Canadian Bacon Bit: September 2009
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Being the New Kid. I was really fortunate growing up: I lived in the same small town from kindergarten to high school. I even stayed in the same school Kindergarten through Grade 8! Being the new kid was never something I had I to experience. Even moving to, literally, another country to attend grad school, I had a built in group of friends. There were only 40 of us and we were going to spend half of our waking hours together: how could we not be friends? I have been choosy w...

Canadian Bacon Bit: January 2010
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 5, 2010. And then there were four. So, what have you been up to? Not much -just kinda busy with the holidays. Oh, where did you go? Well, we went to my in-laws for what was supposed to be a week, but then we got snowed in for another two days. Twenty four inches of snow in twenty four hours does that to you. Was it a good trip? On the flight back they lost all. Of our luggage, including Chloe's car seat, plus we were late getting in AND my dad was already at our house. Your dad was down?

Canadian Bacon Bit: December 2009
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 12, 2009. That's a Daddy Question. There are numerous reasons why I love being married to my husband. He is kind, he is funny, and most of all, he is an active partner in parenting. I was particularly grateful this morning. While I was getting Caleb dressed, he kept pulling at his underwear. What are you doing, Buddy? I'm trying to put my hand in my pocket.". That's not a pocket Bud.". Go ask your father.". Thursday, December 10, 2009. I have a new man in my life. Let me rephrase that.

Canadian Bacon Bit: July 2009
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 23, 2009. Gunka and his girl. GQ, here I come. The many faces of Ms. Chloe. Ms Curious strikes again! Tuesday, July 14, 2009. A quick story about Caleb and his Sanka:. Many months ago I purchased a "back-up" Sanka for Caleb. It was going to be used in the event that Sanka went missing or became too disgusting to have around any longer (I mean, we wash him.) I hid the back-up at the top of my closet and left him there. Not a problem, I'll get the back-up! Sanka doesn't go to daycare anymore.

Canadian Bacon Bit: On Parenthood
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2010/08/on-parenthood.html
Saturday, August 14, 2010. We have officially been living in our house for two years now. And FINALLY, I feel like we are making some friends. There are two sets of parents who have little ones Caleb's age whom we have become closer with. Close enough to count them as our emergency contacts for daycare. Close enough to call up for an impromptu dinner or playdate. And it's nice. Really nice. But it's not the same as having a good girlfriend. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Canadian Bacon Bit: Hollywood makes it look easy.
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2011/01/hollywood-makes-it-look-easy.html
Sunday, January 16, 2011. Hollywood makes it look easy. When I pictured my life with kids, I had an idyllic sense of what my life would be like:. And then I would finish whatever minor things needed to be done around the house, like the dinner dishes. I would crawl into my own bed, and fall into a deep, uninterrupted sleep. Reality has a way of kicking you in the butt and then taunting you while you're down. The kids squabble. With each other. With the animals. With us. My kitchen is consistently dirty.

Canadian Bacon Bit: Calebisms
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2010/04/calebisms.html
Wednesday, April 21, 2010. There are many joys to having a three year old - there are the constant mood swings, the temper tantrums that are punctuated with moments of sanity and reason, and the verbal diarrhea. Mostly the verbal diarrhea. Sitting at dinner tonight Caleb was talking non-stop nonsense. I looked at him and said "You're crazy.". No, I'm three! He also gets on these tangents whenever he sees Chloe doing something. "When I was little I (. Insert whatever Chloe is currently doing. Fabulous....

Canadian Bacon Bit: I'm trying not to over analyze...
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2011/01/im-trying-not-to-over-analyze.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. I'm trying not to over analyze. I have a problem. I have a problem elbow. I've been suffering (and I don't use that term lightly) from lateral epicondylitis. Aka tennis elbow, for 17 months now. And it isn't getting better. At the beginning, I was able to control my symptoms with ice and anti-inflammatory drugs. There was one particularly bad bout in November of 2009 that I opted to use ultrasound and iontophoresis. And it resolved. I mean,. Patients and that aggravated.

Canadian Bacon Bit: August 2010
http://cdnbaconbit.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 26, 2010. Looking back, the majority of posts lately have been about Caleb and how I am adjusting to parenting a toddler, now preschooler. But there is another very important little one at our house: my girl. Chloe is chill. She takes everything in stride. Brother beating her over the head with a car? A quick yell, and she moves away from him. Mean mommy takes away the markers she is trying to eat? Stomps her feet a couple of times and finds something else to play with. And she loves.
