Bathing Beauty

By jesser | Published: 10:37 pm

Tonight was session #2 of swim class. Tabby really enjoys being in the water, but I'm not so sure she enjoys the idea of swimming. She doesn't want to put her face in the water. She doesn't want to float on her back or front. She was keen, however, on falling into my arms from [...]

We had such a busy weekend. Friday night my mom came over and we made up a huuuuge lasagna for Tabby's party next week. That took pretty much the entire evening. Saturday, we made some breakfast and headed off to run errands. We went to Cook's Fresh Market in search of a paticular variety of [...]

Fresh Veg

Spring is just around the corner. I swear … I can feel it. Nevermind that March is our snowiest month, usually. I'm confident. OK, so I'm not, but I am happy. I think I found us a couple of options for CSA! For those of you not familiar with CSA, it stands for Community Supported [...]

By jesser | Published: 6:45 am

I'm about 1/3 of the way through The Baby Whisperer: The Toddler Years (thanks again, BookMooch!). I like her style and this book has presented me with some ideas and techniques I hadn't thought of before. But one thing keeps cropping up … mommy support/baby socialization groups.

My Funny Valentines

By jesser | Published: 7:51 am

Hope you all had a lovely Valentine's Day with the special people in your life. I ended up spending the day at home with Tabby. She came down with a fever on Wednesday night and couldn't go to daycare. And anyway, she was all pathetic and clingy and in need of attention and snuggles. Wait. [...]
