I'm starting Flashback Fridays! They may not be every Friday, but it's a chance for me to remember something, and maybe even dig out a photo or two. To give credit where it's due, it was Chases's idea. So here comes a little memory! Many of you may remember when Chase and I announced our … [Read more...]

Baby Jail
I had to institute Baby Jail today. With Red crawling EVERYWHERE , and in seconds, taking out the trash or cleaning the dog's bowls can become a treacherous task.

As you can see, I had an entire post planned and started before THE EVENT happened tonight. … [Read more...]

Other savvy Mamas have mentioned to me that the sippy cup at this age is merely a toy on the tray; that we can have a few more months with … [Read more...]
