Putting My Money Where My Mouth Is
photo credit: Rob Lee So Michael and I walk into a furniture store … Wait, let me back up a little bit. Michael got a fat bonus from work, a really fat bonus. And we decided to spend part of it on a new bed for the boys. At the old house they each had a small bed of their own. ...

Spammer Discovered!
For a while now I’ve had a problem with spammers. They rush in, leave long jumbled comments of nonsense, sometimes writing in what appears to be a foreign language. I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out how these spammers keep finding me. And then, I caught a spammer ...

I Was A Toddler Vampire
Excuse the poor quality, it’s a photo of a (very old) photo. This is an actual photo of me when I was around 2. Take a close look at the mouth. Closer. A little closer. Come on, just a little closer. Yes, those would be fangs. Like a vampire. Rawr! When I was 2 I fell off ...

Diapers!

Cloth Diaper Girl
In all the moving I found a bag with a few half finished cloth diapers just waiting to be be sewn. This was the only one actually finished. I’m pretty sure I made it, the stitches are a bit wobbly and uneven. But for the life of me I cannot remember when or for whom I made this ...

I Used To Be A Democrat
photo credit: D.James | Darren J. Ryan I was a card carrying member of the Democratic party, loud and proud of being on the progressive side of the fence. And then the Democrats decided women were pawns in the health care game and sacrificed us without blinking. So after I finished ...

Of Girls, Boys, and Gender
photo credit: beelerspace There was a time when I wanted a daughter. A girl that I could share the stuff of female-ness with. I got 2 boys. But that was OK. The more I looked around the world and looked back on my own experiences, the more I decided trying to raise a girl was ...

Cloth Diaper Love
photo credit: tiffanywashko Once upon a time I was disgusted by the idea of cloth diapers . I turned my nose up at them, made faces at the idea of washing and reusing a diaper, and became grossed out when I read other bloggers talk about them. And then I had a child with a severe ...

Time To Move On

Halloween Photos
Saturday night I was attacked by a punk rocker, a clown, and a baby mouse. It was frightening, especially after the sugar kicked in. The kids had a blast, got far too much candy, and are already making plans for next year’s event. We made Evan’s costume from clothes ...

Real Food
I’ve been reading The Omnivore’s Dilemma and it’s got me thinking a lot about food. Not just food, but food labels. Especially the lying labels. Did you know labels lie? I didn’t either. I know, naive me. I assumed that when a label looked like this: that the ...
