Or just a family that likes to cook? I am proud of the fact that we have more cooking tools than baby toys, especially because cooking implements will last about a thousand times longer and because roasting pans make perfecty good swimming pools when you are unprepeared for 85 degree weather in February.

The kid’s second pearly-white has made an appearance! This means, however, that teething-part-2 has coincided perfectly with sleep-training-round-3 so, we’ll be heading into sleep-training-round-4 probably later this week when the symptoms die down a bit. This kid just keeps coming up with ways to get out of sleep-training – even if it means entering into [...]
I imagine it’s because it just happened and I have yet to get perspective and find some piece of humor yet, but, I am having a really hard time writing about the fact that half of our son’s face is dotted with scabby, dried blood and his left eye is still swollen. THAT BASTARD CAT [...]

Which is good because the baby-sized hamster wheel we’ve been making him run in all night was really not going with decor of the living room. He also only [...]
Dear Harrison, Happy .75 birthday! This is a biggie. 9 months! You have now been moving around on this earth for about the same amount of time OUTSIDE, with all of us air-breathers, as you were INSIDE my belly. The last nine months seem to have flown by but, at the same time because so [...]
My very favorite food, as I’ve mentioned many times previously, is PHO – more specifically, Pho Tai (rare steak). I add all the basil I can, squeeze of lime, two servings of bean sprouts because Marc doesn’t care for them, Sriracha and chili paste to the the magical beef broth. The adding of condiments is [...]
I’ll just be sitting in the office, minding my own business when a little hell-on-wheels will tear into the office with a smile as big as the list of things I have to do. But, there is nothing on that list that can keep me from jumping out of my chair onto the floor to [...]
