Earlier this evening I think I got a few people curious by tweeting that Renton did the nastiest thing ever. So nasty, in fact, that I wasn’t sure if I could write about it . . . Well, I’m over that, so if you still DON’T want to know, then read no further. Seriously. Early […]

renton’s malaise
Well, it’s the end of September. It’s time for an unannounced vet visit for Renton! This September’s visit brought to you by copious amounts of barfing. The barfing has been going on for a while. In fact, I would announce some sort of complaint about it every now and again on Twitter. However, he has […]
renton’s small children
Though I don’t usually write about it much (really, who wants to hear about cat poop), a lot of y’all know about Renton and his tendency towards traffic jams of the lower intestine. After his last doctor visit, complete with enemas, the vet mentioned the dreaded word ‘megacolon’ and suggested adding pumpkin to his daily […]
my kingdom for a lap
Lydia, Hermione, and I were playing on the floor this morning when Hermione spied an open lap to cuddle up in: Lydia’s. She went for it, which got Lydia so excited she began scissor-kicking. Hermione, now feeling rejected, came back into my arms to cuddle with me. I’m just thrilled that Hermione recognizes Lydia as […]
can’t win for losing
This year I made a change in my present-wrapping material to derail Renton’s nutty habits. Tecnically, you could say it worked — he hasn’t been caught munching under the tree once. The problem, again, is Hermione. She seems to have a taste for raffia. Once again I am faced with presenting gifts encrusted with a […]
surprisingly boring
Despite having a newborn around the house, there’s not really much worth talking about. At least, nothing non-babywise. For the time being I plan on keeping that on the other site. Since I’m still home on maternity leave, baby is all I do right now. A squirrel has taken interest in our deck because of […]
pretty in pink
Every once in a while, Renton will pull off the cute look. It keeps us from kicking him out of the house.
looking at him makes you tired
When I’m getting ready for work in the mornings, Renton is very good at making me feel guilty about leaving. All he has to do is lounge in the bed like this: It makes it very hard to get ready for work in the mornings. His eyes are usually half-shut, too, but I didn’t sneak […]
a memoriam to my pants
Earlier this evening I was enjoying my its-not-delivery-its-Digorno pizza when Hermione hopped into my lap to see what flavor pizza I had. I figured that was none of her business so I started to nudge her off my lap. Hermione started to slip off my lap despite her best intentions to hold on, then all […]
bad day/good day
Hermione had a horrible day Saturday. She was lounging in the sun when her Mom and Dad came up with The Carriers — there was no escape. Trapped, she pleaded and cried for them to stop the torture — surely her Daddy would heed her cries — but they took her all the way to […]
