I’m so good at chalkboard art you guys

here was the Thanksgiving one if you didn’t see it

I’m trying not to be super insane about this but it’s catching up with me: we got home from errands and Callen I think tried to go down the den stairs by himself while I was taking my coat off, and he fell

I heard him crying and was like whaaa wtf and rescued him, he wasn’t hurt but I’m sure it was scary

part of me is like. Glad that this is how he learns the Be Careful With Stairs lesson in that he didn’t get injured but ahhhh it could’ve been so bad. And it was on my watch. And I gotta not spiral about it

my friend's dad accidentally lifted her into a whirling ceiling fan as a baby and she's the smartest person I know. these things happen.

a head clunking normal baby affairs, but still WHEW SCARY glad it's all good

I'm so glad he's ok!! enough stress on both of you

great thanksgiving board

oh no poor Callen & poor Cami!! i have had Moments like that with Bee -- you are NOT a bad mom & clunking around like that is ultimately helpful for them even if it terrifies us as parents

but real facts the first time she took a tumble on stairs i felt horrible the entire day

it’s impossible not to!!!

it really is

HEE HEE HEE

I’m the man Chris deserves

ROOF CAMI

we went to Bellevue and I hate it here but snowflake lane is a hit

oh you did snowflake lane traffic? you ARE a good mom

we already shelled out thirty bucks to reserve a spot to see Santa in two weeks

we’re at a restaurant with friends and there’s a balcony here and you deadass have to pay dollars to walk outside onto the balcony

we already paid to eat dinner but apparently looking out the window is extra. master of the house ass shit

HATE BELLEVUE, love to see yall having a cute tjme

I mean we already knew that but like. why are elections called before we know. why is this how we do things. fuck this

I've begun my transformation into Guy In Infomercial and it all started with the new honey jar that exploded when I opened it just now

I had to clean it off like three entire times and kept missing honey spots that had gotten in random places. it was on the bottoms of my slippers

and then finally I got my tea sorted out and was headed up the stairs. and I tripped on a stair. and spilled tea all over my hand

oh NO

I still have most of my tea. it just. this honey is vengeful

man. you need pre-honey'd mugs or a tea IV, stat.

I'm cranky today and part of it is because I'm mad that I can't shut up

I feel like every time I talk right now I'm being so annoying

find your zen, bitch

god that's so real

i feel this in my bones

(you aren't, though)

neither are you

we're in a fight

exactly

why what could go wrong

No

I just went feral ordering a bunch of secondhand shoes for Callen because it is truly unreal how much toddler shoes actually cost

I am not paying sixty dollars for shit he'll wear for MAYBE a year if we're lucky

if I can find them at all

"for sale: baby shoes, never worn" isn't a hypothetical sad story, it's an outright fantasy

walk into any store in the mall and if you can find a size 4 toddler shoe for under $20 I will kiss you on the mouth

anyway they have dinosaurs on them

jk that's the only pair of new ones I got. for when the weather sucks. which is Always at this time of year

i am also doing toddler boot shopping tonight because it's 20 degrees outside and i'd like her to feel comfortable emerging from the house again sometime before april
