The Pages of Our Crazy Life: December 2009
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. Looking Back (12 months of photos). Remembering the year through photos. It was a hard year, but in so many ways, a very good year. We enjoyed one of our favorite beach spots. George learned to sit (fairly) still at the barbershop like a big boy. Emma was having a rough school year, but growing so much as a person. Thomas Live caused George to nearly explode with joy. The kids went on their first train ride. More trips to the beach. For the first time. Pieces of home, far away.

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: (It's no longer Sock Love Thursday)
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2010/06/its-no-longer-sock-love-thursday.html
Saturday, June 05, 2010. It's no longer Sock Love Thursday). Let's see now, it's June. Huh. And I've updated all of twice this year. Sorry about that. Winter was hard this year. I had to step away from the computer a bit and instead of writing about life, I tried to actually, you know, live it. Exercise, keeping the kids busy, getting my health back on track (Did you know that six months of snacking and eating nothing fresh will pack on the pounds? How exactly have we spent the last five months? Glad to ...

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: July 2009
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2009. Party Hats and Cupcakes. Monday, July 20, 2009. I would love to rhapsodize about our adventures outdoors. Wherein we take vigorous nature hikes, gathering roots and unusual fauna to later research and sketch. Our conversations of spirituality and cosmic space. Our snacks of berries we pick ourselves, paired with local cheeses and fresh spring water. Our days spent painting. Those blobs of blue on his paper are actually the North Pole. He's a genius, I think. Sunday, July 19, 2009.

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: May 2009
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 25, 2009. Sunday, May 24, 2009. To be fair, we had a lovely day at the coast today, and I believe that exhaustion played a large part in the dissolution of our evening. Friday, May 22, 2009. I just got off the phone with my mom, she was wondering if we were coming over for dinner tonight. While the wine she offered sounded great, I'm thinking we probably won't. We're busy at the Spa A'la Boy Child. Tuesday, May 12, 2009. Sentence of the Day. Daddy Doll courtesy of Operation Give a Hug. What h...

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: February 2010
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 05, 2010. From the time he was born, George has always loved textures. Anything soft gets taken immediately to his cheek, where it is lovingly rubbed. Usually, George likes to share his soft things and brings them to me to rub against my cheek. His voice goes into a higher range than usual as he exclaims, "Feel it, Mom. It's so soooooft, ahhhhhh! Imagine my delight when he decided the dirty socks from last night's hockey practice were today's soft thing. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: October 2009
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 26, 2009. Early school mornings often look like this these days. Laying in front of the floor heater vent, breakfast within reach, minimal lighting. George has always been a morning person (versus Emma's night owl behavior), so seeing him so sleepy and cuddly is precious to me. It only takes about 15 minutes though and then he's up and running (literally), playing, eating, jabbering, the usual. No one will ever convince me that my children aren't brilliant. Both of them. Yeah so, today I ...

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: August 2009
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 30, 2009. I'm not a big fan of teeth. I like them for the purpose they serve, but the whole falling out and leaving bloody gums in their wake? Yeah, not so much. Yesterday, as I helped George get ready for bed, I reminded Emma that it was time to do her chores. "Just a minute, Mom, I'm going to pull my tooth out! Oh yuck. I quickly left the room and sure enough, by the time I came back, she had a bloody tissue in her mouth and a tooth in her hand. Blech. I'll be. Saturday, August 29, 2009.

The Pages of Our Crazy Life: September 2009
http://thepagesofourcrazylife.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 27, 2009. It is inevitable that a group of moms, gathered together in the late hours of an evening, are going to talk about their kids. It is also inevitable that a group of moms who all have kids with Autism are going to talk about their experiences with Autism. With our NT kids. We compared melt-downs, discussed sensitivities, commisserated about difficult social situations. Sounds familiar, right? How to live with Autism. Autism has become our normal. So the new challenge is to learn...
