This week, my 27, almost 28 month old has begun correcting my driving. He (fairly randomly although sometimes perhaps accurately) has been shouting out "Slow Down, Mommy!

Life Post-Doctorate: Tide Pools
http://underpaidphd.blogspot.com/2010/03/tide-pools.html
Wednesday, March 24, 2010. After exploring the tide pools for a few minutes and showing B all the hermit crabs, I went back up to the beach and collected just a few shells. B joined me and noticed that there were quite a few broken pieces of the type of shell that the hermit crabs live in. So he started collecting those. All in all, a good day.

Life Post-Doctorate: "Rock A Baby"
http://underpaidphd.blogspot.com/2010/03/rock-baby.html
Monday, March 22, 2010. Since B was born, I have always sung either "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" or the "ABCs" to calm him down and help him fall asleep. I don't know very many lullabies at all (obviously). Last summer I traveled back to where I grew up and it was my first time alone with B in a long time. GH normally helps extensively with B's night time routine and sings him several songs in Spanish. Here is our version:. Rock a bye baby, on a treetop. When the wind blows, the cradle will rock. We ar...

Tuesday, March 03, 2009. It seems I am under a bad star or something this week. I know it could always be worse, but I have been having the craziest accidents. First, our upstairs hallway is pretty crowded-I have our loveseat there right now that used to be in B's room. When we got him a ball pit for his first birthday, there was no room for both, so out it went! I made it through the rest of the day, but oh my, if I moved them even slightly the shooting pain was terrible! Thank God, neither of us were i...

Sunday, January 31, 2010. B has been using adjectives much more the past couple of weeks. He says things like "Big red fire truck! And "Little trashy truck" "Big yellow bullzaturner". He's also started saying "and" sometimes, like when we are reading he will say "the cat -and- the dog -and- the chicken" It is just really cute to me the way he pauses before and after the "and's". I just wanted to record these before I forget. Saturday, January 30, 2010. Go, Dog, Go! Sleep, Dog, Sleep? This schedule has ad...

Sunday, November 29, 2009. We spent the time with family in a small town. The fall colors were absolutely stunning! Thursday, November 05, 2009. It has been a while since I've written anything. Just busy with the usual stuff. Well, Halloween was fantastic; we trick or treated the night before, at the Aquarium. My parents were in town which was really nice. Then B turned TWO this week! Sometimes we can tell. But mostly he is fairly low-maintenance and easy-going. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). B = [our] baby.

Wednesday, August 05, 2009. So, this morning, B was playing with a bouncy blue ball and it kept going under tables, etc. When he couldn't reach it, he yelled out "I need ball! A couple of times it even sounded like "I need a. He also says "I got it! And "I'll be back." (he was born in California under Schwarzenegger's governorship.)]. Needless to say, none of us were in the cheeriest moods at the breakfast table. ;). UGH I am so tired and it is only Wednesday. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What I Post About.

Sunday, March 20, 2011. I realize that it's been about a year since I wrote anything. Not much has changed. Then, a lot has changed. We moved across the country, so no more tide pool pics. :(. I recently had another miscarriage. I am doing weekly acupuncture sessions to work on that issue. I really like it so far. Other than that we have just been settling in to our new home and adjusting to the weather here. The summers are much hotter and the winters much colder than we were used to. What I Post About.
