Two updates (one happy, one messy)

Just when I get back to blogging, I'm having to deliver a short post today for two reasons:

1) My 4-year-old projectile vomited last night on my teenage stepdaughter's bed (to be specific, on her boyfriend's coat) and then spiked a fever, so I've been occupied since then and don't have much time for a researched post related to writing.

2) If you check my "About Me" section in the margin to the right, you may notice that I've changed, "Mom to 1 youngster" to "Mom to 2 youngsters." (insert happy, tired grin) That's also the reason that I haven't responded to some blog comments on my post from Tuesday~ I'll get around to it, I promise! And I will be back to reading/commenting on your posts as soon as routines and stomachs settle down here :)

  8. Hey! That's awesome! (I mean, the part about the second youngster. The vomiting, not so much.) That's the best excuse I know for being behind on blogging!

    Congratulations all the way around.

  9. Congratulations! Your picture went from one to two youngsters, all without gaining weight. Kind of like the picture of Dorian Gray -- hey, that might be a story idea.

  16. Congrats, Jess, on the new addition. And I'm sorry, but I'm still laughing over the boyfriend's jacket. My 10 year puked in our van just before Christmas. But my husband forgot to tell me and now it's frozen into the seats. :P
