Are the squirrels watching their cholesterol? 2008-04-21 16:49:55 I had seen a cute and simple craft on the internet that I thought would be the perfect little Saturday afternoon mommy-and-Princess activity. It is really simple and I recommend it for anyone with a toddler or preschooler in their home. All you need is:
one pipe cleaner
a handful of Cheerios
You are going to make a [...]
Why did the turtle cross the road? 2008-04-22 14:00:14 …I’ll never know why but I sure am glad that he/she made it across instead of becoming road pizza under my tires. That would have been a rather inauspicious way to start Earth Day.
So, T, what did you do for Earth Day?
Oh, nothing special. I just killed one of God’s creatures by driving my natural-resource-consuming [...] Read more:turtle
No More Months 2008-04-24 14:27:54 As I was looking at the private website a friend has for sharing photos and tidbits about her children I noticed the page heading. It listed her daughter’s age in months. And then it hit me. I don’t know how many months old my daughter is! I do know the precise [...] Read more:Months
Operation Cereal Watch has begun 2008-04-28 21:03:44 Remember how I wanted to see if the wildlife in my area is too snooty for Apple Jacks or if they are simply too full from snacking at everyone else’s bird feeders? (If you don’t remember you can jog you’re memory by reading this post.) My inner monkey is getting the best of me. I’m [...] Read more:Operation

Operation Cereal Watch - Day 2 2008-04-29 20:31:39 Day 2 of OperationCereal
Watch and no takers. All of the cereal is still on the pipe cleaners. I’m really starting to wonder if the animals in my neighborhood are afraid of entering my back yard. Did the fat squirrel that Screw Ball chased last year - the one that was [...]
Operation Cereal Watch - Day 3 2008-04-30 20:42:20 What the blazes is going on!
They’re eating the Apple Jacks and leaving the Cheerios alone. That wasn’t supposed to happen. At least I’m not as concerned about putting Apple Jacks into my own or Princess’s body anymore. It’s kind of like Life cereal - if Mikey will eat it… In this case, if the neighborhood [...] Read more:Operation

Would this be a called irony 2008-05-01 21:46:53 Today was pajama day at day care again. Last night I got Princess dressed in her PJs. This morning she put on sock and shoes, I did her hair and she was all set to go to school. Ah. The morning routine went so much faster. If it were any [...]

Flower Power 2008-05-06 15:17:14 Yesterday I was feeling rather blue until I pulled one of these out of my work bag for a late afternoon snack.
They are soooo cute! It just brightened my afternoon right up.
I made these with Princess and, even though baking with her is always fun, I think she has almost as much fun decorating these [...] Read more:Flower Power
What I know now 2008-05-08 21:43:42 Aimee from The Mother Load wrote a top 10 list of things she has learned since she became a mother. I thought it was such a great idea I had to come up with my own list. These are all things that Princess taught me by making me her mother.
Before she came along:

The Sweetest Honey 2008-05-13 14:49:33 On Mother’s Day I got a small unexpected present during Mass. Since she was born Princess has enjoyed church music. As an infant one of the tricks I had in my play book to calm her down was to sing the Lamb of God. I realize that this was her music of choice [...] Read more:Sweetest
Good Summer Eats 2008-05-15 08:51:23 Megan@FriedOkra has asked us all to pull out or favorite Spring and Summer
Recipes. Well, to me, this means food that does NOT get cooked in the kitchen. If my hard earned money is flying out of my bank account in the form of air conditioning I don’t want to pay for even more electricity [...]

First up, Karen @ Simply A Musing Blog asked:
You mentioned in your 100 Things that you have actually been recorded [...]
Broccoli! Celery! My Mommy! VeggieTales 2008-05-19 16:45:04 I had to warn my mom that Princess may try to pull up her shirt or ask to take a look at her tummy the next time she sees her. Why? Oh, now that’s a funny story…
Princess and I are big VeggieTales fans. We were listening to Veggie Radio Saturday night and Belly [...] Read more:Broccoli

Ask T 2008-05-19 14:11:47 I’ve been wanting to do this for a while but I was afraid that the sound of crickets chirping from the empty comment box would be too deafening so I did what I do best… I procrastinated. But with a little encouragement from my friends and a “if you do it I will too” talk [...]
You Ask, T Answers - Part 2 2008-05-21 20:40:49 Since I don’t watch American Idol I figured I’d spend some time answering more of your questions tonight. This next round is courtesy of MamaGeek.
1- Do you ever want to stop or quit blogging?
Only every other day. If any of you are able to sit down and rattle off a blog post know [...]
Busy, busy, busy… 2008-05-23 21:20:27 It’s a holiday weekend and as usual our family has a LOT going on. Tons of fun is in store and I’m not sure of how much time I’ll have to spend with my friend the laptop. So the blogging may be a bit light at T with Honey over the next week.
Have a GREAT [...]
And The Crazy Continues 2008-05-30 11:25:35 I left a lot of details about our trip out of my last post. There was just so much that happened if I tried to write it all down I’d never finish. However something happened that has crept up to bite us in the bud and is creating a little crazy in our [...] Read more:Crazy
Returning to the Routine 2008-05-29 21:20:12 This past Memorial Day Weekend was very, very busy for Honey and I. We had a lot on our plate. It all started with a long drive to my mom’s house on Thursday night (OMG! That was a week ago?!)
The next day we got into the car for an even longer trip but [...] Read more:Routine
How to Make Butterflies 2008-06-02 12:30:51 As I was driving to day care Princess pointed toward the driver’s side of the car and said “Mommy, I see butterflies.” I try to glance sideways to see if the car in the passing lane has a butterfly decal on the window or if we drove by a swarm of butterflies that Princess, [...]
What to do when people won’t stop asking about baby names 2008-06-03 20:37:38 Oh my goodness gracious! I had completely forgotten about the ‘joke’ names. My mom left a comment on my last post and mentioned that she “was happy that her name was not the one you threatened (which fit my criteria), Hedwig.”
During my baby name searching I discovering that almost all of the names used in [...] Read more:asking

You Asked, T Answers - Part 3 2008-06-03 16:48:25 I haven’t forgotten about all those questions you asked two weeks ago. I’m having fun writing long, epic answers to each of them. No quick Q & A from me. Mom needs stuff to read to keep her from going nuts this week while resting those legs of hers and I plan [...]
Blogging + Library = Zzzzzzz for Me 2008-06-03 11:32:09 Saturday night I had one of the best nights of sleep I have had in a looooong time. I didn’t wake up once from the time I fell asleep somewhere before 10 PM until the sun started shining through the bedroom windows at 5 AM. As my groggy head picked itself off the pillows I [...] Read more:Library

You Ask, T Answers - Part 4 2008-06-05 10:50:17 The hormonal, sleep deprived Sara from The Estrogen Files (she’s 33 weeks pregnant ) asked some questions that will give you some chuckles today. She asked:
What be the most embarrassing thing that happened to you EVER?
The most embarrassing thing to ever happen to me happened, mercifully, while I was unconscious. I won’t try to [...]

The One Where Princess Meets The Bucket 2008-06-10 12:48:04 All day Sunday I was feeling out of sorts. I was short tempered, grumpy and feeling just kind of off. That night I went to bed early as I felt the beginning tensions of a headache coming on.
Around 1AM I woke up to a full on migraine. I stayed in bed for the next hour [...] Read more:Princess
My Mom and Her Dogs 2008-06-11 17:03:43 At the end of May my mom was having trouble with her leg. She was diagnosed with cellulitis, given antibiotics and sent home. We thought that the medication would take care of the infection and that was the end of the story.
Wrong.
Two days ago the pain got worse.
Yesterday afternoon the pain was so bad that [...]
Good News 2008-06-12 21:31:28 My mom had surgery to drain the abscess in her leg this evening and everything went smoothly. I talked to her about an hour ago and I could hear the difference in her voice. I’m sure I would be feeling better too if I just had infectious material the size of a softball [...] Read more:Good News
You Ask, T Answers - Part 5 2008-06-16 09:21:01 No voluminous answers this round. I’m too busy hanging out at the hospital with my mom this week. Answering some of your lighter questions with shorter answers seemed the perfect Monday morning post. Consider this the Potpourri edition.
The following questions came from Kelly:
I’ll chime in! How about some mothering questions? Do you [...]
