FUN FACT: I had Greta's poo and vomit on me before 7:00 AM today.

Yup, Bunny's sick. Whenever she gets a pukey bug I get very nervous and wonder if each tummy rumble (of mine) means I'll be spending the next 12 or so hours near a toilet. I know, I know. My kid gets sick and I immediately think about myself. Well, I didn't get the nickname "Fran-o-centric" from my college roommate for nothin'. Seriously, though, when Greta has GI issues, I immediately start considering each meal as my last. By last I mean meal-I-…

I predict therapy in your future

I am assuming each family has their weird little things that they do that no one else would dream of doing, and we're not exception. Some of these things are pretty tame, albeit strange, but some things make me wonder if we've completely negated the year-plus of breast-feeding and all of the homemade baby food and everything else we've done to make Greta perfect.

Pat Reed makes a very pretty (albeit grumpy) little girl

I had so many people this weekend tell me that Greta looks just like me, which I consider a great compliment because I think that Greta is super pretty, but I think they're all crazy. Greta looks just like Pat Reed. As proof, here is a picture of a young Pat that looks eerily like Greta's recent class photo. For those of you who are thinking Greta looks just like me, behold!

I find this hilarious yet slightly horrifying

I am terrified of spiders and one just came crawling down my office wall, and it was a BIG one. Well, it was pretty big. Too big for my liking. When I saw it out of the corner of my eye I squealed and then I panicked. I can't kill a spider that big. I yell, "Geeeerrrry?" to the person in the office next door, "How do you feel about killing big spiders?" He came over and killed it for me (although he did leave the spider carcass on my desk, but that's okay - killing it was really all I needed…
