Literally
2010
Sometimes the boys say the funniest things, and they don’t even know they’re being funny. Usually it’s because they took a phrase literally. Over the weekend, there was a Kick Buttowski (a new favorite cartoon of theirs) marathon on Disney XD. Kick says, “Aw, biscuits,” when things don’t go his way. Perfectly acceptable in my… read more »
Caption This Photo

I did an impromptu photo shoot with my 3yo yesterday morning. Let’s have a little fun. Not knowing any of the background of the shoot, caption this photo. Leave your caption in the comments.
Kids and Cell Phones
2010
I let my three year old play with my phone when we’re eating out and he needs a distraction. He likes to draw or play with the calculator. Sometimes he goes online and plays on the Nick Jr. site. The other day however, he had a new trick. I got an e-mail from a friend… read more »
Wildlife Strikes Again
2010
The wildlife on post strikes again. Our first Halloween here, the squirrels and/or bunnies ate our pumpkins. I have a deep suspicion it was the squirrels. Now I got a strawberry pot. It had four plants. There was evidence of digging in the main area of the pot, and now there’s only one plant in… read more »
I Have a Campaign for Keurig

He says you’re 40′s or 50′s like his parents.”Me: “Zach, I’ve told you he’s a little jerkface that you don’t need to be… read more »
School Pictures
2009
I always hesitate to purchase the packages from LifeTouch that the school offers. Their photographers seem to have always missed photography 101. In Kindergarten my son had art class before pictures and they had his whole shirt in the picture complete with white paint. In the first grade Spring pictures they used too much of… read more »
Nuts
2009
Last night we went to Jigsy’s for pizza per our usual Wednesday routine. The dessert on the buffet was brownies with walnuts. After finishing dinner, I went and got one for myself and a small one for Aaron. He didn’t want it, so I asked Zach if he’d like it while waiting for more white… read more »
Cookies
2009
We were all getting some snacks one afternoon over the weekend when my 2 year old requested cookies. OK. So we got him a cookie. No, that’s not what he wanted. So we got him one of the other kind of cookies we had, and he didn’t want that either. Frustrated, I finally told him… read more »
