Different Eyes

They told me I would regret it. They told me I can’t just have one (and we’re not talking potato chips) They told me I needed one of each. They told me not to do that to my child. They told me to wait a few years. They told me I’d change my mind. I … Continue reading »

Post it note: The parking lot bully

I didn’t think we’d ever make it to Friday and now that we’re here it seems like forever until the clock hits 4:30 and I’m released into freedom. I’ve got some bad news people, brace yourself. Tomorrow we have a play date. The good news? It’s at my house in which is stocked with vodka.. … Continue reading »

It’s only juice boxes!

Lately, I’ve been forgetful. I mean forgive me, I am a mother and I think we should be excused and allowed to forget things on the daily. Feeling down about your mothering? Here, allow me to help you out….. Monday morning I forgot to take the Monster’s clean pillow and blanket to school for nap. … Continue reading »

Happy Birthday

Today  my sweet Monster turns 4 years old. I’m emotional. I’m emotional that he’s getting so fucking big so fucking quick. Who would have thought?  I mean you always hear people talk about how they grow up so quickly, but I honestly had no idea those idiots knew exactly what they were talking about, that … Continue reading »

One of those days.

Today is a sick day. I called in, once again to take the Monster to visit our second home—that being the pediatrician’s office. The verdict this time? Pharyngitis. Personally, I think its strep again and we just caught it too early, but I guess we’ll see. Mothers are always right when it comes to their children’s diagnosis, always. Because … Continue reading »

Post it note: Birthday invitations.

The Monster’s Angry Bird birthday bash was this weekend. Everything went well. The small gathering that I had envisioned in my head turned out to be a larger crowd than had originally thought. It was perfect thought, the more people meant the more kids for the Monster to play with. I’ve decided that next year … Continue reading »

The transition

It’s Thursday. The only reason I can tolerate Thursday is because I know its counter part, Friday is peaking around the corner or I’d hate it just as much as Monday. Meanwhile, it’s raining it’s ass off here. Naturally, this means the roads are full of idiots that forget how to drive when it slightly sprinkles … Continue reading »

The care-bear nightmare..

The Monster and I of course continue to co-sleep.(Because yes, I’m that kind of mom) Hey, I’m not complaining, it doesn’t bother me in the least bit. The one thing I don’t enjoy about co-sleeping? All the extra co-sleeping partners that some how wind up in my bed. Thank God for a king sized bed, … Continue reading »

Post it note; On Momma’s mind..

I’m convinced that Tuesday is just Monday playing dress up. I’m also convinced that the cute little muffin top I’ve been rockin’ has turned into something not so cute and little. (life of a mother) I’m taking music appreciation in the summer. What a joke. (why is this required, again?) My neck is still at … Continue reading »

I survived a play date!

I rolled out of bed at 7am yesterday (Saturday) in preparation for a play date. Max’s cousin was coming over to play-all day long. When I say all day I mean till 7pm. All day.  He’s a few years older than Max and just as hyper. Two superhero’s in once small confined space. I don’t … Continue reading »
