The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Thursday, May 31, 2007. Dear Jacob: May 2007. The things you're doing:. Getting up in the morning and going to your dresser, pulling out underwear, socks, pants and a shirt. Getting dressed all by yourself. You've been able to mostly do this for a long time, but now you can perfectly get that shirt over your head! I got a new job doing such-and-such. What do you think of that? Been more clingly than in the past...

The other day when me and Bob were at the construction, Wendy was on the way and we were jackhammering the hole already. Later in the day Wendy was back home digging out Bob's house.". Some of the sayings:. Anyway, 'Dear' is the patronizing word that Zach uses in response to my plees to get certain things done; as in "Yeeees. Jacob, please come pick these thi...

Murphy's Law: February 2007
http://xmas711.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Monday, February 26, 2007. How do I miss thee? Let me count the ways. How many times have I uttered the phrase, "I wish I had a video camera right now," in the last week? I can look through the viewfinder and. I am recording the precious, fleeting moments of Jacob's childhood. I was all about taking my time, saving up the money, doing it the old-fashioned way. That's the way I operate. Get this, I. You ask....

Murphy's Law: December 2006
http://xmas711.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Saturday, December 30, 2006. Lately we've been having a lot of them. First Stella left for the winter last month. Jacob is still asking why she had to leave and when will she be back? I think he's finally accepted it, even though he might not understand. He likes to talk about how she'll come back when the snow melts (what snow, right? A lot; quite well, I might add. It's nice to have friends you feel so 'a...

The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Saturday, March 31, 2007. Here's the progress that's been made in the two weeks since these pictures. Were taken. Slowly but surely. And a picture of Baby Tigger for good measure! Posted by xmas @ 10:12 AM. Friday, March 30, 2007. I am so glad she is back. Posted by xmas @ 11:13 AM.

Murphy's Law: June 2007
http://xmas711.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Saturday, June 30, 2007. Anyway, first stop: Rochester; graduation party. Although, I don't think we're going to make it there before the party is even over. Jacob is so stoked about the RV though. It doesn't matter where we end up, we'll have a great time just being away from home. Once we get on the road we'll figure out where the heck we're going. Well, what else can I say? I'll update as much as I can.

Murphy's Law: October 2006
http://xmas711.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Monday, October 30, 2006. Some hours later, after on and off sleep, Jacob was awake for good. We didn't know that for sure until 3 hours later when Zach finally gave up and took Jacob downstairs. A lot of the stuff we do for him at night might seem crazy, but you have to realize that on most nights now he does sleep through the night (define 'sleep through the night', right? I am happy to report that Zach did g...

The misadventures of a (formerly) young mom just trying to get through life one day at a time. Monday, April 30, 2007. Oh my God the peeing! Jacob wakes up this morning and we both want to snuggle so I move him toward me by pulling on the two double-layered blankets that I carefully folded beneath him last night, slowly revealing a huge wet spot. Give me a. Already. This has been happening for months now. It's all the way down there, it's not coming back out. Posted by xmas @ 7:27 AM. Leader of the Pack.
