Charlie's Bookshelf: November 2011
http://civbooks.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Overthinking kids' picture books since 2010 (barely). Sunday, November 27, 2011. Charlie is still into his bike and coloring books. Is one of the first books I've found that fits the bill perfectly. I bought this at least a year ago, because it is always featured prominently at bookstores. But back then, it was much too wordy for Charlie and he couldn't pay attention through the whole thing. Now, at age three years and three months, it's just perfect. Posted by Hanah Metchis Volokh. Best for 2-3 Years.

Charlie's Bookshelf: Best for Under 18 Months
http://civbooks.blogspot.com/p/best-for-under-18-months.html
Overthinking kids' picture books since 2010 (barely). Best for Under 18 Months. Here are my highest-recommended books for infants and toddlers under 18 months. At this age, the most interesting and useful books are those with photographs or highly realistic drawings of things the child encounters in daily life. Beginning to learn about vocabulary, shapes, colors, and emotions is important. My Little Word Book. Gyo Fujikawa's A to Z Picture Book. Blue Hat, Green Hat. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Charlie's Bookshelf: April 2011
http://civbooks.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Overthinking kids' picture books since 2010 (barely). Thursday, April 28, 2011. Cat Up a Tree. We found Cat Up a Tree. At the library this week, and I like it so much I might buy a copy. Charlie and I have both enjoyed it very much. By this time, there are five cats stuck in the tree, so the old woman tries calling the police station. They won't help either. More cats show up. She calls the zoo. They don't catch cats. And so on, and so on, and so on. Look up for Falling Cats.". There's a nice little coda...

PrimalMama: August 2010
http://primalmommy.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
I am a wife, mother of two, and a CareerMama. Tuesday, August 31, 2010. These were quite yummy, and would be great paired with some. Tahini, or a cucumber and yogurt sauce. My 1 1/2 year old didn't care for the texture but my 4 year old asked for seconds. Grilled and sprinkled with some fresh lemon juice, this is a go-to dish for those nights when I'm not sure what to make for dinner. Friday, August 27, 2010. Pulled Pork Shoulder With Homemade BBQ Sauce. Thursday, August 26, 2010. Tuesday, August 24, 2010.

Proudly Selfish: July 2010
http://proudlyselfish.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 18, 2010. There is a lot of iPhone 4 hatred out there. Apple has recently come under a lot of fire for antenna performance, lack of so called 4G (actually 3.9G LTE. Let's examine the first criticism objectively in this post and I'll address the others in upcoming posts. First a comedic interlude. So what is really going on with these antenna issues? Has a great illustration of the difference between what iOS reported in 4.0 to 4.0.1. Compressed bar range out of any smartphone. The second iss...

Different Brilliant Colors: Your Childcare Provider is not out to rip you off.
http://differentbrilliantcolors.blogspot.com/2011/05/your-childcare-provider-is-not-out-to.html
Wednesday, May 11, 2011. Your Childcare Provider is not out to rip you off. You must make SO MUCH MONEY! Um… OK… aside from just being plain old tacky and rude to say such a thing, the very idea that any childcare provider makes “SO MUCH MONEY! 8221; is utterly absurd. I was so taken aback by her comment, that I could do little but just say something about how my rates were fairly standard, and uh… well, there are a lot of expenses involved. And so on, and so on. Welcome to my little blog! For us, homesc...

Different Brilliant Colors: May 2010

Monday, May 3, 2010. Adventures with Five Kids. This past week, my partner's kids were visiting for their spring vacation, so I had a couple of extra kids around the house! It was great fun! I love it when we have the whole crew together. Happy chaos! Unlike when they were here on their February vacation, the weather was lovely during their visit! Outside the National Heritage Museum in Lexington, Checking out a big fallen tree at Breakheart, and riding scooters in the skate park at Ipswich River Park.

Different Brilliant Colors: July 2010
http://differentbrilliantcolors.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 11, 2010. Mom vs. The Insurance Company. I’ve spent the better part of the last two weeks on the phone. Mostly, I have been on the phone with various neuropsychology and developmental specialists offices and my insurance company, having pretty much the same conversation, over and over. For those of you who have been following our adventures with Harry. I also know of a special education advocate, however I don’t think I can afford her (back to money, once again.).
