Neuroses? Brilliance? Who’s to say?
A marble coffee table in a home with a baby and a toddler on the other hand…. Now that’s a Darwinian experiment waiting to happen.

Hey #rhodeisland,
Do any of our libraries have this sort of thing?
I have babies and I’d like to remember what it feels like to hold a book again.
Halp!

Sometimes you have to decide whether to let your toddler write on the marble table with orange crayon or wake up the teething baby from his contact nap.
Sigh.
Thanks for making these things washable, #crayola

Can someone teach me how to buy the correct amount of bananas. I have a terminal degree, am vaguely competent, a fair-to-middling mother, and I can’t for the life of me figure out the right number of bananas to purchase so that they a) don’t all go bad before we can eat them or b) run out of them.

I have a bone to pick with Covid/Flu test designers. “C” apparently stands for “control” and not “Covid” which is represented by, wait for it, the letter “T.”
For a solid 15 minutes I ran around the house like Chicken Little thinking my 2 year old and 4 month old had Tovid.
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️

Told hubs I didn’t want cut flowers (too much work on the flower receiver to tend to water levels, clean up falling petals, dispose of when they wilt. It always makes me sad watching them die)
He heard me and knocked it outta the park with these 3D cardboard flowers! (Brand is #FreshCutPaper)

Hubs and I are in that “passing ships” phase of going from 1 to 2 kids where I’m on baby duty and he’s on toddler patrol.
Our shifts didn’t connect much tonight due to a teething baby but he managed to hide a giant cupcake in my breast pump bag.
It’s a season…And sometimes there’s cupcakes.

Spotted in his natural habitat, the young babe hides among the artificial flora while the mother gathers more.
