Had our big ultrasound today!

Well hello everyone ( Read more... )

Can we have a festival called "Wienerfest" -- seriously.
Seriously??
Yep, really.

It's this weekend folks.  And most importantly, Pat McCurdy is playing from 3:30-5pm.  So all you bored Minnesota folks, drive your asses down to La Crosse and enjoy some wieners.  Or, you know, some music.  And if you do, you better damn well let me know. Leave a comment  3 

So yesterday, we learned that our son has a MUCH longer reach than he did just a few weeks ago.  He somehow managed to get into a jar of vaseline while Jai was on the computer.  (I was at work, btw).  When Jai discovered him, he had a "face mask" of vaseline from his belly (oh yeah, all over the shirt!) up his neck, his face, HIS HAIR, and down ( Read more... )

So yesterday, get ready for it.... Jai took Emerson to Milwaukee.  Which means, oh yeah, that I spent last night ALONE in my house.  No other people.  No baby, no husband.  It has been about 16 months since I've been alone in my home overnight.  (Yeah, I'll let that sink in for the worms without kids... the rest of you will understand ( Read more... )

Facebook is just as addicting as myspace, dammit. Just signed on to facebook (though I've been on myspace for years, I'm proud to say) because Jai just got on facebook.  And he's already addicted.  So now I'm addicted.  It hasn't even been 24 hours, but I already have more friends than him. HA!  Guess that means my friends are geekier.... or easier ( Read more... )

So it's Halloween today.  I work at a newspaper, and things are pretty flexible around here.  Lots of people dress up.  I especially like the girls who are normally NOT slutty, who decide to dress slutty at work.  It's not even 8am and there are two of us in corsets already (yes, of course I am one of them, sheesh).  Don't worry, I will keep ( Read more... )

Well I figured this was one of the easiest ways to get a hold of a bunch of you Twin Cities folk.  Looks like Emerson and I will be in Minneapolis this weekend, staying with the lovely Martin family (so that Emerson can start corrupting Axel as early as possible).  I'll have the kid all weekend, so a hard-core bar drinking night won't happen, lol ( Read more... )
