Sweet T met her first celebrity last week. Christy Jordan of Southern Plate fame happened to be at Ann Taylor Loft at the same time as my mom and me. Christy was on a quest for a wrinkle-free blouse for her upcoming Southern Living Magazine photo shoot whilst I was just on a quest to [...]

April 10, 2011 By 4 Comments
My aunt put a couple of mesh infant feeders in Sweet T’s stocking this past Christmas and this week I decided to see if she was ready for them. She was! I put some plum pieces in there and you’d think she’d died and gone to heaven. There’s video at the end of the post.

Hot Wings?
March 29, 2011 By 8 Comments
It that special time of year when one day you are sweating in the garden and the next night it’s time to crank up the woodburning stove. Hubs got a surprise when he went to start a fire last night. Poor little bluebird was more of a graybird at this point! There were actually two [...]

Jenny Jump Up Time!
February 5, 2011 By 5 Comments
My tangle with the Jenny Jump Up could have made it in the Guinness Book of World Records for lengthiest and sloppiest assembly of a child’s toy. After two attempts it was finally safe enough to use, though Hubs had to fix a twisted strap when he got home. Thank God he has mechanical/spacial skills. [...]
A Bright Sunshiny Day

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day last Saturday. There’s nothing like Sixty-five degree sunshine in the middle of winter to do wonders for your mood and productivity. Sweet T and I hung out under the carport potting broccoli and onion sprouts while Hubs took down the dog pen and replaced it in [...]
Introducing solids – attempts number 2 and 3
February 1, 2011 By 14 Comments
We tried to coax Sweet T into taking some rice cereal mixed with breast milk in a bottle when she was 5 months old. She wasn’t impressed. Now that she’s a few days away from turning six months, I thought I’d attempt the same concoction in a cup. All ready to go Bring it on! [...]
Sunday Sweets: A Jumping Sweet T!
January 23, 2011 By 7 Comments
Do you think she might like her jumper just a little bit? You’d think this would keep her entertained for hours, but really only for 10 minutes max. Still, 10 minutes is 10 minutes! I can inhale some food and take a potty break in that amount of time.

There are four groups of people that will read this post.1. Those who are wondering what on earth birch beer is (you’re from below the Mason Dixon aren’t you?)2. Northerners wondering why I’m dedicating a post to birch beer (thinking, “they don’t serve that everywhere?”)3.Those who are from up North but living in another part [...]
