This is an Equal Opportunity Blog

April 24, 2009 by Elaine

I kinda feel like it’s been “The Little G” show around here lately so I thought I would give The B Man some equal time. Because he’s pretty darn cute himself you know… A few weeks ago I gave him the little interview that’s gone around many a blog in the last few weeks and…

We Like to Live on the Wild Side

March 16, 2009 by Elaine

We’d planned a trip to Austin this weekend to see my pal Lisa but because I haven’t been feeling that well lately I pulled the plug on that idea and we stayed home. By the way, I promise to stop whining about how badly I’m feeling. Please don’t leave because of my complaining. It’s just…

Why it’s Good to do Your Kegels

March 5, 2009 by Elaine

One night last week I had the chance to go out for a ladies night and see “He’s Just Not That Into You.” And let me just say right now that Jennifer Aniston and Ben Affleck actually make a cute couple. And Ginnifer Goodwin was just as adorable as she could be. (side note: did…

I Heart Faces – Messy Face

March 3, 2009 by Elaine

This week I am entering a photo for the photo contest at i heart faces for the first time!

He Really “Nose” How to Pick ‘Em!

February 6, 2009 by Elaine

I spend quite a bit of time telling this child to take his finger out of his nose (he always uses the same one…). Sometimes I just ignore it. I see it while he’s getting a diaper change or in the middle of his play time. I frequently see it in the rear view mirror…

My good pal Supermommy @ Three Boys One Mommy decided it would be a good idea to peek into some of our medicine cabinets. (BTW, I KNOW we are good pals because we are friends on Facebook. So there.) After I was done blog-hopping, twittering and checking email the night after I saw her post,…
