Of what is Halloween an anniversary, you ask? Here’s a hint:
[The hint was borrowed from Cakewrecks -- the funniest blog ever. Go read it so they don't get mad that I borrowed their image. It is just so dang appropriate.]
Have you guessed?
Two years ago. Two years ago, and I will probably never ever forget it [...]

The Adventures of Quickman and Speedyboy
I don’t know if we should wait until the day before an event, such as Halloween or a birthday party to get Cakie’s opinion on things.
For a good long time, Cakie wanted to be an astronaut for Halloween. My honey was psyched to create a jet pack. She even acquired a realistic safety-orange astronaut costume [...]

Playground, Two Boys, One Mom
Having two kids makes a person a different kind of parent.
Namely, I can no longer hover over my one child and marvel in his every move. I can’t stand under him to catch him if he falls head-first from the bar from which he’s hanging upside-down. If I do, I won’t be able to catch [...]

Doc!
I haven’t been able to get my doctor on the phone. Teachers and phone calls during the day don’t always mix.
Then today I’m pretty sure I saw her while we were apple-picking in Westchester. I wanted to run up to her and her daughter and yell, “Doc! I think I might have a prolapsed bladder [...]

Morning Sickness
No, I’m not pregnant (though I am experiencing several annoying pregnancy symptoms.)
I’m just sick of the morning. 5:23 am, to be exact.
Sometimes it is 4ish. Once it was 3.
Trucker is a big fan of the sunrise. He hasn’t missed one in what feels like a year. And he’s just creeping up on 15 months old.
Sooooo. [...]
