Chicken Fingers, Vaginas and Caillou…..

Whirlwind has been popping out some good ones lately…. You can tell she is using that little brain of hers.  For example; Whirlwind:  “Why does Caillou get to wear shoes inside?” Me:  “Um……Because they don’t have carpet in their house.” What I really want to…

The Vow…..

I am so fucking sick of all these movies geared towards fifteen year old boys and their disposable income. I do NOT want to watch all these stupid horror movies. Or whatever the hell you call them. I just don’t. I don’t. I don’t. I…

Salad Eating Mommy…..

I would like to lose thirty pounds.  This is not news. And its pretty important to me that I try to keep these facts from my kids. I grew up feeling fat even when I wasn’t. I went on my first diet when I was…

You know those Moms that I usually judge and make fun of because they are uber parents? Yes, I used the word uber again. Sorry. Well, today I found myself committing a Mommy’s Weird Faux Pas. I got involved. But, I didn’t really mean to….
