No More Corn Please
I went through a rough patch when I was pregnant with Coop where I watched more episodes of the Maury show than any person should ever inflict upon themselves. One thing that frustrated the fucking shit out of me is when people faced with a paternity test would exclaim, “Babies in my family do not [...]
Passwords, Protection, Butt Sex
I’m making this post sticky in order to make sure everyone reads it. READ THIS. Okay? If you asked for the password related to adoption posts, you may have it. EVERYONE. Except my First Son and his parents. If you think that you might be my First Son or his parents, I politely request that [...]
Adam and The Gluten
My friend Batty Nurse asked about any differences that Adam has noticed in eliminating gluten from his diet. Well, that’s a hard one. As an Aspie, Adam doesn’t have a lot of self-awareness skills. I have learned to tell him, “Adam, you seem to be angry right now,” and he has learned not to go [...]
To Swistle, With Love
My dear friend Swistle has a Christmas card scoring system that I love. This year you can purchase it somewhere but I cannot find the link. (ETA: The card and the poster are available for purchase. Thanks for the links, Swistle!) Adam’s grandmother wrote and emailed this gem for all her family to cherish. I [...]
Guest Post from Jeremy
From the outside you’d never know that anything was amiss. Living in today’s world, nobody takes the time to stop and really see what goes on inside of other people. We are too busy with the things of the day to take that extra moment to stop and wonder, maybe out loud, or maybe to [...]
Happy Birthday Chicken
I feel like a moron for not giving more information about Chicken’s birthday present. During the text conversation with H1, Chicken was distracted by shoe shopping. I grabbed his phone and I was responsible for telling his father that the mixer was $400. I was hoping that it would goad H1 into buying the iPod [...]
Park Day
I try to do as much with Egg and Chicken as I physically can each day. Lately, as I am off of all my fibromyalgia medications I have found that planning one day to do things and the next day to relax at home works well for me. Of course, relaxing at home still means [...]
Lion Sex is Overrated
I went to the Wild Animal Park today with Egg and a friend. We went at the end of the day and the place was nearly deserted. I love having an annual pass. The weather was perfect, Egg was elated, and then there was the sex. The first sexual encounter occurred in the small aviary [...]
Annoyed
Today I went to Egg and Chicken’s former pediatrician to get copies of Egg’s medical records for the Early Start assessment on Monday. Under his 18 month check-up notes it says, “expressive language delay.” This irritates me, because he most definitely does NOT have an expressive language delay. He has an [possible] oral language delay. [...]
I Hate You, Phone of DOOM
Dude. I should be sleeping. But instead I’m sitting here with a belly full of anxiety, wanting to post but not wanting to post and OMG I’M JUST GOING TO WRITE AND HIT PUBLISH AND GO TO FUCKING BED ALREADY. You might notice that I’m a bit uptight. I still have one more big post [...]
