Pants? Depends.
We’re still working hard at potty training CJ. He has no problem going pee in the toilet and staying dry through the day but he doesn’t poop in the toilet. He can make it through the whole day without an accident. The poop accident usually occurs after he gets home from school. We have him [...]
There’s Something About Juliet
You remember Juliet, don’t you? Juliet is the kitten that RB adopted last year while I was in LA. She was very small and very cute. She’s been growing and getting into all sorts of things, like kittens do. But about a month ago we noticed something strange. Juliet kept bothering Romeo. She’d tackle him [...]
Holiday Thanks For My Parents
I love Christmas, it’s my favorite holiday of the year. From as far back as I can remember that has been the case. I think this is partially the case because of the visual beauty of the holiday. Since I was little I’ve always enjoyed the sights of Christmas. My parents go all out. The [...]
My Brother And My Son – Asleep In Kissimmee
LB2 and 2 in our vacation home last night. I thought it was cute to see them this morning asleep in almost identical positions.
24th Anniversary
24 years ago today I got married. It doesn’t really seem like it’s been that long. I was young – only 19. For those wondering if I’d do it again, the answer is yes. Sure, we’ve had our bumps in the road but I think we’re better for them. We renewed our vows in 2006. [...]
Boobies And Bathing Suits
My son TJ went to the mall today with his girlfriend and her friend. The girls had wanted to go there to go shopping for bathing suits. He came home later in the evening, in an excellent mood. He said he had a good time at the mall. He’d spent $4 on a bracelet, exactly [...]
Shopping For Savings, Mom Style
My Mom has always been a careful, frugal shopper. She only buys things when they are on sale. She gets to know the sales patterns in the stores, and sometimes the sales people, so she’ll know in advance when items she wants to buy are going to be marked down. When she finds something that [...]
Spread The Word To End The Word
Today is the day to spread the word to end the word. The R-word that is. Nothing makes me angrier then hearing someone misuse and abuse the word retarded. I could go on and on about this. I’ve spoken about it a kajillion times. I’ve written about it.I don’t know that anything I have ever [...]
Mail Call!
Upon arriving home last night one of the first things I encountered were two GIANT piles of mail and packages. Both the kitchen and dining room tables each had a pile. I usually get our mail but since I was away RB got it. I couldn’t believe how much of it there was, until I [...]
Guess What We Found In The UK In EPCOT?
More from chilly Florida… CJ adores Thomas The Train (and all of the other trains). One of his tro favorite things to do is play with all of his trains. We didn’t bring any Thomas trains with us on this trip, as I didn’t want them to get lost at $5 or more apiece. I [...]
The Teacups Kicked My Butt – With A Little Help
This is a teacup from the Teacup ride at Walt disney world. Looks harmless enough, doesn’t IT? I got off of there feeling green and woozy. That’s because the teacup had some help spinning around. Here are the two culprits, who thought that spinning it as fast as it could go was really funny, as [...]
Only A Few More Days To Florida!
I’m so excited – I’m going to Disney next week! I’m really looking forward to seeing CJ’s reaction in the parks as he’s really into Mickey and Pooh. He and I are flying out on Tuesday. My parents, as well as my brother LB3 and his girlfriend Diva, are driving down. They left last night. [...]
Growing Up Faster Than An Eyebrow
Here’s something that I don’t think I’ve never mentioned. RB has a unibrow. Not only that, directly out of the middle of it grows a long hair, which we call his feeler because it waves around like a tentacle. It’s nothing a few hair removal wax strips wouldn’t take care of. But, it doesn’t bother him [...]
Don’t Ride If You Don’t Know What You’re Doing
My son TJ has been thinking about blogging so I’m letting him guest post a couple of times to see if he likes it. Please say hi to him. ***** Me and my friends went for a bike ride to the local skate park. When we got there we decided that we were going to [...]
