Because someone actually requested I post these…. TA DA it’s T.D. in all her uber-serious first hair cut glory. BEFORE Yes, that is a Red Sox cheerleader uniform. Suck it, I won the Spirit stick as a kid at Cheer Camp. DURING It is as if she is watching EVERY hair being cut. I think [...]

Nick Nolte mug shot T.D. mug shot Should I be worried? What next, she gets her big girl teeth and starts looking like Gary Busey?!
Pffft… Who needs sleep?!

We don’t need a new baby to give us sleepless nights. Nope. We have T.D. a.k.a. the Sleep Torturer. Just like her name, the Tiny Dictator, she has blossomed into a czar who makes sleeping four hours in a row seem like bliss. For example: I pass out at 7:30 p.m. last night. Lucky me. [...]
What’s with the Peeing?

Seriously folks. Lately, I could easily say that today is brought to you by the letter, ‘P’. It is not just me. I know that I’m waking up a bazillion times a night now to use the head but there is also the dog incident. Now this- 4:36 a.m.- Crying. There is loud wailing come [...]

Dinner time, our house, last night… T.D. swipes a fork from the table at lightening speed and quickly hides it on her person. Me: This isn’t prison, put the fork back on the table! H tries to keep from spitting food out of his mouth. Moments later T.D. has swiped another fork and poked herself [...]

Sure you have your Cabbage Patch Kids, The Golden Books, your Strawberry Shortcake, throw in some Winnie the Pooh or Where the Wild Things Are and you have yourself many childhood favorites. All things many of us look back on with happy nostalgia. However, it was while I was visiting Paris during my pregnancy that [...]
She’s Crafty

THUD! CRASH! BANG! Footsteps can be heard running overhead with the sound of hysterical Joker-esque laughter following it. Yelling quickly ensues. It sounds like an old Adam West Batman episode is at play in my house. Aah, nap time! That crash was her pink plastic pig. The thud? A pile of books she has unceremoniously [...]
Poof! You’re Two!

From this to this in what seems like 0 to 60 in no time flat. Look at you, you are two today. Because of that, I suppose I should write some sappy hearts and flowers post about how it is hard to believe that two years ago on this very day, you my sweetie face [...]
She’s Two- does she really need that party?
February 22, 2008 By 10 Comments
T.D. turns two on Sunday. It’s T.D. the 2.0 version. As the date draws near I have begun to feel real anxiety about my lack of planning for her big day. There will be no party. Only cake. No balloons, no company invading our home for hours with little tykes to hurl cake around. We’ll [...]
