Jack
Hippie Daycare, For the Win!
A couple of months ago, we moved the kids to a new daycare. We’d been having minor issues with our other daycare, really since Jack started going there, but the things just started really adding up and we decided it was time to stop trying to wait it out and make a change. We [...]
Day Care Blues…Part Deux
This week Jack began the transition to the next class in day care – the 13-23 month old class. I wrote this post about Mazzy’s move (or lack of) to the same class 2 1/2 years ago. With her, it was time; I was ready for her to move. But not so with Jack. [...]

And that Top Chef’s new season started this week, too? And that this season of Big Brother is actually pretty good? No? [...]
Deep Thoughts
1. I don’t feel as badly as I did the other day. So sorry for all that whining. 2. Jack is 100% mobile, crawling, pulling up, cruising. Right now he’s climbing onto the fireplace while I pretend not to notice because I’m typing on the computer and that’s waaay more important, right? 3. Jack has [...]
