Bald and Beautiful

So, I got a new haircut this week.  I’ve always wanted to shave my head, so here is the result.  What do you think?  Can I pull it off?

All I needed was a good excuse.  For me that excuse came in the form of the youth halloween party, for which, I was told, costumes were [...]

Update on Introverts

A few months ago, I posted an interesting article I found on introverts, of which I am definitely one.  That post has had a lot of traffic and I thought I would post a follow up to it.  I just ran across this list recently, titled “How to Care for Introverts.”  So, if you have [...]

Come on Home to Green River

Well, we just got back from our trip to Utah.  I have lots to write about, as it was a great, adventure-filled trip.  But, first I wanted to post these photos that Jeremy sent me.
Porter and Walker went on their first rafting trip, while we were in Utah.  We went with Grandma and Grandpa Hurren, [...]

Toilet Training

So, it seems Luke is learning to use the toilet at only 18 months old.  Don’t get me wrong.  He isn’t actually peeing in the toilet, but he has figured out how to flush.  Unfortunately, he’s also learned how to throw random things from around the bathroom into the toilet before flushing it.
Which leads me [...]

Baby Pics

On our recent trip to Seattle, my Mom brought along my childhood photo album and gave it to me. I was flipping through it with the boys today and noticing how much Porter and Luke look like me when I was a kid. At least I think so. Walker, not so much. [...]

Watch Your Mouth

Sorry it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything, but I’ve been recuperating from the hectic month of blog war. Plus I’ve been a little busy with a trip to Seattle (check out the photos in the sidebar) and with a flooding basement. But, things are relatively quiet tonight, so I thought I [...]

LOLCat

Here’s a little video we took of Luke playing with our still, unnamed cat.

Inconceivable

Well, I guess the fifth and final rule of blog war should be: never get involved in a land war in Asia blog war with a stay at home Mom.  The final numbers are in, and I lost.  The total was 1956 unique visitors for the week for Karli, and 1815 for me.  Thank you [...]

Blog War Update

Well, with the help of my friends in the Digg community, I actually pulled ahead for a brief moment in yesterday’s visitor count.  But then the mob of angry housewives caught wind of it and banded together to push Karli’s numbers up over 400, lengthening her huge lead.  With only 2 days left, I’m running [...]

Can You Hear Me Now?

With my birthday last week, I’m feeling a little more conscious of my age than normal, but this helped. I’m not old yet, because I can still hear this annoying high-pitched sound. Are you old? Try the test and find out. Post a comment if you can hear it, too.
