After sending the eldest kidlet off to school on the bus, I snuggled on the couch next to the middle kidlet.  The Youngest kidlet didn't want to be left out, so she bounced on us, which made the middle kidlet upset.  I was so, so sleepy.  I put my head…

1.  On St. Patricks Day (referred to as "St. Pendrick's Day" by Mr. Sneaky Pants) Dr. Peds made grass green pancakes for breakfast, along with green milk.  Mr. SP was so excited to tell his teacher at preschool about his green breakfast that he nearly molted out of his skin.…

On Monday afternoon  I shooed everyone out of the house after school, knowing that we were about to get a snowstorm followed by a cold snap for the next few days.  We went on a "Making Things Bigger Walk" down the block and up the super secret staircase and sidewalk…
