I have a tummy ache this morning. Most likely, it is because, yesterday, Eleanor and I ate Bruster’s Ice Cream’s Birthday Cake (in a waffle cone) as an appetizer. Yup. Ice cream before dinner.
I promised her we would go for an ice cream if she took her nap and then got up [...]

I’m moving as fast as my baby laden bod can carry me to get ready for Crown List next week. Bambi and I are going together to the big SCA event where the next King is determined. I haven’t said much about the SCA here in, oh, EVER since I’ve not been super [...]

For those of you keeping score at home, we are up to 1.2 pees in the potty and 2 pees on the floor.
Not that it’s my place to tell you this, but Bambi went to Hershey, PA, over the weekend. I only mention it because I have the righteous jealousy of the girl who [...]
One step forward, two steps to the potty

I think I have overdone the potty thing with Elly, and I worry that I am messing her up as a person. As previously posted, Eleanor peed on the potty for the first time. We made a big deal about it, as that’s what all the advice says to do.
Today, Eleanor went pantsless [...]

Eleanor PEED IN THE POTTY!!!! Whoop-PEE!!!
I thought this day would never come!!! Who knew it would take 2 years, 8 months and 11 days before she would produce in the pot?
There were crying babies and much confusion and I wasn’t even in the room with her! (I heard this little voice shout from the bathroom, [...]

As Trish said, we need to loose some weight before we loose it all. I am paraphrasing of course, and you can go read her birthday posts on her page, but, as usual, she ain’t wrong.
So, in a show of solidarity with my very best friend, and bending a knee to the physicians who see [...]
Two bloggers walk into a Condo at the beach…

Wait, am I Thelma or are you? Here’s a joint blog, or more of a call and response blog, with eTrish. Go on, click over, ’cause she went first.
The beach rocks, even if we are all suffering from the allergens in the air. Less Thelma and Louise and more like Sleepy, Doc and Dopey. We, having [...]
Aid and a bed

Not only was our weekend in Chattanooga a blast, we managed to do some good parenting, too. Here’s what we accomplished:
New rules:
Elly is a big girl now and will drink from big girl cups (Bye Bye Sippies!)
Elly is a big girl now and will sleep in a big girl bed. (Bye Bye Crib)
Elly is a [...]
More Rock City

I didn’t take many pictures of the family in Chattanooga. It seems like my hands were WAY full all of the time. Strollers. Whatnot.
Eleanor really likes the Creative Discovery Museum. At about $9 for adults and the 2-and-under crowd free, the price is a real bargain. They have a special exhibit called MONEYVILLE, where there [...]
Saw Rock City

Chattanooga rocks! And it’s just not about Rock City. Tony, Bambi, the girls and I went to Chattanooga for the weekend and, weather aside, we had a super fine time. Do I have restaurant reviews? Oh, yes…
Let’s see….
We started our adventure by stopping at Fanoo’s Persian Tea House in Sandy Springs. [...]
