Skeleton Caves




Yesterday the lovely Frances and family invited the kids and I to an outdoor adventure at the Skeleton Caves. Unfortunately the caves don't open till tomorrow but that didn't stop us from having fun! There was a smaller side cave for us to explore and acres and acres of wilderness for the kids to play in. It was such a blast spending time outside in nature! If only that nature didn't follow us home in the form of buckets of dirt in our shoes.....

One Schmart Cookee

Raegan has recently had a tv/dvd moved into her room. She hasn't been napping so we thought a 2 hour tv time/quiet period would suffice. Give her a chance to unwind and relax for a few.

Raegan is smart.

Very, Very smart.

We put a plexiglass panel over the bottom of the TV so that all the buttons, etc were covered. You have to use the remote ( with it's thousands of little buttons) to do anything as ALL buttons are covered.

Today, I put her in her room for quiet time with Spirit, Stallion of the Cimmaron on the TV. I put the remote on top of the TV.

When I came in to let her know that quiet time was over I found her room a disaster, her body nekkid, her pot-pot FULL of pee, and ELMO Potty time playing on the DVD player. Remote back on top of the TV.

From what I can gather from the evidence, she pushed her tricycle into her closet and got the pot-pot off of it's shelf.
She opened the drawers on her dresser to create a staircase to the top of the TV where she got the remote. She also retrieved the ELMO DVD from the top of said TV. She swapped out the movies (**WITH THE REMOTE... THOUSANDS OF LITTLE BUTTONS... DIFFICULT FOR MOM TO OPERATE**) put the remote back, stripped down, and spent her 2 hours of quiet time re-playing the potty movie as she filled up the pot pot.

My God, that girl is SMART!

Oh So Tired




The wee little Man, OH so tired! He never sleeps anywhere other then his crib ( or my bed) so to have him pass out on the floor really speaks to how tired he was! Cute little bed bug............

Tricks and Teases for your Bits and Pieces

Well ladies, it's that time of year again. Time to throw modesty to the wind and parade your parts for all to see. Wobbily and dangly though they may be. Yep, it's SPRING! and Bikini Season is on us!
In celebration of this most vulgar of all seasons, I have a few tips and tricks to keep the naughty bits a scotch more appealing. After all, I ( as well as any other water lovin' desert dweller) will probably be seeing them at some point this season. Today's lesson is on the basics. The fundamentals. The area that makes this season what it is.

The bikini area.

First off, PLEASE DO SHAVE. PLEASE.

Now that that is behind us, lets move on. Shaving protocol:
USE a shaving foam or, better, baby oil to tackle this foresty tangle of follicles.
Shave WITH the grain.
When finished with your bathing routine, after drying off but BEFORE putting on any type of moisturizer, dig in the back of your vanity drawer and pull out your deodorant. I prefer to keep a separate stick for this purpose, and I prefer a gel.
NOW, apply your deodorant of choice to said freshly-shaved bikini area. Yep, you heard me. Pu-Nani Deodorant. Why? For some reason the deodorant completely stops any and all ingrown hairs, shaving bumps, or other unsightly mess that may be visible on the outside of your (i'm sure) uber-flattering swimming costume.
Follow with your moisturizer of choice, then get dressed.
I'll admit, when I heard this bit of advice I poo-poo'd the whole idea. Deodorant? On my Girly Parts? You MUST be joking.

Then I tried it.

I shaved every day for 2 weeks, with the SAME razor. I slapped some Ladies Mitchum Gel ( Gotta LOVE that Mitchum!) on after each shave and I gotta say, I have NEVER, EVER, in the whole of my EXISTENCE, had a softer, more natural, hair and bump free crotch.

Just so you know.


SO, your first tip to surviving the upcoming mostly-nekkid-but-apparently-that's-ok season is to deodorize.

Try it. I think you'll be surprised!

Raegans Tassle -Castle





She was quite proud of herself building this tall tower. I showed her how to stack them and she just took over, making her very own "Pretty Princess Tassle" "Wook, Mama, a TASSLE!"
