You guys! I have this merchandise credit for a store called Crazy 8. My mom had gotten Hudson some stuff there that didn’t fit & she gave me the credit when she returned the stuff for me. Anyways, you can’t use the credit online & I am never gonna get to the store because it’s [...]

Shoes.

First: You should watch this video while reading this post because it’s hilarious. Ohhhhhh Kelly! This is an oldie but goodie for sure. “These shoes are $300 These shoes are $300 These shoes are 300-fucking-dollars Let’s get em’.” OK- Now that you’ve laughed your ass off. My sister-in-law Sarah & I have basically spent much [...]

Death.

Confession: When I can’t get ahold of someone I love on the phone. When they travel on planes. Or by car at night. When my husband hasn’t called me 12 times and it’s like 11AM. (Yes, we talk that much.) I panic. Then? I write eulogies IN MY HEAD. That’s gotta be the weirdest thing [...]

Ummm, so the last few weeks I’ve been putting some great songs on here taht I love & Adriana keeps beating me to the punch! Today? She mentioned Jeff Buckley in her 9 month post to her sweet Hendrix & then? I knew who I needed to share with the interwebz today. (Obviously this divorce [...]

You guys?? It’s Hudson’s un-birthday today. As in, ONE YEAR AGO he was only a 6 month old baby boy. He was TINY. And now? That little guy who brought me joy is a BIG boy who brings me so much joy. He spent the weekend with my mother because A. Nonnie & Papa are [...]

I wish we were Swedish.

Like, seriously. All the coolest things are from Sweden. or The Netherlands. Denmark. Hans Wegner? My Svan highchair? The Naef toys we covet? The Baekfiets we plan to save for. SWEDISH. FISH. I could also argue the fact that I still love Nina from The Cardigans even if their commercial success with Lovefool kinda makes [...]

I’m feeling old school.

Here’s a few classics for you. My next parenting mission? Teaching Hudson the correct times in a punk song to air punch. As Kelsey says: “it’s an artform.” These are a few of my favorite (of this genre) songs- mostly from my youth, although Bear vs. Shark I discovered after high school thanks to my [...]

Sometimes, you need to complain.

Emmie Bee — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 07:10:30 +0000

So, I’m going to interrupt your regularly scheduled happiness & tell you I sometimes kinda HATE the difference in the amount of parenting I do compared to Scott. I mean don’t get me wrong. I appreciate all the help he gives me. But yeah. I especially get offended because the twins go down around 9PM [...]

Why I quit the top lists:

Emmie Bee — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 19:51:36 +0000

I went from obsessively begging for votes to not saying anything but placing the click bar in every post to just putting the vote buttons in my side bar. And now? As of today I have QUIT the top lists. Because EVERY blogger- me included have said they didn’t want to have to campaign for [...]

Seriously one of the best days of my life even though it was about 8 months BEFORE I was born. Because HELLLLLLLO It’s Krust’s birthday today!! …And I happen to think this is about the cutest picture EVER. Krust, for those of you who don’t know- is my husband’s younger sister. But, aside from that, [...]
