All, I would like it to be known that tossing a quesadilla in her crib is, truly, how Steve (Just Barely the dad) parented the problem of Addison not going to sleep the other night. Now THAT’s strong parenting.

Yes, you have to parent them. God knows I’d only end up giving them quesadillas in bed.

All I can say is: quite the cast of characters. go for the beer sippy at walmart. people will just think it’s sparkling apple juice, right? and what’s funny is the nightgown, nothing else? This is the only blog I know where the comments are almost as entertaining as the content itself:)

Can you mail her to Wisconsin(COD even). I could use help with cleaning the bedrooms. Does she do bathrooms too? (when my son was really small, I used to tie sponges to his feet, toss soapy water on the floor and let him “skate” in the bathroom….they do an amazing cleaning job Alas at 17, he has figured out that is actaully work. I do have to differ with your tiny domestic diva on one thing. If you can close a closet door, that counts as cleaning.

Indeed, MAKE the pool your friend and go now, to the nearest store. Once there, you go to the food storage /wrap section. GLAD makes these lovely cups with lids that are blue. There is a sippy opening or a straw opening. Perfect for disguising adult beverages to consume at the pool…and it definitely takes the edge off!! You can thank me later, with a cyber cup of Dunkin’!!

No worries Amy! The pool will be our FRIEND!! As long as I can lose enough weight to not be embarrassed in my bathing suit though…
