E is starting to use words in conjunction with each other, to refine the concepts he can communicate. It’s pretty cool! He started with “chair pop”, when one of the bubbles we blew popped against the lawn chair; then there’s “nose hole”, one of his favourite things on himself or anyone; and the other day [...]

Here are a couple of clips. They demonstrate the love of BOOM. Check them out and see whom YOU think is the Boom King. This one works best when there are pillows or even a drum to boom on… but in a pinch, just use whatever’s handy. Related Posts:Mommy’s in the DoghouseFour Months OldHappy New [...]

That’s TWICE I’ve gone gallivanting to the movies in as many weeks!! What is the world coming to? My hubby and I were going to see Inception, but circumstances prevented it. If we were to go to the movies again sometime soon (can you imagine??), that would be why. Meanwhile, Sean was pretty stoked to [...]

Here we are at our 20th Baby Bits already! (Hope you don’t mind my use of bullets in practically every post… I love them so.) E is still a Baby – he said so. Daddy asked him this morning, “Who’s a cutie-pie?” and he tapped his own chest and said, “Baby.” (He also apparently knows [...]

Rotten Tomatoes is not so hot on the new film Dinner for Schmucks. Skye and I went to see it anyway. Here are thirteen thoughts about it. Adaptation of 1998 French film “Le dîner des cons”, ergo pretty zany. I do not recall anyone in the film actually using the word schmuck. There were lines [...]

It’s time for some Bits. E has a joke. It involves putting random things on his head and saying “Hat.” Lately he’s getting especially silly and putting multiple “hats” on Mama or Daddy at once. Latest example is an aluminum pie plate AND a plastic octopus… what a stylish combo! His vocabulary is growing at [...]
