That child had three–count ‘em three–opportunities to eat cake and he refused all of them. And it was three different varieties of cake (chocolate with vanilla frosting, vanilla with rainbow frosting, and ice cream cake), so it’s not like he just didn’t like vanilla or something. Not that I’m trying to force food on him, [...]

Sorry ’bout updating the photos a bit late this month. The weekend got the better of me. Now that we’ve passed the one-year milestone, I don’t think it makes sense to update monthly anymore. So I’ll update when I have a good group of photos and put in the upper left-hand nav here when new [...]

I’m a liberal person. I believe people should be free to do pretty much whatever they want to do. However, there is something so horribly wrong and so horribly irresponsible about this that I don’t even know where to begin. Who allows their child to dress in a costume like this? Doodles will be some [...]

…I post that Doodles is still drinking formula. It’s the last time I post that he’s not allowed to eat strawberries and honey. It’s the last time I post that he’s required to be in a rear-facing car seat (although we’ve decided to keep him rear-facing for another six months at least because it’s safer; [...]

I’m a sucker for a catalog. Even if they are mistakenly sent to my house. I can look at them with Doodles and not care at all if he rips them up before I finish it. Just last week a Personal Creation catalog was misdirected to our house. And a few things stood out. Like [...]

Never thought I’d say this but Ben Rudnick is better live. Our town has free concerts at the library during the summer (odd, isn’t it? The only place they shush you is the place where they blare music). Ben Rudnick played and Doodles loved it. I mean he was so into the crowd, loved crawling [...]

Doodles is still having food issues. He loves his Veggie Booty, Cheerios, Goldfish, graham crackers, fruit puffs, and animal crackers. Notice something about these foods? They all crunch. I tried to give him a piece of bread at lunch today while we were out. It was good bread. Normally he wouldn’t deign to even pick [...]

Yes, I find shoes ridiculous. But I acknowledge they are a necessary evil. Which is why I own a few pairs. And now that my little monkey is getting ready to make the transition from the Infant Room to the Tiny Tot Room at day care, he needs shoes as well. Even though he’s not [...]

Doodles was sick last week. A fever and a sore throat. The doctor diagnosed him with coxsackie virus (which I don’t think it was because he never got the blisters and healed really quickly), better known as hand, foot, mouth disease. Much to my disappointment, it has nothing to do with hoof and mouth disease. [...]
