I'm just letting my kids grow up to be thankless little bastards because it is easier that way.

Ten hours of sleep at once. You must bounce off the walls all day long.

2010-01-13T07:52:55.304-08:00

Too funny.

And thanks for reminding me about thank you notes. We still have to do those for Christmas (and Hanaukkah) right in time for Bunny's B-day. Did these all have to fall less than 30 days apart?

Can I sign Tommy up for your baby sleep bootcamp?

2010-01-12T13:38:38.358-08:00

Oh, the thank you notes...that goes something like this with my Kindergartener. T. Yes, the line with another line on top. T. Ok, now H. No, right next to the T. Sort of like this. Good. Now A. Like in your name, you know how to write an A. You didn't have to erase that, it looked fine. Are you ready for the next letter? N. No, that's backwards, try again. N. Yup, keep going, you've got it. N. Ok, now K, like in Mommy's name. K, like this. It's ok, just write it on the next line if you don't have room.

You get the idea... Our thank you cards for her October birthday were sent out just last week.

2010-01-12T13:07:53.734-08:00

I can't believe you were able to do cribs for so long! I wish ;) My kids were escape artists. It was either a toddler bed or surely a trip to the ER. I've been taking a little break too.

2010-01-12T11:58:54.217-08:00

heh. I love this post. So true.

and see? I told you the toddler beds would work out. Your children are just geniuses and you didn't take my word for it.

and, writing all that shit down is too much work. Seriously, I'd just have an envelope every month for coffee and take it out of there and not write it down. Then when you run out, sell some stuff on eBay and stuff more money in there.

2010-01-11T20:02:52.923-08:00

I totally forgot about thank you notes.

I mean for YEARS now.

Shit.

ps. Great post.

2010-01-11T16:54:05.169-08:00

Even your lists are funny and beautifully written. We have a "budget" too and it took me a long time to get used to it, but it's been years now and it was seriously one of the best things that we ever did for our financial well-being : ).

2010-01-11T14:38:09.964-08:00

Who says you can't have tequila (and margarita mix)at 7:00 a.m.? :)

2010-01-11T07:08:11.253-08:00

The zits...oh, my, the zits! They pop up more now than they did when I was 15 and being in my 40s seemed impossible and old!

Did the tequila and mixer go on the new budget? Maybe this is why we don't have a budget in my house. ;)

I just happened to find your blog via Sprite's Keeper. Love your sense of humor and your mommy advice/tidbits, which will come in handy when our first baby arrives in March. FOLLOW!

2010-01-10T18:35:49.434-08:00

Did you cave in and just scribble some random colors on the cards yourself? Heehee!

Did you ever find the tin foil?

2010-01-10T17:36:33.208-08:00

You crack me up... roll with it all (easier said than done as I cried carrying a crib into the attic this evening). Seasons of life, I suppose. Will the rest be as exhilarating? More or less exhausting? We'll see, I suppose, but with all luck, just as joyous. Loved the post. Take care.

2010-01-10T05:51:56.285-08:00

I like to think that tin foil is a healthy way to injest some much needed minerals.

2010-01-09T20:28:31.541-08:00

Wait... sorry... but I'm still stuck on... coffee causes ACNE? Seriously??!?!!!! So THAT'S my problem. Ah, well, y'all better start calling me Pizza Face now. I can live with that.

2010-01-09T19:23:07.239-08:00

I'm sorry but I'm still stuck giggling over the idea of three small children attempting to sleep in one bedroom. It's much better than focusing on my jealousy over the 10 hours of consecutive sleep. MUCH better.

2010-01-09T18:45:27.588-08:00

I think this is my Favorite. Post. Ever.

I seriously feel like I READ the posts you "should have written" somehow. How does that work??

Seriously funny post. Does that count for serious? :)

2010-01-09T18:36:57.736-08:00

Oh my god, PLEASE tell me how you keep your kids in toddler beds? We're on day six of doing the Super Nanny, walk back to bed thing for bedtime and naps and Graham fights us for over an hour every time. Twice a day. He's lucky to be alive.

2010-01-09T18:08:54.813-08:00

I'm in awe of your ten hours. My guy is 13 mo and STILL DOES NOT SLEEP THRU THE NIGHT. I know, get some balls and let him CIO... I did it with the twins, but for some reason this guys melts all my resolve. Pitiful.

Great post... I like the funny ones better anyway, if you want my humble opinion.

2010-01-09T16:55:14.929-08:00

Ten hours? That's miraculous and awesome. You count as super mom for sure. Now THAT is a Happy New Year present worth having.

2010-01-09T16:31:21.041-08:00

I'm 54, am post menopausal, and got a zit the other day. wtf? oh, and awesome that you had your kids write thank you notes. My mother always made us write them for our gifts, we hated hated hated writing them, but I am really glad that she pounded the need for thank you notes into my brain.

2010-01-09T15:23:11.529-08:00

I love so many of these and I'm not going to tell you which one is my favorite. Well, maybe for your birthday, but not one second before.

They're all fantastic reasons for not writing a post, slacker.

2010-01-09T15:09:23.042-08:00

Sleep = good.

Budgets = bad.

Only 1 crib = very good.

Alcohol fueled, unprotected lovin' = very bad.
