Meet Our New Family Pets! Last summer, Princess Roundhead and Chubs made us that deal that if we got them hermit crabs then we didn’t have to get them American Girl Dolls. We fell for it, got them their crabs and then we ended up at the stupid American Girl Doll Store anyway to spend […]

On Wednesdays, We Wear Pink
June 03, 2019On Wednesday’s We Wear Pink Like so many other mothers of girls, I do not look forward to the teen years. I can’t believe my girls are going to endure the really crappy teen nonsense and there is nothing I can do about it. I encourage all the camaraderie they have with their girlfriends now, […]

Someone Jizzed on Santa
May 31, 2019Someone Jizzed on Santa Now that we no longer have Summer Nanny, we have to parent our own children. It’s not so bad because we “text-in-sick” way less than Summer Nanny. I tried to text-in-sick once, but Real Estate Dad didn’t buy it when I said that the mockingbirds in Glover Park formed a gang […]
