Didja think I was dead?? I’m still here, later than normal but alive. This morning I rushed to Jennies to cut out a bag which took far too long. My next bag is going to be magnificent folks. A real doozie. Watch out Louis Vitton! And then we drove all the way home to just… Continue reading I’m So Bad at Titles.

Blah blah blah blah blah blah
GRRRR I’m so annoyed!!! I took some photos this morning and I was going to share them with you but somehow they didn’t end up on my CF card!!!! What the heck?? There was a beautiful moment this morning. I had spilled cheerios all over my kitchen floor and decided to clean it up after… Continue reading Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Isaac
Isaac….ohhhhhhhh Isaac. He makes my life very complicated. I didn’t think having a second child was that hard at first. Once mobility struck us, the hard meter went waaaaaaay up. I was thinking the other day about how much I could get done in a day when it was just Silas and I. Darling Silas… Continue reading Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Isaac
Yay Camping!
First and foremost, there’s new Zaza bags up. Linda made most of these are they’re lovely. Hopefully one will pop out at you!! It’s always nice to go camping and it’s always SUPER nice to get home, have a shower and collapse in your own, clean bed. Camping was SO much fun. We had our… Continue reading Yay Camping!
Sleeping Babies
I often find myself in my kid’s rooms every night, staring at their faces, trying to kiss them and smell them as much as possible without waking them up. There’s nothing as adorable as a sleeping child so I try to somehow embed their image in my mind so I can remember it later. The… Continue reading Sleeping Babies
Flab to Fab
I’d just like to start off with a big thank you to Jennie and her traveling lunges she made me do last night. My groin is just feeling FANTASTIC!! REALLY!! grrrrrrrrr. Jennie went to one of those bootcamps once and learned how to do it all and wrote up these little cards and now we… Continue reading Flab to Fab
Medic Alert
We got Silas’ Medic Alert bracelet yesterday. What an odd thing to see on my own little darling’s hand but I think it’s necessary. I wasn’t going to get one just yet but the parents on the allergy board made a very good point. I thought I was with Silas all the time so he… Continue reading Medic Alert
You Can Do It
Slowly coming back to life while her body fights off the last of the evil throat infection, Leah finds herself able to sit at the computer. Having given up on eggs and letting her savage son Silas devour most of them, she tries to swallow the last bits of food and collect her thoughts. Her… Continue reading You Can Do It
Ikey Bikey Boo
Isaac (Ikey, puppy, bear, buffalo, Ikey Okie Oh, Ikey Bikey Boo, Ike-aroni, zazazoozoo, chim chim) has decided his little feet are made for walkin and is using them for that quite often now. The little munchkin. WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS ANYWAY!??? Sorry. He’s just so cute and naughty. He does this little side… Continue reading Ikey Bikey Boo
Oh…This and That.
I’m finding myself feeling more and more like I have absolutely nothing to say some days. C’mon creative Leah brain, do your job! Silas has taken to his new bed rather nicely. He was getting up yesterday and bringing toys into his bed when he should have been napping but he eventually settled down to… Continue reading Oh…This and That.
A Vent and A Challenge
I’m going through this phase in my life where I’m getting really sick of our American culture. It’s so much about consuming. Consuming food, consuming “must have” clothes and products, self medicating through consuming. Buy buy buy and then buy some more because what you first bought isn’t good enough anymore. I especially have trouble… Continue reading A Vent and A Challenge
At My Wits End!
Today is a day where I just want to say ARRRRGGGG!! I am so frustrated with how vicious Silas is with Isaac. He pushes, pulls, slaps and scratches and, as of late, it seems to be going on constantly. If I turn my back to do something, quite often I hear a slap. I can’t… Continue reading At My Wits End!
Pretending
As I write this, Silas is playing the cutest game. He has his “Tebby” bear and is going through his own night time routine. He gives it a little cuddle, a kiss and a hug and says “WHUUUHHH” like he’s being squished. Then he places Tebby gently in my bed and closes the door verrrry… Continue reading Pretending
No Longer a One-Trick Pony
Well, it’s happening. Ikey is gracefully sliding into a….well…a person. He’s no longer just some leech that wiggles and sucks me dry. He’s actually doing quite a lot. Much to my obvious dismay. He’s mastered our stair case and will b-line his way to it at any open opportunity. He’s does the whole thing with… Continue reading No Longer a One-Trick Pony
Naked Mommy
(That title is going to give me some uncomfortable search engine hits I just know it) A few months back Leanne and I were chatting and somehow the topic of me showering with my kids was brought up. She brought up that Silas is going to start remembering things soon so I should probably stop… Continue reading Naked Mommy
