Dulce Means Sweet

Posted on July 6, 2011 by BrassyDel

Dulce is a sweet black lab and sheperd mix, rescued from a hoarding case in Arizona. 9 years old, she is calm, gentle, and a bit of a heart-stealer. Dulce is in a foster home right now and can be adopted through the Humane Society of Boulder Valley – the same place our lovely Tank and Matti came from! This…

What to Wear Wednesday: SHOES

Posted on July 6, 2011 by BrassyDel

I’m channeling Jenny On The Spot right now so that I can bring you What to Wear Wednesday. In fact, Jenny even talked about shoes already here. So. Shoes. Oft overlooked (by men like my husband), they serve a purpose besides just protecting your feet. Your shoes say something about you, and your presentation to the world, and even how…

This Baby Knows How to Party: QUIETLY.

Posted on July 4, 2011 by BrassyDel

A couple weeks ago, the Hubbles and I dropped Pixie off with her Auntie and cousins and we went off to a party. In the middle of the day! All dressed up! And there was beer. Two friends of ours got married up in the mountains. Beautiful ceremony, wonderful reception, cake, and friends. And cake. We left Pixie behind because…

Happy Friday! To celebrate, here’s a picture of an adorable baby boy at twelve weeks old! With some crazy-lookin’ lady! Bonus: The Hubbles is back there, too. Well, part of him. The majority of his head, anyway. Extra Bonus: IN A SUIT.

P-shoo, p-shoo!

Posted on June 22, 2011 by BrassyDel

I have small children. I make sound effects. For everything. Most commonly, items make noises while they are put away. Putting my wallet back in my purse? P-shooo! Putting the milk back in the fridge? Buh-YOUUUUUUU! Putting a baby down? Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah! Tempting a child to eat more food? The food flies around on a fork and…

The Long and Short of It

Posted on June 21, 2011 by BrassyDel

It’s summer. It’s hot. I hate baby spit-up in my hair. Therefore: let’s herald the return of the faux! Sort of. Return of the Faux Hawk When I Feel Like Doing My Hair Properly doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, though. So usually it’s just rather short and rather much like a man’s haircut. Fortunately, the facial hair…

Baby Steps

Posted on June 20, 2011 by BrassyDel

This clip is from March or so, shortly after Pixie finally started letting go of her physical supports and toddling around on her own. Someday she’ll walk like a big girl, and she walks straighter and more balanced every day, but for now I am enjoying that silly little toddle. I’m trying to teach her to remark, “Doot, doot! I’m…

My Son ROCKS that Pink Diaper – Friday Photo

Posted on June 17, 2011 by BrassyDel

At first, I didn’t put Chappy in Pixie’s hand-me-down bright pink diaper cover. I quickly decided this was ridiculous for myriad reasons, not least of which is that lots of men these days are wearing pink. And look good doing it. Men are truly taking back pink, and not just in a bad 80’s flash back sort of way. So…

Jeggings

Posted on June 16, 2011 by BrassyDel

Have you heard of these? By now, I think even my husband knows what jeggings are, so I’m pretty sure the rest of the internet does too. Just in case you don’t, “jeggings” are jean leggings. So they’re not made out of denim, but stretchy legging/tights material, but look like jeans. They also practically look painted on, are purportedly comfortable,…
