Snow Day

Posted on March 1, 2012 by BrassyDel

We had a lot of snow dump all at once a couple weeks ago. It’s been a ridiculously warm winter for here in central Colorado, but I’m not complaining too much. Snow can be fun to play in, especially if you are a Pixie or a Matti, but I’m not a fan of driving in it. Or of paying for…

Rotten

Posted on January 16, 2012 by BrassyDel

I’m having a rotten day. My attitude stinks, my kids are cranky, and my kitchen is a mess. Oh, and we’re out of bananas so I need to go to the store, and I really don’t want to. I have to make a grocery list, get the kids in the car, and wear pants. Talk about a hassle. My kids…

Five Months

Posted on September 13, 2011 by BrassyDel

I can’t believe Chappy is already five months old! Why, just earlier this week the gal cutting my fabulous hair asked me when my baby was due. Yeah. I think I have a date with a Jillian Michaels DVD soon. You know, as soon as I can get these kids to sleep on a schedule conducive to, uh, anything at…

He Doesn’t Know it’s not Fall Yet

Posted on August 26, 2011 by BrassyDel

Pumpkins traditionally herald the beginning the Fall, thanks to their nature as a seasonal vegetable. They are also simply extremely awesome. While it isn’t fall yet, it is time for Chappy, aka Chappy McChappersons (or, when relevant, Poopy McPoopersons), to start trying out some solid food. And by “solid” I mean “mostly-liquid mush”. If I’d had a pumpkin on hand,…

Spoiled.

Posted on August 12, 2011 by BrassyDel

Somebody got a brand new toy! It’s a big, plastic egg by Jolly Pets, is fairly lightweight, and the egg shape makes it wobble erratically when he pushes it. Also, he can’t bite it, and not for lack of trying. Tank is in L-O-V-E with this thing, so I hope it holds up well. He pushes it with his head…

Overgrown

Posted on August 10, 2011 by BrassyDel

I promised you guys that I’d show you my garden space when it was no longer just tilled dirt. Well. It’s not just tilled dirt anymore. In fact, up until a couple of days ago, it was like this: Oops. I actually weeded it a couple of weeks ago, when it looked like this, and put down Preen. I think…

Curls and Pigtails

Posted on August 5, 2011 by BrassyDel

Neither of my babies were born bald, and I even recall asking the nurse if Pixie had hair as soon as her head was crowning. See, this is the magic of the epidural. I can guarantee you that if I was still in the level of pain I had been in before the magic juice epidural, I would not have…

Toes!

Posted on July 29, 2011 by BrassyDel

At a smidge under 4 months old, Chappy McChappersons here is constantly holding onto his toes. His big sis Pixie wasn’t really into that for a bit longer, so I find it funny. He’s also pretty much perpetual smiles THANK GOD. Somebody around here needs to be!

Satellite Adoption Center

Posted on July 28, 2011 by BrassyDel

No, not that kind! Yes, I’d love to adopt a geosynchronous satellite, too, but I don’t think you can. Yet. While we’re waiting, though, you can totes adopt a dog or a cat from the Humane Society of Boulder Valley at their new satellite adoption center in Westminster! The local Petsmart, which is actually where my former roommate adopted her…

I Heard You Like Shoes. (Friday Photo)

Posted on July 8, 2011 by BrassyDel

Pixie loves shoes. One of her first clear words, she delights in pointing out shoes wherever possible. She also is quick to bring you her shoes if asked, since she knows she needs her shoes in order to go out. Sometimes she puts her shoes on herself now, at least when she can slip them on. Recently, she was toddling…
