Not Me! Monday – Desk of My Own

January 25, 2010

This is not my desk. I am a very organized person, I would never let my desk get to such a state. Okay, I admit, this was my desk — I have subsequently cleaned up my act. This is where all the magic happens. This tiny desk is where I think of the next clever [...]

Not Me! Monday — Angel in a Fish Tent

January 11, 2010

I did not forget to set the alarm clock and slept an extra hour this morning. No, that wasn’t me scrambling to get L out of bed, getting myself together, making a quick lunch for L and dressing him. I should feel refreshed after seven hours of consecutive sleep, shouldn’t I? Uh, read on . [...]

Not Me! Monday — Blue Cupcakes and Snow

January 4, 2010

I did not bake these unhealthy cupcakes with Landon and his cousins the other day. I would never feed my child refined sugar, bleached flour, hydrogenated oil, a stick of butter, and blue #1. Just ignore the cute pictures and the video that appeared here a few days ago. That was not me who posted [...]

Not Me! Monday — 200 Pictures and Not One With the Christmas Tree

December 28, 2009

I did not take over 200 pictures at the Bleasdale Clan Christmas party, so many that my family members begged me to PUT THAT CAMERA DOWN! and forgot the most important one — the one of Don and Landon and me in front of Lisa’s huge, beautiful tree. We have a picture of that every [...]

Our Fake Christmas Tree 2009

December 20, 2009

As always, I was going to buy a real Christmas tree this year, but I ended up with a fake one. Why? Because frugal me saw the price on the kind of tree I wanted — medium height, thick branches, preferably in a pot so I don’t have to buy a stand and can plant [...]

First Snow and the Perfect Gift

December 12, 2009

A few days ago we woke up to a few inches of snow! I got some nice pictures of Landon enjoying it. Now that he is three he seemed to be even more exited about the first snow of the season. Oops! Almost ate it. I just have time for a quick update: Sorry I [...]

Not Me! Monday — Hair-Raising!

December 7, 2009

I did NOT scratch Landon with my fingernail under his eye. See? We were playing on the bed (which is much too high, thanks to my darling husband, take a look at this post) and somehow some of L’s skin got caught under my fingernail. I thought I had scratched his eye! To my relief, [...]

The Joy of Raising a Bilingual Child

November 20, 2009

SMILE! Not, not like that! Aww, now I felt bad for having said something… Raising Landon to be bilingual in English and German is proving to be more of a challenge to accomplish than I thought. All you bilingual parents will understand what I am talking about, and I will go into more detail about [...]

Not Me! Monday — Crazy Jeans and Posing With Pumpkins

October 26, 2009

I love McKMama‘s Not Me! Monday’s so much, I now catch myself thinking, “Oh, I should be using this for Not Me! Monday!” when I am doing something very un-Lady/Mommy-like. So here it goes for this week: I do NOT still wear the same pants I went to bed in. I put them on last [...]

Not Me! Monday — Nursing in the Bathroom

October 19, 2009

A quick Not Me! Monday: – I am NOT writing this when I should be doing paperwork, work on another post for NYC Moms Blog, and go to the bank. – I am NOT bribing Landon with getting a (vitamin) gummy bear to finally get him to pee in the toilet. He does his big [...]

After I had a lot of fun posting my first Not Me! Monday entry a few weeks ago, a blog carnival created by MckMama, here is my second entry. You can head over to her blog to read what we all have not been doing this week. I did NOT say to Landon, “Cool! Go [...]
