Chinbilla: A Mother's Dilemma
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2010/08/mothers-dilemma.html
Sunday, August 15, 2010. A few weeks ago, as I came down the stairs I noticed the the wood below the banister was in much need of a good dusting. So, I made a mental note, and like many mothers of small children, I immediately forgot. Last week on my house cleaning day it dawned on me. Hey, go dust upstairs. Oh, who am I kidding. This is the age of digital images. Time to take a picture, and clean the dust! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). It's all about the Art (Evy's Blog). Uhl Blog (Andy and Kara).

Chinbilla: November 2009
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 17, 2009. Make believe land is where our home is all day, every day, these days. Today, instead of going to the jungle to fight "the bad guys" , the following quests were given:. Go into the jungle (our back yard) and recover a lost bucket. Then return to Mommy (in the sunroom) for the reward. Return to the jungle to collect five leaves. Then return to Mommy for the reward. Once more, go into the jungle and collect a fallen tree branch. The return to Mommy for the reward.

Chinbilla: August 2010

Sunday, August 22, 2010. A Diaper-Free House is on the Horizon. I can see it. At first it was like a mirage shimmering in the distance. A house free of diapers. The expense, the stench, the battle, all gone. One morning about two weeks ago, my 21 month old son dragged the training toilet into the living room where his sister and I were watching an episode of Curious George, and said, "Poop! Since I'm a fly by the seat of your pants kind of girl, I thought why not. Wednesday, August 18, 2010. After much g...

Chinbilla: April 2010
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 25, 2010. New Skates and a New Do. As it turns out, both Catherine and I are highly motivated by sticker charts. She has been asking us for skates since winter. Finally with nice weather, and good behavior it seemed to be the right time. She is doing pretty well with them, too. Better than I expected. While shopping for the skates, we saw that there was a salon that cut kids hair for a good price, so Chase got his second, and much needed hair cut. Saturday, April 24, 2010. Mom: No, she can't.

Chinbilla: May 2010
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 24, 2010. Dinosaurs, Termites, and Exotic Cuisine. One of our favorite places to visit is the Durham Museum of Life and Science. On the dinosaur trail. The second trip was to check out the Butterfly Bash. We stopped by after dance class, having no idea what the Butterfly Bash actually was, to be completely surprised by all the fun. Upon entrance, members had a choice of gift between a cute bottle of bubbles with a butterfly on top and a lollipop with a mealworm. Yes, she did eat it. Loops his...

Chinbilla: December 2009
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 30, 2009. It occurred to me as I was making the train post, that a birthday post was never made. Man has this mom been shirking! Chase celebrated his first birthday on November 15th with a low key party at home with his NC family. There were balloons, music, presents and of course, cake. The most notable event of the evening was the striptease the birthday boy preformed. The evening started out in an out fit nice enough. Shortly after, it was decided that the shirt had to go.

Chinbilla: March 2010
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 31, 2010. On our recent trip up north to visit my parents, my dad and his wife took us to the Newport Aquarium. Where we had a blast and had many firsts. We saw piranhas for the first time. They were not a big hit. We saw penguins for the first time. They were a big hit. We saw jelly fish. Oh my, they were a huge hit. Catherine had her face painted for the first time. Enormous hit. Can you guess what she chose? Note the butterfly shirt is a necessity, also. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. After...

Chinbilla: October 2009
http://chinbilla.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 19, 2009. We have another walker! It is official, Chase can walk! Yesterday Catherine, Chase, and Mommy hit the mall to get a pair of Pedipeds. To celebrate the occasion. For a few weeks now he has been flirting with the idea of walking, and over the weekend realized that he could indeed just let go to run after his sister. Pictures and videos to come, if one can actually be captured! Thursday, October 08, 2009. Nice Mommy, maybe. Guess I must be getting better at my job! Nice Mommy, maybe.

Saturday, June 26, 2010. While intently watching an episode of Alias, Chase exclaimed, Uh oh! Immediately following an explosion. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). It's all about the Art (Evy's Blog).
