I'll preface this by saying Jamie is who he is, doesn't try to be someone else for anyone else. And I love that about him. That said...

Edgy New Yorker to hick in 3 years. Say what? Is there a physiological change in testosterone levels when a guy drives a pick-up truck? Imagine an addiction to testosterone so much so that one would go from needing a pick-up, as one tends to when maintaining a log home set on 5 acres of forest in New Hampshire to "needing" one - a bigger one, mind you - in the city of Tacoma, WA when the lawn is manicured and the need for a pick-up goes as far as hauling around a double BOB stroller (which I will admit is quite large but fits in the back of just about anything with a few clever adjustments). Oh, well I guess the truck also hauls around two-year-old twin boys and a cockapoo. Hmm, I think we may need a one-ton truck after all.

Sorry polar bears, but my guy has to have his half-ton, fuel-inefficient, extreme carbon producing but oh-so-necessary pick-up truck.

Marshmallows for Breakfast

What defines a good mom? I really hope feeding my kids marshmallows ("just 2, mama!!") for breakfast is a good indication that I am on the right track of being a fantastic, well-suited, responsible mom after all the teeth that they have now are temporary, right??!!

Zeb poops

Well Zeb has done it, yes for the first time he has "pooped" in the potty. "Pooped" the actual meaning is to go pee. And is his first date with the "potty" (which is a word I despise therefore it will be referred to as toilet even if it really wasn't the toilet) canceled out when minutes later after a bath he pees on the floor right next to the toilet, yes literally 4 inches from the toilet. I don't know it sort of discredits any movement he made on the toilet. We are not actively training them but the time may have come to have target practice!!
