Kid Craziness
Every time you think you have a handle on kids, they find new ways to make you nuts. Luke had a fever last evening, took a nap, and then ended up going to bed late (10:45). At 2:20, he woke up howling. I was guessing that either his ibuprofen ran out, or a stuffy nose…

How Degrading…
First, you’ve got me wearing a heart shaped valentine’s themed bib. Second, the bib says first valentines. Third, I’m drinking out of a pink sippy cup. Well, never mind the last one, its way better than the blue one.

Booster Seat? Be gone.
Ok, now we’re done with the booster seat. No injuries yet, ascending and descending our bar height kitchen table chairs.
