Happy Sunday! I’m up at the lake house with my parents, watching my father obsess over if/when the weather is going to be nice enough for us to take the sailboat out for the year. Right now, it is pouring rain, so NO.
Continue readingSometimes you just have to start the day with a cute dog photo.
Continue readingI was gonna just put up a comment with all the answers on the original post, but I thought this would be more fun. Original post here: A New Game! Nephew or Albie Dog???
Continue readingMy nephew is 2 years old, and Albie Dog is 3 years old, and apparently they are exactly lined up. Don’t know how long this will last, presumably at some point my nephew will get smarter than a dog, or my Albie Dog will get less energetic than a 2 year old human. But right now, perfection!
Continue readingHAPPY BIRTHDAY NEPHEW!!!!!!! He is so BIG now! Like, he’s a little boy, not a little baby or even a toddler. Long legs and coordination and ability to form 3 word sentences. AMAZING.
Continue readingSister, you can read or not read this post. I leave it up to you. Just don’t read it out loud to Nephew and spoil the surprise. Also, I don’t care that you don’t want things that beep or bang or make a mess, IT’S HIS DAY!!!! I WANT TO BE THE FAVORITE AUNT!!!!
Continue readingAs more and more of us are joining the world again, I thought I should help by passing on the wisdom I myself have learned from my nephew.
Continue readingI woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, that’s all. My hair is tangled and I can’t find a thing to fasten the end of my braid, so I can’t braid it and it is just going to keep getting tangled. And I started my work day by talking to my LEAST FAVORITE customer. On chat not on the phone, but still bad. And Albie Dog’s Adopt-a-versary gifts are delayed in shipping, so he won’t have any presents on the day itself. Oh, and worst of all, last night’s Columbo episode wasn’t very good. So, time to talk about babies and be happy!
Continue readingHappy post! Mostly because I have a really cute photo of both Albie Dog and Nephew, so I thought I should share.
Continue readingNot a very challenging day, here in DCIB land. Shashi and Shahrukh, dog photos, and probably other happy stuff once I think of it.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I was beginning to feel moss growing on me, so I decided to do a long meandering drive today. Just to shake out the cobwebs. That’s my big plan for the day, fun fun!
Continue readingLook at that! One year and a day ago, I was on the phone with my sister watching a movie together and timing contractions. And now we’ve got this kid with a million teeth in his mouth and opinions about beets.
Continue readingRemember I said yesterday I was leaving town but it was for a good reason? I get to go to a gravesite service with my Mom and my Uncle and the minister in a snowstorm at a cemetery by the side of the Mississippi river. Like we’re in a graphic novel or something.
Continue readingSorry, not a lot of film news small talk. But lots of Margaret news small talk! My nephew is in town again, and we have done lots of things.
Continue readingI didn’t break him or anything! It was very exciting. Albie Dog had an accident in the hall from all the stress.
Continue readingMy nephew is not the most happy little guy in the universe. I am not a good enough aunt to actually visit him and take my turn going “bubba bubba bubba” until he stops crying. But I am a good enough aunt to give him blog posts!
Continue readingI have a cute photo and a less cute story, so you can hear one and then be rewarded with the other. Also, Dogs > Babies.
