O, save me from myself. I am VERRRRY tempted to let my inner passive aggressive beeyotch out to play.
Here’s the background: Daddy J and I go to a fundraiser/dinner/music performance on Monday night. We have a great time. We bring wine. There is a silent auction and I bid on four [...]

So, here’s Rainbow with one of his newer tricks – sticking his tongue out and licking his lips. My computer skills do not extend to editing, so move it to 54 seconds or so and watch how cute he is.
And here he is, rolling about on the floor with some [...]

Thank you so much, friends, for commenting and for reading and for just being here. We’ve made it through another birthday, and it was just lovely. The weather was perfect, again, and kids had fun and ate cookies and people admired Ward’s sculpture. I think Daddy J must have downloaded the pics onto his laptop [...]

The last day or so, I keep going back to sort of painful memories. Sort of sad, not-really-sure-why-they-are-popping up memories. I keep thinking about going to the YMCA with Ward when he was an older toddler, close to the time of his accident. I remember taking him to the nursery and walking him in. The nursery people didn’t [...]

So, yes, everything’s actually going wonderfully. Just blindingly fast and busy-like, but all is well.
Rainbow had what is probably the mildest cold ever (thank you, thank you, thank you) and just never got really sick at all. After one morning of a half-hour of icky rivulets from his nostrils, there was just a wee bit [...]
baby’s first cold

Yeah, not so much a happy milestone, but inevitable, I suppose. He’s been kind of crabby the last few days, which I attributed to teething, and coughing just a bit, which I also attributed to teething. But this morning he woke up with light yellow goop escaping from his nostrils, which I don’t [...]

Feeling very blessed (and blissed) this morning. The big boys are doing amazingly well at their challenging schools, making friends, getting good reports from teachers, and just having a terrific year so far. Rainbow is an adorable, healthy little love. I get to be married to Daddy J and have this life [...]

This was from about a month ago. It’s so hard to film this boy; he can be laughing, chatting, doing all kinds of tricks, but as soon as he sees the camera, he’s FASCINATED. And then gets mad when he can’t eat it.
um…

So, evidently an insurance company had an issue with a 4 month old baby who weighed a whopping 17 pounds. They said he was obese and denied coverage, then later revised that decision.
Which, clearly, is goofy on so many levels, but specifically and personally: Rainbow weighed 20 pounds and 11 ounces at four months. [...]

My morning project (which turned out to be a LENGTHY project) was copying old private blog pages into Word, just in case the old blog got closed for some reason. It was quite an undertaking; I didn’t realize how very much I had written. It ended up being, I think, 54 pages with [...]
