Miscellany v3: Recap Edition

So, there’s been a few things that I haven’t posted about. Either too small for their own post, or I forgot when it was timely and amusing and now it’s just old, or whatever … *** At Kiir’s brother’s graduation, the night we drove up we went out to japanese. First off — DK does [...]

Snacktime for DK

So, each night DK’s been getting a snack around 9:30, and it’s moved up to 8:30 the last few days. The reasoning being that he needs a bit of a snack after dinner to let him sleep through to a reasonable time. Like 4am instead of 2 :o Tonight, however, he seems to have decided [...]

House Cleaning

This weekend we worked on cleaning the house. Living Room: Picked up ALL of DK’s toys and put them in the ‘storage’ bins we have on teh shelves. I think we need to go further and look through the bins, decide which toys to keep out and box up the rest for storage or donation [...]

Ex-Box

So, I had something else I was going to post about, but I’ve spent two days now and I can only remember it in the middle of my trainride or a meeting or somewhere equally inaccessible. Instead, I’m going to kvetch about the fact that Kiir has stolen the XBox 360!!! For her birthday, she [...]

Pick Yer Strawberries!

So, today was the first day that the Pick Your Own (Larriland Farms) was open for picking. Strawberries are starting to come into season, and they had about an acre of ripe ones. We decided to take DK out. I remember going strawberry, and possibly blueberry, picking with my mom at a farm up near [...]

Pain In The Asterisk

I’ve been trying to put something up every day, but obviously I missed this week Partially due to DK being a little extra clingy (soon as dinner’s done I’m ending up playing video games for him, and continuing until midnight (note the time?)). Partially due to the rest of this post — So, about 3 [...]

SleepAde

Last night, after our trip, I was exhausted. So Kiir went up to bed ~10ish (maybe 10:30?). DK followed her about 30 minutes later. And by that, I mean he went over to the gate when I was going to the kitchen for something, and then started climbing the stairs :o So, I tossed a [...]

Back from our trip (miscellany 2)

Got back from our trip this evening. Cost a little less in tolls on the way back, although delaware did it’s level best to cover the difference. I swear, DE is bitter about the fact that no one lives in the state and that they exist solely as a tax shelter for companies. The full [...]

Miscellany v1: Driving Edition

So, this post is primarily about the drive up to Connecticut this weekend First off, it cost 7$ to get out of MD. Then 4$ more to get into Delaware. WTF am i going to go when I’m going across an effing bridge from MD to DE??? LAEM Then 7$ for the NJTP, and 8$ [...]

Baby vs Bathtub, Round 1

So … As I’m getting home this evening (literally, I was halfway up the 10-15′ walk to the house), my phone rings. Kiir is calling to find out when I’ll be home. I’d been planning to go past the farmers market, see if it was open for the season yet or not (I forgot, but [...]
