Dan and Jen’s Blog

Dinah has it. Again. And it’s so bad that she starts crying the moment we mention changing her. When we go anywhere close to the changing table, she starts clinging to us and screaming. Changing her has become an extreme sport, like wrestling a wildebeest. She’s red and raw and bleeding. We took her to [...]

Kohl’s is having a big sale. They have a great selection of baby stuff, with some seriously decent prices.

Dan cooked twice two weeks ago: tacos and enchiladas. Both of these recipes were from the Food Network, so we expected greatness. Both of them also called for corn tortillas rather than flour tortillas. So we used the corn tortillas. I’m not a fan. I know some of you, dear friends, always use corn tortillas, [...]

I almost named this post “Puke. Puke. and then I Puked Some More.” but I thought it might be in bad taste (pun not intended). It was a couple of weeks ago, but Dan and I are still exhausted from it. Right after Dinah’s dinner and bath on that Monday, she was in the living [...]

Here are some fun pictures that I snapped while Dan blew bubbles for Dinah.  As you can see, they’re a big hit (she gets really upset when the bubble fun is over!)!

This makes me happy.
