Earlier this morning I had this conversation as follow-up to my day off yesterday.
Me: So, were the kids good yesterday?
My brother: Oh, come on, Kate. (rolls eyes)
Me: OK, were they good-ish?
My bother: Yeah, they were fine.




































That’s Baldman’s mantra, “The secret to happiness is to lower your expectations.” Sad how many times I’ve actually had to employ this one!

Thanks Kerri (for liking me).
I am afraid the baldman is right.
What in the world is a nutella sandwich?

For some reason my 3 …almost 4 month old son is never as well behaved for others as he is for me, but at his age that means he didn’t want to take the bottle (he’s a breast boy) or wouldn’t go to sleep.
Ah Maria, they can’t be really bad until they’re two years old.
True enough. He is too young to do any of the REALLY bad stuff!
