I have never had so many hits on this blog as I’ve had in the past 24 hours. I never thought so many people would be popping by looking for baby news!
At any rate, thanks for all the support, everyone. The problem is that there still is no baby news. I have been reassured by [...]

I am prone to overthinking every little and big thing that comes along in life. (To the various assorted family members who read this blog and are now falling off their chairs in laughter as I once again state the obvious - knock it off. I’m going somewhere with this.)
Not so long ago I saw [...]

Move on, folks. Nothing to see here. Same old, same old. To wit:
Leonard the Great Big Doggie Who Goes WOOF! still lives here. But, thanks to Gran-Gran, he’s got himself a proper doghouse. Woo-hoo!
Spring is still here. There is no snowstorm going on as we speak. School was not cancelled today.

I have just discovered how to render a door-to-door salesman speechless.

We’ve spent a lot [...]

Kevin and I were doing the grocery shopping this morning, trudging (or in my case, waddling) our way up the health and beauty aisle. I glanced over at the shelf of nutritional supplements and saw a box of chocolate-covered almonds. The contents were clearly labelled as being “a healthy source of valuable Vitamin E and [...]

Nothing new to report here, yet. Leonard is finally (as of this afternoon) back to his normal good spirits, and it surely is nice to have a Happy Guy in the house again. I really hope we don’t see another tummy bug around these parts for years and years. Kevin’s Mom is in town, and [...]

Just a brief post because we’re all pretty exhausted around here…
Liam’s doing better today. We’ve still got a fair amount of malaise and general crankiness since he’s tired and his tummy still hurts. But he’s gained 1.5 pounds since Friday, and his fever is much lower. At his pediatrician’s appointment we reached the general consensus [...]
