Welcome
A very happy birthday to my good friend, lovely, smart and funny Rachel (or as Zoe calls her, Ray Chow)! May you have a wonderful year of honor grades, bearded-men viewing, Diet Coke, happy-making music, soccer, ice cream and caramel. I’ll induct you into the Old Lady Club whenever you’re ready. We get discounts on [...]

Maybe a little heavy for a late post, but…
So I’m kind of on a different 24-hour schedule. Can I still play NaBloPoMo? There has been no other vomit since last night. Zoe was her usual charming self, even playing peekaboo with our interviewee guest this evening. I spent a whole 10 minutes at the interview social tonight when I went to retrieve said [...]

Ick
Please excuse my tardy and brief post tonight. We were just helping Zoe wind down for the night when she vomited out of nowhere. Twice. She was quite upset to have soiled some clothes. I’m hoping it’s just an isolated incident caused by too greasy a dinner of pizza (forgive me), which she thoroughly enjoyed. [...]

Product Review: Market Pantry Cheese Squares
11.11.08 | Permalink | 3 CommentsDue to the unavailability of Cheez-It during Joel’s most recent trip to Target, he took a gamble on an unknown box. Target’s own brands rarely disappoint us. Archer Farms is good, and their line of Market Pantry products is generally reliable and less expensive. (Nothing beats HEB for store-brand quality, however.) Plus, they were on [...]

Rain rain!
11.10.08 | Permalink | 4 CommentsThis morning was kind of awesome. I awoke to a sweet, snuggly baby who showed very little indication of being awake anytime soon. I checked the weather by sight and feeing the window; chilly, and dry, but not for long. No wonder Zoe was still asleep. By the time I washed my face it was [...]

Activity increase
Since school started, I have found myself more plentiful. Perhaps it is my all day classes causing me to be more sedentary, or the stress eating, or the decreased breastfeeding while maintaining the same appetite, or perhaps I’m finally old enough that my metabolism is mocking me. Whatever it is, I do not appreciate this [...]

6 things
11.09.08 | Permalink | 2 CommentsA long while ago I was tagged by my friend Kerri to tell six quirky things about me. I’m not sure what constitutes quirky. I’m pretty sure most things about me a quirky. Here we go. 1. My email has gotten out of control. Joel keeps referring me to Inbox Zero, to which I reply [...]

That’s one way to do it…
I fell asleep with Zoe again last night and didn’t post. I have no regrets. Lying down with that child is like taking a potent sleep aid. Today, as has become custom on Saturdays, I started picking up a few things here and there. I decided finally to put away all my cake pans that [...]

Zoe’s newest stats
11.07.08 | Permalink | 3 CommentsSome may recall that recently Zoe was put on a butter diet to fatten her a bit. The following checkup was disappointing to the pediatrician, who wanted to see her again in a month. At Tuesday’s appointment, Zoe measured 84.5 cm (33.3″) tall, 23 pounds 3 ounces, and her head is 48.5 cm (19.1″) around. [...]
