This is a real thing. Fisher Price really wants kids to celebrate using the bathroom. Not only is this an amazing product, but that hostess’ accent might be able to convince me to buy just about anything. So I can laugh at the silly song when we pour water, but I don’t laugh at the…

20 Ways to Celebrate Without Money or Food
I’m on a diet. And a budget. So sometimes I think celebrating is pretty much out! I can’t get dessert or buy a new dress or drive to the beach without cutting back somewhere else. But I’m determined to celebrate in life. I thought this might be a problem until I quickly listed at 20 ways…
Workout Secrets
Want the secret to the best work out secret ever? I’ve got it right here! Ninety seconds of core strengthening, planking, trunk rotation, scapular stability and the cutest work out partner ever. A four month old. One dad recorded working out with his daughter and it makes my heart happy. Not only to see a…
Give the World a Reason to Dance
I have recently been introduced to a world changer. He’s powerful, influential, brilliant… and eight years old. He goes by the name Kid President and has a dream, to make the world a nicer place. To fill it with hope and encouragement and lots and lots of dancing. He understands that life isn’t always happy.…
The Olympics
I love the Olympics. It’s the ultimate human interest story. I watch as much as I can. It is an odd juxtaposition that the arrival of the Olympics typically finds me on the couch eating Nutella out of the bottle watching feats of athletic prowess — and slowly growing further away from being able to…
Elephantine Ineptitude
I consider myself a crafty person — in all senses of the word. But recently I was upstaged. Bamboozled. Perplexed. By an iron on elephant. A friend of mine, Sierra, commended offhandedly that she would love to have an elephant. (I believe this was after taking her nephews to the circus as she does not…
Tears of Overconfidence
My lunch made me cry. We’re talking, all out –tears streaming down my face, snot escaping from my nose, unable to see through the haze — cry. I saw the sign. It had “HOT” stamped across the box, but my eyes were drawn more to the “Clearance” sticker and thought I’d take a stab at…
Giggling with Gaston
I was awkwardly hit on last week. By a guy who was tall, dark and handsome, with bulging biceps, and long flowing locks. Oh yeah, and he was fictional. Did I fail to mention that? I met Gaston at the Magic Kingdom last week with my friend Nathan. Gaston was fully in character — strutting…
Cheeky, Cheeky
Cheeky, Cheeky Lives up to his name. Cheeky, Cheeky Enjoys Christmas games. Cheeky, Cheeky Hides in tight spaces. Cheeky, Cheeky Moves without traces! Here’s a loving look at Cheeky’s shenanigans this Christmas. Cheeky hangs around, lolligagging. Watching us from up above ( and getting dusty!) He learned about Physics… And then practiced feats…
My ACTUAL Christmas Update :)
Last year I bemoaned the fact that my life is in many ways unchanging. I worked at the same job, lived in the same house, and had my well-worn routines in life. No longer. I have coined 2013 as “the year of adulthood” for me. I find myself repeatedly asking, “What would an adult do?”…
