It’s been a rough few weeks, with a new baby needing the usual attention and with Hypertot discovering new levels of mischievousness; but yesterday we had a spot of encouragement to light up the challenges. We discovered that Hypertot is bilingual. Well, about liquid in cans, anyway. I and three kids moved from California to […]

Update:Christina here. Still here. Another false alarm. Grrrrr. Joel here. Christina’s likely to be heading off to the hospital any time now, and I’ll be going with her if my TV show is over by then.

For those of you loyal enough to keep stopping by even with a distinct shortage of postings, you may be wondering where I’ve been. Well, as you know, I’m in the last few weeks of my pregnancy, and slowing down. I won’t go into the details of lack of sleep, because nobody likes other people’s […]
