Jack lost his 4th tooth this morning. Well, I actually jerked it out. (He asked me.) It was really icky. It took two tries.
We’ll see if the tooth fairy can manage to show up tonight.

The girl cherub lost her second tooth Saturday night. There were tears Sunday morning as she awoke to find that the tooth fairy. did. not. leave. her. ANYTHING!
I actually blamed it on her, because she left her tooth pillow in the living room. Clearly the tooth fairy can’t be expected to find her tooth […]

Please delurk and let me know what ever the hell it is you are looking for. Maybe you think I’m witty and just like my style, or maybe you’re an ax murder plotting to come kill my entire […]

There’s more of the same going on here. Beach, Beach House, Beach, Beach House, Beach, Beach House, and that’s all before lunch. But today I’m shaking things up a little, it’s grocery store, beach, dad, beach house, beach, beach house, beach, beach house. See what a rebel I am? You just can’t hold me down.
And […]

I’m having an uber blissful morning on the beach. All the cherubs have abandoned the surf due to an abundance of jelly fish, leaving me alone to the crashing of the waves. I almost feel sorry for the adults left back at the full beach house. Almost. But alone, I am able to indulge in […]
