A little late, but, better late than never.

I won't go into details why christmas sucked the big pudding. Suffice it to say that a sensitive mother needs support from her spouse – not the biggest grump-ass scrooge ever on christmas morning.
But. But! Dear ingrid internet the weaning has begun! Parker is sleeping in his sesame street cute as hell toddler bed.
ah elmo
At bedtime we talked about being a big boy and that big boys sleep in big boy beds and, most definitely, do not wake up every hour for booby. He seemed to agree. And i agreed.
this pictures just for me.
And, though my heart is breaking, this is what i need. I need sleep. But, it's hard to say goodbye to my last little baby and those special moments. It's going to take me awhile to get over this.

Story to come.
Kids very happy. Happy kids.
That's what really matters.
I felt bad being away so long and wanted to wish a merry happy merry… i'll be back toporrow (as parker would say…, from his new big boy bed that santa brought him, still not weaned, still the booby man in the big boy bed…)
xxoo

fussy fuss-asses

December 22, 2005

in super mom

Tristan and toby are off on saltspring for two days. Shane and i don't want to admit it, but life is easy without them. They, the fussy fuss-asses. (This is how we spend our nights – talk of the fussy fuss-asses and how they make our lives miserable.)
Saltspring is the land of magical things – the arty, crafty grandma and the grandpa with the b.b. gun, bow 'n arrow, and sling-shot – it is the 6 year old boy and 8 year old girl dream vacation. I used to worry about the giant well in their front yard, now i worry about my son coming back with vision and my daughter even looking me in the eye once she has seen the beauty of the crafty woman. Crafty woman – see how high she flies, woo-ooo.
So, now that you are all confused i shall go to bed. My job here is done. It's not really. This was supposed to be about tristan and toby the fuss-ass eaters and how parker and eliza ate mussels in coconut curry for dinner. But, i am too tired to move my fingers, be back after sleep **insert snores here**
