Well, hello

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

Eva is sick. She is the sickest she has ever been. It started with pink eye which went undiagnosed for too long so it turned into a bad sore throat and infection in both ears. A high fever accompanied it all. I pretty much sat on the couch and held her all day yesterday because [...]

Learning to be a meerkat mom

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

My house is on a pretty busy street and I would really like a fence in front of my yard so that in the future my kids can play outside and I can worry a bit less.  Over the weekend I did a lot of yard work.  Eva loves being outside and is really good [...]

Hawaiian Cowgirl Airing out

Another post about being sad that my baby is growing up.

Monday, May 17th, 2010

Sometimes there are amazing moments in my life and they are so perfect that I take a picture in my mind and try to remember it exactly that way forever.  The memory always fades a bit but I remember that I loved it. There are some memories that I didn’t know, at the time, how [...]

Mama with advice

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

Today when I left to work Eva followed me to the door and cried and said “Mama” and it broke my heart a little but also made me happy because she has never cried when I left.  She has cried when her dad has left and when her cousins have left but she usually kisses [...]

Post Mother’s Day Post

Monday, May 10th, 2010

I had a great weekend is sunny California with friends and my little Evakins.  The weather was beautiful and I wore shorts and sun dresses and sunglasses.  I got to eat at one of my favorite restaurants The Crab Cooker where I ate king crab claws that melted in my mouth with no butter required [...]

Wishes and a rant

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

I wish I was in Hawaii on the beach. I wish that people would not brake while merging onto the freeway; it doesn’t make any sense. I wish that people would react more quickly when there is a green arrow; it is so angering when two cars get through the light when 10 could have! [...]

Go Aheads

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

The weather is finally warm. So today Eva gets to wear her new flip flops.  Growing up we called flip flops “Go Aheads”; did anyone else?  It is the perfect name for them since it is extremely difficult to walk backwards in go aheads. Eva’s feet are perfect for go aheads since she has a [...]

rambling on but a barrel full of laughs

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

So it is still freezing cold and I am pretty mad about it although I am aware that I live in a desert and that any water we get I should be sincerely grateful for although my long showers and running the water so Eva will pee in the toilet might prove otherwise. Yes I [...]

i am weaning so therefore I am nonsensical and given leeway to be so

Monday, February 8th, 2010

I am in the process of weaning Eva but I think I am actually weaning myself.  The main reason I have decided to do this is because she gets up a 1 a.m. and wants to nurse and is restless and nursing until about 5 a.m. when she finally falls back to sleep.  Obviously this [...]
