About 30 seconds after this picture was taken there was more puke then while I was getting a new washcloth she sauntered down the hallway and I said, “hey! What are you doing out of the bathroom?” She shrugged and said, “I’m done!” and climbed into bed. We’ll see how this goes …
Librarian Pirate
Books, babies (well, a toddler and a kid but that isn't alliterative!), social justice (throwing alliteration completely out the door), general geekery (welcome back! Although it's a cheating sort of alliteration with the hard g following the soft g), and random wildness.Missing Colorado's mountains but loving Chicagoland.

Anonymous asked: You're such a lovely mother. You make it look so easy, though I know it's not. I would like to have kids, but knowing of nights like the one you're currently having have always scared me off. Your adorable family and mad parenting skills make it seem so much more than worth it, though. So thanks. :)
Oh, thank you! We’re at almost 45 minutes with no tragedies and the Pips is asleep so I’m thinking I might go to sleep myself. You just made my night leaps and bounds better.
Glance at the clock, it’d been 14 minutes, I made sure the bucket was empty and ready
Less than 60 seconds later?
Figuring out the 15 minute thing’s gonna make my night better.
Evolution made ‘em cute just for nights like this.
It's only funny because I'm horrible
- Pips: (head in the toilet, screaming something)
- LP: what did you say, sweetheart?
- P: I WANT SOMETHING TO EAT! (pause, puke, scream, puke)
- Yeah, how about no?
At what point do I say “fuck it” and leave her in the bath all night?
We’ve puked through 4 pairs of pajamas (3 hers, 1 mine) and even turning on Labyrinth (my sure fire sick cure) didn’t help. But then again, we didn’t even get to David Bowie and I have long suspected that the Goblin King’s magic is what cured everything.
Tonight in irresponsible (drunk) purchases.
WHATEVA they’re $1 each and they have NAIL ART BRUSHES!
And I do this so often that I even count my pirate hat as regular wear.
I am a walking stereotype
At a birthday party. Pips liked the cake.

My 3-year old wanted to be Green Lantern for Halloween, and her younger sister was Batman.

Pippa got a purple shatter in her stocking and today she wanted purple and pink nails so we tried it out.
