more Kleenex, please.
Wednesday, 28 September 2005 2:19 P GMT-08
We are finally croupless and steroid-free in this household....and now I am sick. Go figure. At least I can take my medicine without running around the house and throwing a full-fledged temper tantrum, so I *know* I'll get well soon. I'm prepar
More lengthy SAHM commentary...
Wednesday, 21 September 2005 9:32 P GMT-08
Twin has written a very thought-provoking and intelligent post about the NY Times article profiling women from Yale who are planning to shelve their careers to become stay-at-home mothers. Of course, this can of worms = my intense need to respond.
How many more doses until we're through?

Tate's latest steroid-induced activities include:1.) Waking up at 4am for the day2.) Turing around and around as fast as he can and then walking like a drunk across the floor3.) Increasing his batting average to .350(just kidding about that last one!
Croup update
Tuesday, 20 September 2005 8:17 P GMT-08
The patient seems to be doing markedly better today. He slept from 7 to 7 last night, only waking every three hours (as opposed to the every-hour-on-the-hour pattern he was doing a few days ago). In fact, I think he would've slept longer if it we
Emmys recap
Monday, 19 September 2005 4:00 P GMT-08
Did anyone catch the Emmy awards show last night? I have two things to say about it.First, I realized the *only* way to watch any awards show is with TiVO. Fast forward through all the boring acceptance speeches and get to the good stuff!And sec
Croup therapy
Monday, 19 September 2005 3:00 P GMT-08
One of the most physically and emotionally taxing aspects of parenting must be caring for a sick child. Tate's been nursing a cold for the better part of two weeks, which developed into a high fever, which then developed into croup! Gah! Poor
Our San Diego trip, in pictures.
Friday, 16 September 2005 8:17 A GMT-08
Okay, I promised pictures from our trip to San Diego, so here they are. Getting wiggly Tate to hold still for a picture proved to be an imposible task, but at least he had fun.
The view from our hotel room:
15-month well baby visit
Wednesday, 14 September 2005 7:23 P GMT-08
Yesterday was Tate's 15-month well baby visit at the pediatrician (a month late). He is 19.8 pounds, 29 1/2 inches. (Since I'm really bad at record keeping, I thought I might try to keep track here.) Everything looks good; he's just a little li
Creepy crawlies
Tuesday, 13 September 2005 2:59 P GMT-08
Today I found the second black widow spider in our mailbox since last week. Nothing like having poisonous spiders living in a small, dark space where we regularly put our hands without looking first. C-R-E-E-P-Y!! I looked for a larger web o
San Diego
Saturday, 10 September 2005 10:52 A GMT-08
We spent Wednesday and Thursday in San Diego this week where a conference for the State Bar of California is taking place. Our trip was short, but is was *so* great to get a away, even if it was only for a night. The weather was so nice down there
Happy Anniversary
Thursday, 1 September 2005 7:27 P GMT-08
Today is my third wedding anniversary. And how am I celebrating? I am home alone, drinking a glass of wine and typing on the internet. LOL! So much for romance, eh?It's not that bad, really. : ) Jeremy and I have yet to celebrate an anniv
