Fifty Below Zero: May 2012
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 24, 2012. And You Thought I Was Loud. I don't hold a candle to this kid. She is just so damn loud, the video does not do it justice. It's obvious that she's been shushed a few times, yes? Good thing she's just the cutest thing ever. Thursday, May 3, 2012. A Little Addition to Yesterday's Post. What happens at school today? A real tornado warning, complete with sirens and 700 students in the hallway in the tuck-and-cover position for twenty minutes. Wednesday, May 2, 2012. I lock my door, tu...

Fifty Below Zero: January 2013
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 14, 2013. Your Greek Mythology Lesson from a Three-Year-Old. We have a new obsession in our house, and his name is "Hercules". Several months ago, Mitch brought home the Disney "Hercules" little golden book from Half Price Books and the girls started reading it. When shopping for Christmas, we found the movie and thought that the girls would like it. Like it would be an understatement. After a while, the two boxes that were to be the homes of all of the figures became Mount Olympus and th...

Fifty Below Zero: July 2012
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 30, 2012. I have never seen anyone so comfortable without a shirt on (except maybe teenage boys, or Matthew McConaughey) as my neighbor. Seriously, he walked around all day with black track shorts on (his normal weekend wear) and nothing else, watching the people who were installing his new siding. If he looked like Matthew McConaughey, maybe I wouldn't mind as much. Sidebar - I had to google Matthew McConaughey to learn how to spell his name. I think I've got it now. Wednesday, July 25, 2012.

Fifty Below Zero: March 2013
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 8, 2013. Tonight Gizmo and Mitch were playing wedding when Gizmo decided that Aladdin had a change of heart. He was supposed to marry Rapunzel instead of Jasmine. Here's how the conversation went:. Mitch: "Sorry, Aladdin already married Jasmine.". Gizmo (thinking, then with a laugh): "Oh Aladdin, you stop goofing with me! Stop fooling with me, Aladdin! It could have only been better if she said, "You quit fooling with Jasmine, Aladdin! Thursday, March 7, 2013. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Fifty Below Zero: November 2012
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 25, 2012. We here at Fifty Below Zero might have had one of the most perfect holiday weekends to date. We had a lovely Thanksgiving meal at Boston and Katie's house, where our children were well-behaved and enjoyed meeting Boston's parents, as well as playing with Mitch's side of the family. It was a relaxing, wine-filled day (with a nap for Gonzo at Katie's, too - bonus! We have a new visitor at our house until Christmas - Emma the Elf showed up the day after Thanksgiving on the mantle,...

Fifty Below Zero: New Year's Resolutions
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2013/01/new-years-resolutions.html
Sunday, January 6, 2013. Last year at this time I decided it would be a great idea to create a bunch of resolutions to make 2012 the Year Of Tina. (Mitch tries to call every year the Year of Tina, where I finally get my shit together, but last year was FINALLY going to be the year! I had to laugh as I thought about this, because here is what I had mapped out for myself:. April: I would love to be more organized with my coupon clipping. I will also be admiring my newer, skinnier self by this time....May: ...

Fifty Below Zero: September 2012
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 16, 2012. Getting Her Green Thumb Early. We planted carrots for the first time this year, an impulse by at the garden store last spring as Gizmo declared that was what she wanted to grow. We pulled the carrots this weekend, and while they are short because we planted them too close together, they are delicious! Gizmo loved eating them with the green tops still on! Friday, September 14, 2012. You Know the Kids Don't Miss Mommy When. I think she just likes practicing her words.

Fifty Below Zero: June 2012
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 27, 2012. Adventures in Cooking, Part Tres. My normally not-so-picky eater, Gizmo has of late decided she does not like vegetables. What's a mom to do to encourage healthy eating? Turn to Dora, of course. Today's treat: Backpack's Salad Bundles. In an effort to help her enjoy her veggies more, we went to the garden to pick the lettuce for the project, and after I got everything cleaned and prepped, we began the assembly. Following that bite, she immediately said, "Yum! Is this a phase?

Fifty Below Zero: February 2013
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 9, 2013. I know it's been a while.and I really have no great excuse, except that life is busy around Fifty Below Zero. But, as I sit here on a Saturday night with a glass of wine, I thought it was time to show off what we've been up to. Last month I took Gizmo into Minneapolis for her very first "theatre" experience - Sesame Street Live! To document the day, I thought we could take a cute mommy-daughter picture before we left. Gizmo was not so cooperative. But she had a great time and ...

Fifty Below Zero: December 2012
http://fiftybelowzero.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 24, 2012. The series of videos I have is from tonight, when the girls were dancing to "Linus and Lucy" (their new favorite Christmas song), and were overtired from short naps and a trip to church for Christmas eve service. Add in some sugar cookies for dinner, and you have these three (nearly failed) attempts to wish you all a Merry Christmas:. Saturday, December 15, 2012. And THIS is Why I Love My Husband. Where would we eat? How late would we stay out? I was completely overwhelmed with...
