L.A. Toddler watched daddy as he was painting the bathroom. She sighed and said, “Ooohhh, I like your painting Daddy.  It’s really good.”

You can read about LA Daddy’s painting here (note - the painting isn’t done yet! Ha!) But I did think it was cute that she hasn’t figured the difference between “interior” painting and […]

“First I was afraid, I was petrified…”
Yes, I did it. I survived LA Toddler’s first sleepover. Yes, you heard me - she’s 3 and had a friend sleep over on Saturday night. A boy friend. Her best friend (the Cute Boy mentioned in previous posts) came over at dinner time and stayed […]

Me, too!!! No sonogram on Saturday - but… we did get to hear the heartbeat. And it’s very healthy sounding - yay!
Unfortunately we’re all going to have to practice a lot of patience until June 11th when I get the hardcore ultrasound where they check organ development and all that. […]

I decided to check out the Aquamom class at my local YMCA.  What a blast!  I met […]

Happy Mother’s Day to all you Moms and Moms-to-be!
It’s with mixed emotions that I write this post today.
It’s my 3rd mother’s day and each year LA Toddler’s teachers have arranged a thoughtful event and absolutely cherished keepsake for my little one to give to me.  This year her class made ‘dinner’ for us on Friday. […]

Ah, the life of a toddler…  Last night, I’m sitting in front of the TV waiting patiently for Desperate Housewives to start (having just put L.A. Toddler to bed for the second time.) And I’m feeling pretty confident that I’ll be able to watch my show uninterrupted, when — what do you know? We hear […]

My husband is a manly man. Of course, this is part of the reason I married him. I’m not into dainty men who I can “out-man” around the house. Ya know what I mean? Anyway, he fixes things around the house, does all the heavy lifting and most importantly kills bugs when L.A. Toddler […]
