A Wal-Mart employee was killed this morning as a mob of “Black Friday” shoppers trampled him.
Seriously? You really need a cheap TV so badly that it is worth someone’s life? That’s the sad thing. The crap that goes on sale for Black Friday is not even anything that anyone NEEDS. If starving people trampled someone [...]

And they came back normal. So for now, no anti-seizure meds! Hooray!
He’ll go back to the nuerologist in February. If he hasn’t had another seizure by then, we do not have to medicate.

“When a child hits a child, we call it aggression.
When a child hits an adult, we call it hostility.
When an adult hits an adult, we call it assault.
When an adult hits a child, we call it discipline.” – Haim Ginott
I actually get a lot of flack for choosing NOT to hit my child. I am [...]

Keagan and I both have colds. We’re miserable, but Keagan is entertained. Apparently, when Mama coughs it is the funniest thing in the world. He has been laughing all morning.

The past month or so, sleep has been hard to come by at my house. My 19 month old son has been tossing and turning all over our small bed (full sized) and waking up every few hours. Add to that my quickly expanding baby belly and we were tired and out of space. So [...]

I saw this activity on another blog (The Write Start) and modified it to work for my almost 19 month old. He had a good time playing with the pasta and putting it in the muffin tray.
Eventually, he got bored with it and started climbing around, asking for books, so we moved on to reading [...]

Keagan has decided he’s afraid of the bath. It’s making bath time ever so hard.
Maybe he can just skip baths all together and be the stinky kid
He has also taken to stripping down to nothing and peeing in the corner when he has to go. I know I need to potty train him, [...]

Keagan has been really good about saying thank you for the last month or so. It’s really cute. I’ve been trying to get him to say please instead of screaming at me when he wants things
He did it last night for the first time. “More please,” he said in a sweet little voice, [...]
