A little late but...

I'm taking the week off.

I think.

What I learned on my vacation....

by Hope.

I told you I would share. This is me sharing.



...well they do!


some actual poop here, folks.


???...this was hanging in the restroom.


Haven't you always wanted to know?...then read on.


Pretty fascinating stuff here.

With potty training just around the corner, I'm pretty sure poop will remain a topic of conversation in my future posts.

Happy Friday...shit it's starting to rain....

Half Nekkid Thursday - #22

What is Half-Nekkid Thursday?? Click the link above and visit Osbasso to find out.

I didn't play last week ,and now suddenly I feel the new girl in school. Weird. I don't read directions so if there was a theme or something this week, I'm so not doing it.

Okay, number twenty-two in this crazy ass thing I do, just so I can say I do a crazy ass thing....Twisted like me...



HHNT y'all! Did you get Nekkid?

WBW - Summer, summer, summer...time!

Way Back Wednesday people...time to play that game where The Kept Woman asks us to post embarrassing pictures of ourselves online for all the world to see. I feel like a newbee, it's been so long since I've played.

This weeks theme is:
Happy Summer Solstice!! To celebrate the first official day of summer let's see some summery things...bathing suits, beaches, BBQs, water balloon fights, wet t-shirt contests...you name it!



This one goes way, way back. I'm guessing I was about four or five here. I believe it was taken 'Up to Camp', as the phrase went. My memory is not what it used to be, so where 'Up to Camp' was exactly is a bit unclear. I think it was a summer place one of my Great Aunts had on a lake. What I do remember is being on this boat. I think I must have liked it, and I've actually had a few dreams about it. Everytime I see, what would now be considered a "Vintage" looking motor boat, I have this crazy urge to buy it.

And that, to me, is Summer Time. Did you play?

Hello? Is anyone there?

Hello????

Ah..well. Regardless, I'm back. I just kind of dropped off the face of the blog...I mean the earth for a little while. Another much needed vacation from cyberspace and vinyl doll parts. We didn't actually take a REAL vacation. You know, the kind where you buy a plane ticket and fly to a completely different state with completely different stuff. We just kind of hung out here and took day trips to all the toddler friendly establishments that the beautiful and overpriced south shore has to offer.

Like the Zoo, where we got to feed the llamas (is that spelled right?)



And the little Zooquarium , where we saw more random farm animals, but most importantly fish!!



We also celebrated Baby Jack's Second Birthday over my Hiatus. I know, I know, Birthday number two and this is the first you're hearing of it. I'm a sucky ass blogger mommy. What can I say?



And last but not least, we spent A Day out with Thomas (or Toemash) The Train at Edaville Railroad!



You're jealous aren't you? Yeah, I KNOW you are.

I'll share more about all the exciting things we learned later. For now, it's time to share a little language update.

Now that my baby is a BIG BOY, his vocabulary has expanded quite a bit. Some of our new favorites...

Duh-you-you - W (occasionally comes out duh-you-you-you-you...he just can't stop)
Eck - X

Peek Poo Poo, I see you - I bet you can guess this one

Thomas - Toemash

Yucky, ENUP! - Lucky, ENOUGH! (what I say to the red dog when I've had enough of his barking)

Mmwhaa, KISH - Umm...Mmwhaa, KISS

Fesh Fie - French Frie

Mommy, yook!..ooo dat?- Mommy, Look! who's that?

...just a few.

The cuteness kills me.

Half-Nekkid Thursday #21

What is Half-Nekkid Thursday?? Click the link above and visit Osbasso to find out.

Twenty one weeks of half-nekkidness! Whew...where does the time go? Maybe it's hanging out somewhere with my breasts.

The one and only drawback to losing weight...I will inevitably lose whatever boob I have (not that it was much, mind you). There is no getting around it. So this week, I propose a toast...to losing my boobs! I'm trying the whole "accept the things I can not change" approach. So here we have...

#20 in my half-nekkid journey....Small Packages in Aqua...



My foot, btw, is swollen, not yet bruised, and painful. I considered showing my laceration for today's pic but decided some tiny cleavage was a bit more cheerful for HNT. I'll save my scars and wounds for another day. Happy HNT all!
