We came home from errands today and within moments of walking into the house, Charlotte took her shorts off. Potty-training bare-bottom technique backfire. Take 254. I’ll just be thankful it wasn’t at the store. Or at a church we were visiting again after having moved away seven years earlier. Oh yeah, that’s never happened.
It’s been hot. Hot enough that, were I really on top of things, I could have the clothes hung on the clothesline, back off the clothesline, folded and put away by the time the next load is finished washing. If only I were that good. Pierce is, slowly but surely, deciding to move. He propels […]
Exposed.
Motherhood moment of the day: At the second to last stop, including a bit of time spent at the park, finding your dear newly potty trained daughter without her undergarments. Sad admission: It’s not the first time it’s happened. FYI: I found said undergarments in our bathroom, upon arrival at home. Apparently, while I put […]
Another giveaway. If you can handle it.
Purex, as a thank you for making their Dry Idea campaign successful, has sent me three (more!) coupons to give away. Can you handle more freebies? I have three coupons for free Purex TripleAction laundry detergent. Comment here or on a big (little) family facebook page for a drawing. I’ll draw on Friday.
Shortcomings. Major shortcomings.
I made rice crispy bars yesterday. I made them for community group… and forgot to take them. Perfect. Ruby’s been eyeing them ever since though. She has a question though. “Why, when you buy them from the store, they aren’t attached, but when you make them, they are all attached? And in a pan?” I’m […]
Pierce, meet Watermelon.
Last year, I wrote this post about Charlotte’s first experience with watermelon. In keeping with tradition, here’s Pierce’s first encounter with the fruit. It’s just too much fun to hand it to them and let them go at it. It’s less fun with it’s time to clean up the mess. But again, totally worth it.
From the Land Down Under
“Mom, how does your hair spray smell good when it’s made out of kangaroos?” Sterling wants to know. Aussie, you want to take this one?
Just a swingin’
The swing that Uncle Brian hung in the tree in our front yard a year and a half ago has been used on a nearly daily basis by many small children. Today, it bit back. Think I should help her?
Sterling, revised.
One little boy’s freckled, speckled nose now holds a pair of blue spectacles. He’s enjoying the game of pretending he’s upset about them. Every so often, though, I catch him making faces at himself in the mirror and smiling.
9 months.
Little Man Pierce is getting so big. He’s now 9 months old. He’s finally broke through his first tooth. He can pull to stand on me, but hasn’t pulled up on anything else yet. He doesn’t crawl, but he does try to scoot. Mostly it just makes him mad. When he’s mad, he’s been known […]
