Hippos and Jeeps: July 2010
http://hipposandjeeps.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 28, 2010. 25 Things I Know Now as a Parent. Through some of my usual blog-stalking, I came across THIS. Post, and decided to create my own list. So here goes:. It's okay if you admit to your kids that you don't know something. Half the fun of that is getting to look up the answer together. Never underestimate what your children will remember. Create the mood for your family. If you stay calm and positive, chances are your whole home will be, too. Sometimes love really is all you need.

Hippos and Jeeps: May 2009
http://hipposandjeeps.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 19, 2009. Last night was our first taste of this year's summer monsoon/storm season to come. I'll let you decide if the 'Fury' part refers to the storm itself or to us by the end of the night. Lightning begins, with some distant thunder. On the phone with my sister wishing her a happy birthday. 'Oh, there's lightning outside. Oh, it's kinda cool. Big streaks across the sky. Yeah, but it's still, like, 103 degrees out here at 9:30 at night.'. 30 seconds later) Hear a huge 'BANG! Another 30 se...

Hippos and Jeeps: Heavy Hearts
http://hipposandjeeps.blogspot.com/2011/10/heavy-hearts.html
Saturday, October 29, 2011. Today we mourn the death of Glendale Police Officer Bradley Jones. He was killed in the line of duty last night. Although he was not with the same agency as E, they had done some brief work together, and the area where he was killed butts up against E's normal work area. Rest in peace, Ofc. Brad Jones. You are a hero. You will be missed. Http:/ www.kpho.com/story/15903464/officer-involved-shooting-in-glendale. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Friday, September 10, 2010. Flashback Friday: The Friday Nights That Started It All. I'm actually bummed that I've missed the last few Flashback Fridays, but this one will make up for it, I think! Something was brought to mind this week that really made me smile, caused me to think back, and then smile some more. Don't you love those memories that are so good and so fun and such a joy to, well, remember? So this is one of my favorites. Here goes. By the way, that's not the only cool thing that happened a...

Wednesday, January 27, 2010. Flashback #3 - Have You Seen 'Riverdance'? And do you know if they're hiring? I have a pretty good applicant if they are. If you know Kristen at all, you won't be surprised by this video. This is from her little preschool Christmas program. All I have to say is at least she sang the song (which is all they were supposed to do! She's the one in the white shirt on the far right, and the yelling/singing you hear is her. Yes, we're so proud. Sunday, January 24, 2010. I had a car.

Hippos and Jeeps: August 2010
http://hipposandjeeps.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 20, 2010. Flashback Friday: Who Do Your Kids Look Like? I've never been very good at being able to tell if a child looks more like the mother or father - unless it's overly obvious. I have always known that Kristen as a baby looked EXACTLY like Eric did when he was a baby. And I kinda always thought that Evan looks like Eric, too. That was, until I happened upon this picture of myself at 1 year old:. Now, aside from my Sesame Street 70's dress, I can't help but see the resemblance. You?

Hippos and Jeeps: February 2010
http://hipposandjeeps.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 26, 2010. I have not been binge drinking. I am not on strong pain medication. I don't do the wacky weed. So why, oh why, is my fortune so unfortunate? Don't they have QC on the fortune cookie assembly line? Sunday, February 7, 2010. Time Out From Flashbacks - Look At These Cuties! OK, I couldn't wait until I was actually done with all my retroactive postings (because, hey, who knows when I'm really going to be done anyway? Kristen, 4 years old. Evan, 6 months old. Shown earlier, Kristen ...
