Pooter Monkey: The bone marrow test I've been avoiding writing about
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2011/08/bone-marrow-test-ive-been-avoiding.html
Saturday, August 27, 2011. The bone marrow test I've been avoiding writing about. One of the things that put a damper on my blogging was not wanting to write about Nora's bone marrow test, even though everything turned out fine. So, let me write about it so that I can move on to more fun things. You are very good at hiding your fears from me, which I appreciate, and I try to hid mine from you. But if you ever need me to be right there scared with you and Rich, let me know. August 28, 2011 at 5:36 PM.

Pooter Monkey: February 2011
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 23, 2011. Butterfly Princess with a Hacking Cough. Sunday, February 13, 2011. Nora and I had a nice morning at the Museum Center a week or two ago, followed by a lunch date at Skyline- a typical combination, since a hot dog is pretty much the only bribe that can get her off the slide or away from the sandbox. Waiting for the balls to drop out of the ceiling. Making the dinosaurs kiss each other. On our way out, we discovered a ballerina. My girl has graduated from hot dogs to coneys.

Saturday, August 27, 2011. Easter was a big success. How could a candy free-for-all not be a big success? Seriously well drawn clues. Did you do them, Meg? August 28, 2011 at 5:40 PM. The three most complex, perspective-proportionate ones are by Rich. Mine are the more, shall we say, deconstructed ones. August 29, 2011 at 10:13 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Pooter Monkey: September 2010
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 30, 2010. Usually when I put on an enthusiastic voice to get Nora excited about something and I say, "Guess what we're doing tonight? Or, "Do you know who's coming over? Nora's first response is, "Bamama coming! Nora's happiness at spending an afternoon at the park with Bamama shines through in these photos. We got there just before dusk, and the late-summer light was positively buttery. Wednesday, September 15, 2010. Granddaddy, photographed by Nora. On Nora, I mean.). April '10: Fin...

Pooter Monkey: June 2010
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 17, 2010. This week in hematology. I was feeling pessimistic about this week's numbers, in part because last week's were just barely over the minimum to avoid hospitalization at 21,000, and in part because I had a dream that (like any responsible parent of a toddler) I shaved Nora's legs, and blood started seeping from all her little follicles. So, to cut to the chase, the nurse coordinator just called me to say Nora's numbers are up to 87,000 today! Monday, June 14, 2010. Why, yes, that i...

Pooter Monkey: October 2010
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 21, 2010. Save the drama for your mama. My daughter enjoys gazing at herself in the mirror while she cries. I love these moments when she seems to admit, with a sly smile and a laugh, that her crying is not always 100% authentic. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. It's too fit.". It doesn't fit; it's too small.". I wanna nice.". I want to be nice to (pet) the doggy.". I wanna self.". I want to do it by myself.". Tuesday, October 19, 2010. Last week, we said goodbye to my father's sister, Mary...

Pooter Monkey: Ballerina Birthday Party
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2011/04/ballerina-birthday-party.html
Sunday, April 3, 2011. Nora feeling very proud of her ballerina outfit before the party. Posing with one of her best friends, Olivia, who is adorable in her shy devotion to Nora. Enjoying some post-performance Skyline, just like the professional ballerinas do. Makes me want to take a movie of every moment of your life and Noras and Richs so we can go back in 41 years and enjoy it or marvel over it. I am so sorry we dont have movies of little Meg. Or little Rich. April 3, 2011 at 11:39 PM. We're all start...

Pooter Monkey: August 2011
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 28, 2011. A Sampling of Names of Nora's Imaginary Brothers and Sisters. The Baba Fairy (late May, early June 2011). Luckily, the Baba Fairy came along and solved the problem for us. So Rich and I brought up the Baba Fairy here and there for a week or two, and one day on a walk, Nora brought her up herself. "The Baba Fairy is going to bring me a present," she said. "Yes! I replied. "Should we wrap up your babas for her when we get home? Yup" And that was it. Florida Trip, May 2011. One of t...

Pooter Monkey: June 2011
http://pootermonkey.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Perfunctory Apology and Butterfly Show Photos. Oh dear. I've gotten quite behind on my blogging. I blame technology; now that I've become accustomed to checking emails and Facebook on my itouch (a hand-me-down from Rich after he got his iphone), booting up the laptop seems like a burden. Technology is making it so easy for me to be lazy. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Perfunctory Apology and Butterfly Show Photos. Nora's Vocabulary (newest to oldest). April '10: I love you (Pronounce...
