Whoever invented spring break did not have kids. Or else they had some fancy second home on a tropical island and a private jet to whisk them off to it. Or the courage to brave Disneyland during a holiday. As I have none of the above, and Siigo just returned from a 10-day trip (yeah, [...]

Sorry for my long absence. I am sure your days were consumed with longing for an updated post from Mountain Momma. But as usual, I have an excuse – I’ve been engrossed in the book “Essential Exercises for the Childbearing Year.” My midwife recommended it to me after I told her I wanted to try [...]
There is an evil elf living in my living room who hates me. I swear.

There is a remote control elf in our house. I am totally convinced of it. How else do you explain the fact that our clicker is constantly disappearing? One minute the remote will be resting nicely on the coffee table, and the next, it’s gone. I swear, there is a little ogre in our living [...]

After successfully travelling overseas for one week with children in tow, I’m not sure where to begin. All I can think about is: “Wow, we’re really doing it. And it’s not so bad.” The 18 hours it took to get to Dublin, Ireland were not too painful. The kids were very excited to change into [...]
Are you happy to see me, or is it just your yogurt?

I got hit on Thursday night. Mind you it was by a guy so drunk he was spilling his beer on my lap more than slipping me cheesy come-on lines. But all the same, someone tried to hit on me. This just doesn’t happen anymore. It kind of gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside, [...]

Meet our cat Cozmo. Poor Cozmo. She’s had better days. Two weeks ago she underwent surgery. First was the dental surgery – she had already lost 70% of her teeth. We’d even find them on the kitchen floor. The vet informed us that the rest of her teeth were rotting and her gums infected. To [...]
Burittos, kitty cats and 3-year olds, oh my! Or, how to get your husband to go to the doctor
Posted in Peaks & Valleys, tagged dentist, getting men to go to the doctor, haz-mat suit, killer kitty cats, men when they are hurt on January 10, 2010 | 3 Comments »
Poor Siigo had a rough day yesterday. He got royally beat up by, in order, a 3-year old, a burrito and a kitty-cat. He was already in bad shape. In Mexico, he got dragged over some rocks by a huge wave, scraping his legs and arms and injuring his shoulder. Not to mention he got a royal talking-to [...]

Rather than making you all feel bad that you are not in sunny Puerto Vallarta sipping margaritas by my side, I’ll make you feel bad that you are not in sunny Puerto Vallarta while everyone else sips Coronas and margaritas while preggo you enjoys your bottled water and stealing sips off your kids’ cherry lemonade.
