Mommy will get back to the foody goodness later – Tuesday was non stop rain, crabby baby mommy, me loving my mommy so much that she got nothing done, and going slowly crazy from our rain imposed entrapment in the house. Amy hijacked her mommy’s email last week and sent me this. I’m so glad to see babies around the globe working together for the betterment of our parents. Sleep.. Read More
Eat yer farkin’ veggies
Okay, so yesterday I talked about my weird ass issues with my hands and hand washing. I’ve used the homemade sanitizer for a fews days now and I really like it. The consistency is relatively the same as the stuff you would buy, the lavender does smell nice and works with the alcohol, rather than competing with it. I’m assuming my hands are marginally cleaner than they were before –.. Read More
Clean Hands
So, all good cooks know that clean hands are a must for pre food touching. All good mommies know that clean hands are a must – just because they are a must. Here’s a little tidbit about me: I dee-test the feeling of my hands after they have had soap on them. They feel dry and sandpapery, and they catch on things and ick! ew! And with the heinous nail..

Betty F. Crocker
Okay, so the theme of this week is getting chosen by me. And only because it’s timely. And SHOCKING. SHOCKING Betty Friggin’ Crocker possessed our bodies. I don’t know wtf happened. I’m still reeling. One minute Scout was waving around his man-squash And the next, our refrigerator looked like this This week, I’ll tell ya’ll about this demon possession.

Word of the Day
Isn’t it great how some words just make you giggle? I have a friend who is incapable of keeping a straight face if you say the word ‘jism’ to him. I have another friend who is totally creeped out by both ‘crevice’ and ‘moist’ – to which, I of course just say “put your hands together my friend” and taunt with the ‘moist crevice’. The moist thing has even come.. Read More
Dear readers of mommy’s blog,
Kaiser Alex here. Just wanted to let you know that Operation Break Parental Unit’s Spirit is working swimmingly! I have steadily sleep deprived mommy and daddy all week long – letting them have a tiny bit of sleep until the middle of the night, when I decide I need to keep telling them I love them feed me dammit! I’m in a growth spurt here, can’t you SEE?!? I have.. Read More
I’m gonna be a supah-model
Scout and the Kaiser and I are going to go have family photos taken today. By a real (expensive) live (expensive) studio (expensive) photographer. Why? Well, I went to my favorite crunchy granola mommy store and she had gift cards for a free sitting fee with them. A three hundred dollar value. Seriously. But… Scout and I have never had a professional photo taken … the Kaiser has really great.. Read More
I love y’all
I do, it’s true. Here’s Proof One: I *cleaned* for you. And Lisa is right – of course I had a method. Of course I did. But just so no one is feeling all tight of breath over my system, I have rearranged it for you. And no. No you may not ask to see the “Desktop” folder. *** Here’s Proof Two: Seriously. Thank you, each of you, for commenting.. Read More
Desktop meme
I got tagged by Kelli and Veronica for the desktop meme – Here ya go … That’s our first child Tavish, and there’s all my files that are all over the place. I’m tagging Jennifer and Ewokmama. And anyone else who wants to do it too… (Ten Steps for Creating Breast Health)
Blog Action Day
I’ve had that little bit of swag over in the sidebar for a month or so now, I found it over at Doodaddy and thought this would be a nice change from my normal rant about boobs and lack of sleep. Blog Action Day this year is focusing on the environment, and unless you are totally a no impact person, living under a rock, without access to any kind of.. Read More
That contest…
Remember the one? I used the Integer Generator at random.org – there were 21 comments so I had it pick 1 number between 1 and 21. The first number it spit out was one of my own comments, so I had it select again – and it gave us … the number… 1 Congrats Veronica, and thanks your advice for my girl. Shoot me an email with your postal address.. Read More
Baby Love
It had been an okay night of sleep in our house. I pulled Alex over to me to cuddle him close, because it was a touch cool in our bedroom. I wasn’t fully awake. I held my baby and smelled his head. I drifted deeper to sleep. Asking myself the question, “Why was I thinking of warm water streaming against my abdomen?” Was I dreaming of the bathtub. Um. No… Read More
Birth Story Chapter Six – Hello baby
(The birth story series starts here.) Scout had his last day of work, we celebrated by going to Target and buying … whatever we wanted. Like two drunks on a final bender. I woke around 430 to pee. I wandered to the bathroom in the dark, realizing I was rather awake. I felt a cramp. Oh please. I started writing the times of these cramps. I breathed a sigh of.. Read More
