My little mama is in the running for Psychobaby of the month over at my favorite children’s store’s blog. I sent the pic in March and thought they decided not to include her, but 5 months later…there she is. I found Psychobaby while looking for clothes for Kade online that didn’t have trains, sporting goods, [...]

Lollapalooza Weekend 2008

August 5, 2008 – 10:02 pm

These two faces made it difficult to leave for Chicago…but Kyle managed to get me into the car anyway. He didn’t even have to twist my arm, but he did have to dry a few tears.

The first thing we did upon our arrival was drink wine. There is no better start to a vacay than [...]

Ok..I was thrust back into reality and I’m not coping well. I need to do a Lolla recap, which will hopefully come tomorrow when my head isn’t swimming with all of the things I need to get accomplished before life resumes in the morning. I managed to fulfill two out of three of my weekend [...]

Music is my…

July 10, 2008 – 4:56 pm

A friend of mine just sent an invite for a “Soundtrack of Our Lives” party. It’s a girls only event where we each compile a soundtrack that chronicles our history and have them loop in the background while we catch up, laugh, cry and drink lots of wine. We need to choose one song that [...]

Personal Best

June 22, 2008 – 10:36 pm

We had a belated, 7th anniversary, celebratory weekend that started out with dinner at Parallax on Friday night. I got to indulge in my all-time favorite…seared scallops, drink fine wine, and completely ignore the constant beeping of my CGM telling me that my sugars were out of control.
I got my long run in on Friday [...]

Bikes, beer, and babes

June 9, 2008 – 4:00 pm

We were in Sandusky this weekend and were lucky to get a few nights to ourselves (thanks, mom) to check out the start of Ohio Bike Week. It brings a ton of money to the city, and it makes the area come alive. Sandusky can be pretty boring, but this week it is anything but…

Rock-n-Tot

May 12, 2008 – 3:02 pm

My anxiety level always reaches new heights when we are planning on taking the kids somewhere new and different. Kade can be rather unpredictable, and he doesn’t readily accept change, so we tend to stick with what he’s comfortable with, which isn’t much. That said, we’ve wanted to check out Cleveland’s Rock-n-Tot event because it [...]

No ice-cold beer here

May 8, 2008 – 3:25 pm

So I didn’t get to rock-out with the Black Keys last night, but I did get to hang out with some friends over burgers and beer. It was a low key evening, we were all rather tired, and as much as we love each other, we were home by 9:30. It sucks getting old.
I think [...]

New info

April 29, 2008 – 2:20 pm

One of the additional categories that Kyle created for me on this blog is Rockstar, which I haven’t posted under yet because we haven’t had one of our “rockstar weekends” that my mom so generously supplies for us by whisking the kids off to Sand-town for a few days so we can stay out, sleep [...]

We’re Not the Only Ones

November 20, 2007 – 4:13 pm

Apparently, someone else organized a South Euclid Bar Crawl. It was 3 years prior to ours, and even included the Golden Coins…it’s nice to see that some things never change (the Coins looked a lot more happening in his photos than it was on Saturday night, though). I think there is a need for an [...]
