in a bathing suit; all the children of the world in one body of water; someone named Alynna having a birthday party; water up my nose and in my face. But we had fun and made it out unscathed. I…

The Magic of Easterchristmas

The Easter Bunny has come, and left our daughter to collect everything around our living room beyond Easter Sunday and colourful chocolates. She’s now pocketing small change and video games that have been left out. This year she had to be reminded that it was Easter and there was a bunny who brought eggs and…

Toddlerisms

My girl is almost three. She is a combination of silliness and sophistication that hasn’t quite found its way, making her into the perfect comedy. I have a bite mark on the inside of my cheek from holding back laughter when she presents her serious scoldings, lengthy stories, and little talks. She’s growing, and I don’t…

This Chick Right Here

I remember rocking my sweet baby after she had just barfed all over me (for the fourth time) and thinking about her toddler years; imagining long nights of slumber, days filled with fun, my sweet girl on my lap reading with me. But this chick right here? Isn’t following my toddler vision. Apparently when you’re…

Come Ride the Withdrawal Train

You might have noticed a new trend that has recently popped up around the blogosphere. Bloggers putting themselves in photos. It was crazy but it might have just worked! Well, not one to be left out, I jumped on board to document a typical day in the life. BUT, I’m riding the Lamictal withdrawal train…
