Don’t worry, Gadoo had a fantastic cat-sitter. And I’m sure he was happy to have a break from defending his life against the 2 year old. Our trip started with a red eye flight into Newark and we finally arrived in the actual New York City around 7am. Which is 4am California time! You betta…
The weeks leading up to our trip to New York were filled with dread and second thoughts and what the hell are we thinking?!? Every time Paul and I talked about it, we’d look at each other with true, deep fear in our eyes and debate calling the whole thing off. New York frickin’ City.…
I am always excited to learn about local adventures that are suitable for kids. So I was pumped to find a website called Red Tricycle. I signed up to receive the weekly newsletter especially for the Los Angeles area, (they also have one for New York, Atlanta, Chicago, San Francisco, etc) and it’s chalk full…
I have been feeling pretty burned out. For awhile. No matter how many adventures Stevie and I had, or how many friends I entertained, or how many summer adventures were planned, all I can think about lately is how tired I am. And how much I want to cancel every therapy and appointment and just…
Hey guys, I have a feature over on Stylin’ Mommies today! Just blabbing about my short hair… again. Head on over and check it out.
This morning I spent some time in front of the camera, instead of behind it. That was about as intimidated as I’ve ever been. I hate when I get all insecure and nervous! A bit relieved it’s over. If my calculations are correct – there are 24 hours in a day and about 16 of…
Today started out well enough. And it actually ended quite well too. But that whole bit in the middle was a huge load of crap. I picked up Stevie a little early from school. He had an eye appointment, and I knew if he didn’t at least get a short nap, that appointment just wouldn’t…
Among all the evaluations Stevie got last month, there was a sensory eval. In this one they look at all sorts of behavioral things, mainly how he reacts when given tasks, textures, movement, etc. The kid passed his visual test with flying colors. Go figure. The rest of the evaluation was mediocre, needs improvement in…
Nestled in the hills of Griffith Park, there are quite a few hidden treasures. So many areas we still haven’t explored, probably because I always return to the old favorites. Like this vintage wooden carousel. We’ve seen it many times, driven by countless amounts. But the dang thing always seems to be closed. So this…
I can’t stand bananas or kiwi. I think I ate them so much as a kid, they made me sick. I used Siri for the first time the other day. She updated my Facebook status accurately and did everything else wrong. Stupid Siri. Let’s talk about people who stare at my son. Not sweet people…
