It’s official

My status as temporary stay-at-home-mom began this afternoon when I picked up Jet from his last day at playschool.
I’ll admit that I’m a little scared. I know I don’t have to keep him entertained 24/7 — he’s really pretty good at playing on his own. I just don’t think I can compete with his playschool [...]

New Frog "Ungrella"

A gift from Aunt Beezneez last weekend:
Jet has carried it everywhere this past week; he was actually able to use it this morning! He carried it (while I carried him) into his playschool this morning, and his friends were all duly impressed.

Good job, Beezneez! He loves it!

No, really, I’m married!

I’m not wearing my wedding ring these days. I love the ring (and my husband!), but I’ve started having some sort of reaction to it.
The inside of the ring has “I love you” cut out of the band underneath the diamonds, which is the reason why Knight bought it. Something is going on, [...]

Big enough, but still little

We went to the library over the weekend. It’s so nice — all big and new and clean!
Jet loves to climb this staircase. Last time we were there, I knew I needed to get a picture of him doing this. The juxtaposition of his little self being big enough to climb this huge set of [...]

FREE MOVIES!

BTW, prepare thyselves for an onslaught of posts in the next couple of days. There have been many happenings in the Knight/Damsel/Jet clan. I’ve not been able to blog, though, precisely because of all those happenings. I shall update you as I’m able.
First things first, though. You may or may not know that bargains make [...]

From a Jet’s eye point of view

Our son is a budding photographer. We taught him how to take pictures today, and I was surprised at how well he did. As I flipped through the pictures, it hit me that he really does see the world from a very different angle.
Here is his first exhibit. We’ll call it On the Way to [...]

What is love?

Love is:

prying off the baseboard under the bathroom sink to treat for cockroaches after reading your wife’s blog post about squicking and shuddering over them
doing your dead-level best to find the best job that will meet your family’s needs as well as your own personal needs
scooping vomit out of the car seat after your son [...]

In which I screamed like a little girl

… or at least wanted to rilly rilly bad.
Confession: We have a cockroach problem. It’s not a big problem, numbers-wise. I’ve seen maybe 5 since we moved in last October. It IS a big problem, squicking-out-wise, because these suckers are so big they should be able to drive Jet’s trucks around. And maybe they do [...]

On a side note: The music didn’t work for Jet tonight. He ended up drinking some warm milk and falling asleep on [...]

One More Monday

Today is my last Monday at school! It’s also my last full day — tomorrow we start final exams, and those days are half days.
I’ll be pretty busy today, though. I have to type up the fetal pig practicum for my anatomy class, and write four exams. Whee.
Jet is wearing [...]
