the monkey house: March 2012
http://imike001.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 25, 2012. Meeting the New Elephants at the Zoo. Neighbors were at the zoo too. Feeding the giraffes was one of the highlights of the trip. But we were really all about the new elephant family at our city's zoo. There are five of them, including a 1-year-old and a 5-year-old sister and brother. Kaylee and dad with the papa of the elephant herd. He weighs 10,500 pounds! Time to get funky y'all. Getting ready for the Cha Cha Slide. Doing the Cha Cha. Monday, March 05, 2012. Ow My belly hurts.

the monkey house: Star Wars Birthday Party
http://imike001.blogspot.com/2012/07/star-wars-birthday-parthy.html
Monday, July 09, 2012. Star Wars Birthday Party. Kaylee's friend had a birthday party with a Star Wars theme. It was awesome. I wish I had taken pictures of the invitations. They were based on the opening title sequence from the original Star Wars. Kaylee and friends were invited to attend Jedi Training. Foam pool toys were lightsabers. Padawans trained with their light sabers by popping bubbles . . . So they could later defeat Darth Vader (as a piñata) in battle. Or Darth. Whatever.

the monkey house: Wedding weekend
http://imike001.blogspot.com/2012/07/wedding-weekend.html
Monday, July 23, 2012. One of my favorite photos of K was taken upstairs at the chapel waiting for the wedding to start. She and her cousins were pretending to do ballet in their slippers and flower girl dresses. This slightly blurry shot of Izzy showed the sweetest expression on her face, so I decided to post it. Erin made fabulous mustache cufflinks for all the men in the wedding party. They were awesome! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Other things of interest. The Kaylee video archive.

the monkey house: April 2012
http://imike001.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 19, 2012. Once upon a time . Its Fairy Tale Week at school — an heres the kids take on it all. Bonus points for porage. Based on the spelling you know she came up with that herself. Either that or school needs to spend more money on books of higher quality for her to copy from. And yes, Lumpy should be capitalized as it is a brand-name porridge. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

the monkey house: Scenes from a comic con
http://imike001.blogspot.com/2012/05/scenes-from-comic-con.html
Saturday, May 26, 2012. Scenes from a comic con. This mermaid got K's attention by shooting her with a squirt gun. And then let her choose a treasure from her chest. Her other chest. Pervert. Also known as" no one can resist a cute little girl asking if they can take a picture with her.". To get her photo taken with the big scary "I'm going to eat your face alien. She's a dork by osmosis. And dad couldn't be prouder. K sought out the Preadator. She's come a long way from being scared of stormtroopers.

Alice in Chicagoland: December 2008
http://bbathje.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
I'm Up At 2AM Because. I'm getting my butt kicked by KILLER acid reflux from the tuna salad I had for dinner. Tuna salad - REALLY? At least I'm not up because Alice is "crying" and screaming for no reason. So It's Been 21 Weeks. And I've hardly mentioned this pregnancy! That I was absolutely sure I was getting whacked by the baby. I swear the little stinker didn't stop moving the whole time we were in the movie theater! Kind of movement yet. Hands up by the face. Happy Holidays - Part 3. This weekend was...

maggie's world: June 2015
http://visitmaggiesworld.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2015. When the past rushes up to meet you. I was talking with a friend on Saturday, and she was struggling with her daughter's plans for the day. Courtney, the daughter, is 12, and she was attending her first boy/girl party. A day of swimming and an evening of bonfire, co-ed. My friend was nervous about her little girl growing up, and how her relationships would take shape. I'm here to reflect. Or hide and seek across several backyards. Or freeze tag on the Naperville riverwalk....Which...

maggie's world: On heavy things and putting them down
http://visitmaggiesworld.blogspot.com/2015/08/on-heavy-things-and-putting-them-down.html
Friday, August 14, 2015. On heavy things and putting them down. Sometimes, you don't realize you've been in a downward spiral. You may seem pretty content, and feel like you're making progress. But if you're carrying anger and resentment, it's entirely possible that you aren't being honest with yourself, and that it's time to set down the baggage. Really, guys. That stuff gets heavy. A lot of it (surprise, surprise) boiled down to one thing. Money. That has something to do with a lightness I feel inside&...
