So beautiful, all of it.

It's working about as well as you might expect, which is to say - NOT AT ALL. Holy shit. It's a four minute drive home from preschool, and in that time my kid manages to ask 453 times if he can watch a show when we get home.

I just have to make sure it's one that I don't like. I even tossed our Goodwill donations into one, rather than a trash bag like I usually do.

I also wondered how many gifts I'm going to owe his teacher at the end of the year.

It was cold and raining this time last week. I can NEVER put away the summer clothes because you never know what you're going to get. I need to have access to clothes for cold and rainy and hot, sunny and beachy. I know there are worse problems to have, but the closets are out of control.

I just choked on Halloween M&M's.

That's after they sit on my washing machine (The repository for all things of questionable use) for a couple of weeks, of course.

I'm DYING over here. I would have died laughing at the car incident also. My husband slipped and fell in the bathroom once, and sliced open his finger. I had to hold back snorts of laughter the entire time I was bandaging him up. It's FUNNY when people fall.

I added Intense Debate to my blog then removed it the next day. I just want a way to directly email a response to someone's comment and if they don't sign up to subscribe to replies then they're probably not going to see it. Why Blogger doesn't just have a simple name/email/url form I'll never understand.

I figured out what it meant, but it still annoys me that I get an email from the same person daily that has multiple "J"s. Big fat L to that.

I've patiently waiting for the day I can buy it for the baby girl, because I believe the food slicing ship has sailed for the three year old.

I can relate as I have a sick three month old. The breastfeeding immunity is no match for the preschool germs.

So really, you didn't miss much. I have my first preschool back to school night this week and I am inordinately excited about it. I'll be inconsolable by the time my kids are in elementary school.

I always forget before we leave the house, so I'm standing in the preschool parking lot, smearing sunscreen all over his face, left with sticky hands and nowhere to wash them.

Love that kid.

My husband is a great father, and hates when people say that he's babysitting, but yes, yes, YES! I went to book club the other night and left the two kids with him. The other moms commented how nice it was that he was home with the kids. WHO WERE BOTH SLEEPING! Yes, how nice of him to stay at home with his own children. Yes, one of them is only three months old, but she's his child!

With the Quinn-sock thing. Did that really happen? Gross. Also: Hilarious.
