My baby is all grown up. Today was Chloe’s first day at nursery school and it was amazing to watch her go. There was no trepidation, no nervousness, and there were definitely no tears. In fact, the minute we got to school, she ran inside, never looking back. Eventually, I had to find her so […]

Chloe has come up with some good ones lately:
“Mommy, my nipples are gone!!!”
“I break it good, Mama. Eggs!” (After breaking 5 eggs on the kitchen table and chairs)
“I wanna get outta here to see Cinderella”

“I want belly button on my pizza”
