Skyler

  • Making messes & whatnot

    Last weekend Ronnie & his mom’s boyfriend replaced our kitchen window with a sliding glass door. We even got the kind with mini-blinds between the glass panels, so it stays nice and clean and detangled. But they made a big mess first, which we are still cleaning up – saw dust gets everywhere! I forgot…

  • Spongebob

    Skyler has been getting more interested in what’s on the TV lately. Sometimes she likes to site with me and watch for a few minutes. Though some would argue that TV is bad for children, I am actually trying to influence my daughter to find the TV interesting and get to the point of watching…

  • Poor Me

    Even after the previous post of listing all the fun things I have to look forward to in the next few months, I find myself having PMS, or Poor Me Syndrome. Sure, it probably also coincides with the original meaning of the acronym PMS, but this week I’m especially feeling sorry for myself. It’s just…

  • Where do I start?

    Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with all the possible posts I could be making! Again, this would be a fantastic time for someone to hurry up and invent the wireless-automatic-blog-publisher thingy so I could blog hands-free throughout the week, or at least get some posts drafted. First, I haven’t officially posted an announcement for fear…

  • Amends

    Ronnie reads the blog regularly. Last night he didn’t outright say he read the last post, but throughout the evening he randomly quoted my sarcasm as it was written. Things like “I should get some new socks; mine are getting kind of holey” and “Don’t talk to me while I’m watching this. Ok, it’s a…

  • Walker Texas Ranger

    That’s what we call Skyler now! Here I caught her walking around the living room. She ran right into me, and then discovered the camera was running. I love the look she gives the camera at the end!

  • Digital Mom

    I guess that is the new term for my demographic. It was a feature on the Today’s Show earlier this week, and they even had one of the funny mommy bloggers that I recently started following. It’s kind of exciting to have an official classification like this, because I always just thought I was geekier…

  • Quirky

    It doesn’t take much to entertain Skyler. Whether it’s tearing something up, playing with any sort of container (big or small), or pushing her walker around the house, this girl is always busy! And one of her adorable little quirks is her love for accessories. She loves to wear hats, sunglasses, headbands, bibs, bracelets, and…

  • Evidence

    I’ve mentioned Skyler’s increased mobility several times lately, so here are the videos of evidence (and cuteness!). 1. She loves her walker! What’s even better is dancing while walking… 2. She can stand up by herself. She used to like to do it in front of a mirror/reflective surface so she could watch her progress.…

  • “1, 2, 3, 4…”

    “…Get your booty on the floor, gotta gotta gotta get up get down…” This could be Skyler’s song right now. Last night she stood up by herself and then took 4 steps before falling back down on her booty! So Ronnie and I sat on the floor with her and “passed” her back and forth.…
