New skills and stuff...
Posted on 7:13 AM by paritory
This post should be called "Random bragging and other random stuff." Don't say you haven't been warned.***I made a huge deal out of Talmage's first haircut. He was basically bald until he was 2, but he did have a mad set of wings behind both ears. James kept urging me to cut them, and I kept putting it off, somehow scared that it would transform him overnight (or over-haircut) from babyhood to toddlerdom. At nearly 18 months old when I finally cut...

anyone else?
Posted on 8:43 PM by paritory
I honestly have butterflies just looking at these faces. Word on the street is that season 3 won't be in the USA until 2013. 2013? I'm very seriously considering taking another European hiatus so I can see it sooner. It would be worth it. What am I ever going to do with a full year of no Downton? It's Monday night (the night I usually hit up pbs.com and get my fix) and I'm experiencing serious withdrawals. Reruns will be my only saving grace. Lots...

There's nothing like a sleeping baby

Totally cliche, but there's nothing like a sleeping baby. Except for maybe one who is awake and looks as cute as he do...

Yo Mom, lay off the carrots
Posted on 8:22 AM by paritory
I know you made a whole batch of carrot mush recently, but I'm feeling a little like Rudolph (except my nose is an orange hue instead of his red). Can we cut back just a little? Thanks. And PS--just wanted to remind you that when my big brother T was my age, actually younger, you fed him ice cream cake. I'm just saying, I think I've been gypped!...

A Weekend Full of Fam
Posted on 12:35 PM by paritory
This last weekend was full of fam in a wonderful way. We were so excited to see so many faces, and we hope that we'll see them again soon (and more of your faces too por favor). Here's the play by play of everyday:FRIDAY: Grandma is in town from Chicago to help take care of baby Lacey so she stopped by for a hug and a hello. She also brought T a new book called "Noisy Zoo" which he hasn't stopped playing with/reading since. T asked her to put on...

A new President's Day tradition
Posted on 8:05 PM by paritory
We walked into the courtyard this afternoon to find a pack of anxious under-fours, all dressed in their best Halloween duds. They said trick-or-treat, and before I even made it into the house for some Halloween-in-February candy T was sprinting up the stairs, "I need my cape. I need my cape." For the next hour or more these little crazies ran around the courtyard (possibly on a small sugar-high) extremely pleased with their ability to fool more than...

on the things he wears
Posted on 8:33 AM by paritory
Sometimes he lets me pick out his outfits.Sometimes he pick out his own clothes.And sometimes he decides that clothes are just overrated. In other news, I kind of wish he would take this little comic to heart. In case you can't read it, it's a mom telling her son, "They got extinct because they didn't listen to their mommies!" My friend Comfort brought it by and it couldn't have been at a better time. Hilario...

At least he looks good in a suit
Posted on 8:50 PM by paritory
Talmage and I went on a little Mommy/Mister date a few days before Valentine's Day. Stanford was holding a family dance so we decided T and I would go while James and Evie hung out at home. I thought it would be good for us to get out and do something fun together.I was REALLY excited for the dance, and T couldn't stop talking about it. We have dance parties in our living room just about everyday, and we were both looking forward to dancing the night...
