La Chambre d'Orchidee: #100
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2009/01/100.html
Wow 100 posts. I believe the tradition is to write 100 random things about yourself. I had a hard time writing 6 random things about myself so, um, we'll see how this goes. 1 My name is not Collette. 2 It is Stacie. 3 My mom wanted to name me Anastacia. 4 My dad wouldn't let her. 5 They also considered Jennifer. 6 But didn't want to be the 4 J's. 7 My husband's name is not Raoul. 8 It is Joe. 9 Josef, actually. 10 I do call my kids the Tweedles at home. 11 But their friends call them Payton. 44 I got my ...

La Chambre d'Orchidee: February 2009
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
I can't believe how much Payton has grown over the last six months. In August, just before school started, I went school shopping. I bought her 3 pairs of jeans, several pairs of shoes, and ballet shoes. The jeans were way too big. Thankfully, most kids jeans have that wonderful adjustable waistband so I cinched it as tight as I could and rolled up the cuffs. Oh holy hell the shoes! Links to this post. Anyway, it wasn't that long ago that we we having adult meals and adult conversation. On glass plat...

La Chambre d'Orchidee: Come on people!
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2009/05/come-on-people.html
Why is it if you are of child bearing age and you say to someone "I've been really tired lately" or "Man I have been dizzy today" or "These headaches are driving me crazy" people automatically assume you are pregnant? And they ask "Are you pregnant? All excited like you are going to blush and say yes. Seriously, just because I am 29 and could probably conceive a child if I tried hard enough is the only possible explanation that Joe went and knocked me up? I am just tired. Yes I went to bed at 8:15 la...

La Chambre d'Orchidee: Oh Payton
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2009/05/oh-payton.html
The scene: The four of us are in the car on the way home from Joe's birthday dinner* as we pass a construction site. Payton: What is that big blue thing over there? Me: That is a porta potty. Payton: Ewww (giggle, giggle). That's gross. Me: It would be great for you though because you would never have to flush again.*. Payton: (giggle, giggle). Oh! Joe: Payton that is twisted. You have a twisted mind little girl. Payton (giggle, giggle). For the next 7 days you are officially older than me! Looking for a...

Me: Hey babe, what did you use to clean the puke up. Me: Oh really, huh.did you pour is out of the spray bottle? Joe: No, I used Oxy Clean. Me: Then why is it blue? Me: If you used Oxy clean why is the water blue? Where did you get the Oxy clean from? Joe: From under the kitchen sink. Me: You used plant food! Aka Caden....

La Chambre d'Orchidee: Home Depot here we come
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2009/05/home-depot-here-we-come.html
Home Depot here we come. The garage door broke. Had to pull the little string thing and manually close the door. Joe got home and it worked (of course, make me look like a complete dumbass who can't push a button). Time to get a new one. The dryer started making this odd scraping noise while Joe was cleaning up the washing machine piss. He got a screw driver and made the noise go away. This is not the first noise this machine has made in the last several months. Time to get a new one. 5/19/09, 4:44 PM.

La Chambre d'Orchidee: The Players
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2008/08/players.html
Who are the players in this blog you ask? Well, there are six of us. Lets start from the top. The rest of the Tweedle family is comprised of the cat and the dog whom we will call Fat Ass and Chicken. Fat Ass is our cat. She is a bitch. She only lets J and I touch her. Chicken is the dog. He is 80 pounds of black hair that is scared to death of Fat Ass. He sits on the floor whimpering whenever she walks by. That's it. Now that you know about me, tell me about you. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

La Chambre d'Orchidee: March 2009
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sigh, time for bras again. Of course, as all you parents out there know, I also have to beg and plead with Caden to stay on task and GET YOUR SHOES ON! WHY DON'T YOU HAVE SOCKS ON! PLEASE PUT YOUR COAT ON! OH MY GOD WE ARE LATE! WHY AREN'T YOU LISTENING TO ME! We always manage to make it to school just as the teachers are calling the kids into the classroom. I didn't even have to change shirts! Life couldn't be better. Links to this post. Do you think the syrup will taste like poop? I lost it. I got ...

La Chambre d'Orchidee: December 2008
http://mommysorchids.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
That wonderful time of the year. Even I got spoiled this year. Raoul built me an office in the basement complete with a nice corner desk, built in shelves, and wood floors. He also bought me a new ski jacket and pants so I can hit the slopes this year. I haven't been on skis since I was in high school.imagine the blog post that will result! Who the hell knows what Raoul has planned but I am sure at least one squirrel will loose it's life. Links to this post. I'm a bad mama. I went upstairs to have a litt...
