Trying to write with one hand while holding an almost-two-year-old with your other is kind of a challenge. Just saying ( Read more... )

Wellllll. Today is a good day.

Part of me can't believe that Don and Anne are actually married now, and I mean that in the nicest way possible, you two! (And I swear to Merlin if you actually reply to this, I'll come over there, and- actually, no, I'm staying far far away)

Why I'm writing and not enjoying in the party with everyone else right now ( Read more... )

Well, I'm happy to say that Jimmy absolutely LOVED the match I took him to earlier this month. Like, he actually got fussy when we had to leave, and everything. It was so cute and I'm so relieved that we might have a future in this. HA.

It was a good Quidditch season for both Portree and the Kestrels (and absolutely not a shocker that no one could ( Read more... )

I am taking Jimmy to his first Quidditch match on Sunday, June 9th. Portree versus Tutshill. I (we?) don't even really care if Devin gets to play (although it would be absolutely brilliant if he got to go in). Though since it is the last match of the season it would be nice, but.

I'll let him know when he's older that he made his Mam miss ( Read more... )

Jimmy's awake and playing with his toys (it's late, of course he is), and it's my turn to get up with him, so... here I am. I figured it less stressful not to fight with him on the whole sleep thing, it just means my schedule is now warped to fit his warped view of waking hours. We're trying to get him to operate on the schedule that most human ( Read more... )

Well, my birthday (twenty-one, oh my) was yesterday and it passed without much fanfare, I am happy to say. With all the stuff that my family does over Christmas the last thing I wanted was for them to make a big deal out of this one (dinner on Christmas Eve with the clan is more than enough for me, thank you very much). I believe I even ( Read more... )

Devin and I are definitely blessed (or would that be cursed?) with a nocturnal baby, sweet Merlin. The bloody sun's not even up yet, and he is rearing and ready to go for the day (and has been for some time now). We've been trying to get it across to him that nighttime is for sleeping but clearly it isn't working, is it ( Read more... )
