PB&J In a Bowl: Another Failed Attempt
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/05/another-failed-attempt.html
Monday, May 4, 2009. We sat down to eat dinner with my parents. I had made potato soup with French bread. I explained to Maddie that we were going to follow her doctor's advice about her pickiness. Dr. Hyperenoughtobefiveherself told us that the "one bite, no thank you" rule works well. Basically, Maddie has to eat one bite of whatever it is that she doesn't want and if she doesn't like it, fine. She can eat something else. She smelled of it. And refused. I told her to eat it.

PB&J In a Bowl: Harriet Potter and the Yard Full of Leaves
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/11/harriet-potter-and-yard-full-of-leaves.html
Thursday, November 19, 2009. Harriet Potter and the Yard Full of Leaves. This summer became the summer of Harry Potter. My mom introduced Maddie to him and well, she fell in love. She talked about him and the other characters like they were a part of our family. She wanted to watch all of the movies, over and over again. She even pronounced his name with a British accent. We talked to her about the difference between fiction and non-fiction, and she understood from the start that it wasn't real. A while ...

PB&J In a Bowl: The Scariest Moment
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/11/scariest-moment.html
Monday, November 16, 2009. When Maddie was two, she started snoring. Loud. Lumberjack snores. She was louder when she slept than she was when she was awake- okay, that may be stretching it a little, but not by much. By the time she was four, she could compete with anyone over the age of 60. In fact, last Thanksgiving, when everyone blamed my mother-in -law for keeping them awake with her snoring, I let her take the blame, even though I knew it was Maddie. The second, third, fourth, and fifth time I quest...

PB&J In a Bowl: The Last Supper- 5 Year Old Style
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/04/last-supper-5-year-old-style.html
Thursday, April 9, 2009. The Last Supper- 5 Year Old Style. Most of the time Maddie understands Bible stories as well as she does the concept of Cinderella. Basically, she hears the story and believes with all of her heart that it is true. And I love that faith. Last week, Maddie's school started telling the story of Easter, bit by bit. Guess what, Mommy.". Ummm you didn't have to go to the sad bear chair.". Insert sigh of disgust from her. No I didn't. We learned a really cool Bible story.". I gave her ...

PB&J In a Bowl: Short Term Relationship
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/04/short-term-relationship.html
Wednesday, April 22, 2009. Maddie made a new friend yesterday. His name was Casey. She was very excited about meeting him and wanted to show him off to everyone. She made him a sign. Complete with hearts and "I love you Casey.". She invited him to dinner. But I ruined it when I told her that he wasn't allowed to come. She stayed on our deck with him while I cooked. But she informed me every few minutes of the new accomplishments Casey achieved. Casey just smiled at me! Casey is sooooo coooool! I would lo...

PB&J In a Bowl: It's A Strange World
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2011/01/its-strange-world.html
Thursday, January 6, 2011. It's A Strange World. I'll admit that in the past year, I've found myself caught up in the vampire stuff. And by being "caught up in . . . " I don't mean that I don fangs and drink blood. I just mean I like to be entertained by them. And Bill or Eric. I like them. And I can't help but let my imagination run wild. Are there really vampires? I doubt it. Do regular people have certain powers and can read my mind? I'm not sure, but I try to not think bad things, just in case. He at...

PB&J In a Bowl: I'm Back
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2011/01/im-back.html
Wednesday, January 5, 2011. Yesterday, I was thinking to myself about this blog and how I haven't written in a couple of months and that I miss it. So, I pulled it up and HOLY CRAP- it's been over a year since I've written. How did that happen? Why did I let that happen? I Don't. Know. But, as I read some of my past posts, I remembered how much I loved sharing my stories and thoughts with you. See you tomorrow- we've got a lot of catching up to do. Posted by pb&j in a bowl.

PB&J In a Bowl: The Game
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/04/game.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. Maddie's first softball game was on Saturday. She showed no pre-game jitters. And looked so tiny next to the other girls. And even though she could barely see, she went 3 for 3. A way too big uniform can't stop my Pink Panther. Even when her shorts fell to her knees when she was running from 1st to 2nd, she just kept going. It's going to be an interesting season. Posted by pb&j in a bowl. Way to go Maddie!

PB&J In a Bowl: A Freak Accident
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/11/freak-accident.html
Tuesday, November 17, 2009. I have this friend that I adore named Sujette. She is older than me by about 30 years, but that has never seemed to matter. She is that person so filled with. That you can't help but smile. Not long ago, they decided to take a quick trip to Hawaii to use up their airline miles. On their last day, after they had checked out of the hotel and loaded up their rental car, they headed out. Sujette and Jim decided to take one last walk on the beach before catching their plane. Jim is...

PB&J In a Bowl: Hello- Anybody There?
http://pbjinabowl.blogspot.com/2009/11/hello-anybody-there.html
Friday, November 13, 2009. I'm the blogger who decided to take a week off from blogging. That one week turned into two weeks, which turned into a month. SIX months later. . . Don't get me wrong. I've had LOTS of stuff to write about. And, I've wanted to write about them. Like the two hellacious weeks that involved Maddie having minor surgery, projectile vomitting blood, and lots of ice cream. And how I spent Maddie's first day of Kindergarten. And how Maddie has done in. Posted by pb&j in a bowl. I am 32...
