Ok, ok I know that last time I did a Not Me! Monday post a few weeks ago it was about the ridiculous lump of cash we forked over for a new rug (Have you rug shopped lately?! I need to start making area rugs and get in on that racket!) but this time I’m [...]
It’s crawling boot camp around here. We haven’t quite figured out the forward motion thing, but boy are we trying hard.
Watching my little one army crawl his way around our living room has made me want to keep those edible little knees protected but still dress him in less restrictive clothes. Baby leg warmers came [...]
Look what someone found in the clearance section of Pottery Barn last week:
Basically, each book was only $7, which is good because then I won’t feel so bad about drooling all over them.

Lots of people have had babies. Like, lots. 100% of [...]
Not to be confused with belly hair. Gross.
A couple weekends ago, Cindy and I experienced the Juut Aveda Salon in Minneapolis. No Tyra sightings, but it was awfully nice to wait in a lobby not filled with crying children and drink cucumber infused water out of shfancy mod glassware . I went chin-length again, which [...]
I’ve been reading some homemaker blogs lately. They make me feel inferior. I haven’t converted my 42 ft x125 ft city lot into a vegetable garden and I have no idea what steel cut oats are, or why you would soak them. I also don’t stay home all day. Minor detail.
