New business on the block…

I’m so excited to announce that I have started a new business as an Independent Beauty Consultant for Mary Kay Cosmetics! I joined on Easter weekend and have been working to set things up over the past 10 days. I’m having my business debut party at my house in a little under 2 [...]

It’s a hard life being a Dosh!

Help! I’m stuck! This Bumbo is going to eat me alive!

Escaping from the bumbo was just too much and he fell asleep eating his spaghetti…

Zzzzzzz…

Yep, he’s a keeper!

It’s our 8th wedding anniversary today and James brought these home for me tonight - 2 dozen red roses! We couldn’t get a babysitter so we could go to dinner tonight, which turned out to be a good thing because I am sick. We did find one for Thursday night though so we [...]

Chicks On Sticks

Doesn’t that sound like the title of a bad porno?

Well, I’m no Bakerella, but I dragged the boys to a baking supply store this morning and tried my hand at cake pops this afternoon. I definitely need more practice with getting the coating smooth and rolling the balls a little more evenly, but [...]

Lazy Sunday Night Dinner…

After an afternoon out and about, culminating in an hour running around at the park, the boys were tired so we did a lazy dinner in front of the tv watching Curious George and Clifford the Big Red Dog. Chicken nuggets with ketchup and fruit cup - dinner of champions.

Lately Josh has [...]

The Stick Adventure!

Today I took the boys for a walk on one of the trails at Carkeek Park. I told them we were on an adventure to find sticks, one of which we could put in the cage for Chicken Nugget and Pom Pom and they were quite excited to go exploring. (Warning: this post [...]

A classic example of “mommy brain”!

Today I loaded Josh into the mom-mobile and we went to pick up Adam from preschool. Upon successful acquisition of the monkey, we headed to Trader Joe’s to restock our supply of organic lollipops. We arrived and found rock star parking, unloaded the troops, and headed in.

It was while we were at the [...]

Sweet and Sour Disaster

Well, I had hoped to post a new recipe tonight, complete with glowing reviews of how yummy it was. I cooked sweet and sour pork for dinner tonight with the above image in my head. I had visions of yumminess in my head that slowly dissipated with every minute that passed in the [...]

James is so compassionate…

This conversation just occurred:
James in the kitchen: Uh oh, this knife seems to have slipped and cut a slice of cake.
Me in the living room: Uh-huh.
James walking into the living room with crumbs on his face: The slice of cake just committed suicide in my mouth!
Me: Well it’s a good thing you were there to [...]

The Rainforest Cafe

Last night we braved the torrential rain and drove to Southcenter to go to the Rainforest Cafe. It is a Rainforest themed restaurant with vines, animatronic animals, aquariums, and various other rain forest type things. Adam absolutely loved it, especially when we were seated under a fake sky complete with shooting stars, planets, and changing [...]
