We’ve Moved

Not from Chicago, silly!  I’ve moved the blog.  Milkymilk is now at TypePad.  I have loved Word Press, for reals.  It is just time to move on.  It is a new year, and I can’t do my cute mini etsy store thingy on this blog.
I also have a new slightly used fancy pants computer.  It [...]

Biz’s Beat of the Day

This is a very old picture of Harper.  It is from this summer, when she had a baby tan and wore sun dresses.  Before she was mobile enough to eat dirt, and before the ground froze and was covered by snow.  I was playing flickr tag, when you post the 5th picture form your 5th [...]

Kippy Christmas

Skylar’s office holiday party was at Dave and Busters this year.  I have not played arcade games since I was a kid, and can I just say, I have gotten way better.  With a few ticket donations from our friends, we were able to win this classy Care Bear for Harper.  Her Kippy Christmas could [...]

Christmas Craft Conundrum

Awe, last year’s tree.
I am not crafty by nature, but the time has come for me to break out a glue gun of some sort and figure out solutions to these problems:
1) Is there a way to craft an attractive and sturdy dog toy?
*I did find this recipe for doggy donuts that I think will [...]

4 years ago today

I met Skylar for the first time.  I was having brunch at Auntie Em’s with my friends Al & Liz.  Our friend Donna, who is a culinary whiz that works at Auntie Em’s, and her boyfriend, John, met us too.  John asked his friend, Skylar, to come.  The rest is history.  
He was the cutest thing I [...]

Jinx!

Skylar and I began our Christmas shopping today, and it was not as stressful as I had anticipated.  Hopefully, this holiday season will be smooth like butter.
I also got my hair cut, and can I just say, I feel fabulous.  That is right, I do.  I missed my last appointment, at the end of October, [...]

Supercute

A day in the life of the ridiculously adorable:

She learned to ‘walk’ with her toy stroller.

But, she has not figured out how to turn it around after she hits something with it, like the wall.

She offered Spanky some information on Bubbles Academy.  Spanky was not interested.

We spent a long time trying to get a picture [...]

After Bedtime!

Saturday night I went out.  Wait a minute, yes.  You read that right.  I went out.  No, not to a play date, play group or grocery store.  Not somewhere with the baby at all.  Not even with Skylar.  Out at night.  After bedtime.  With ladies who don’t have babies.  Girl’s night, if you will.
This happens [...]

Whippersnappers! I’m OLD!

Grant Park was amazing last night.  I don’t feel very articulate about it today, and I’m not sure if it because words fail me, or sleep deprivation.  Oh, I’m so sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeepy.  
I know I learned something about myself last night.  I am not part of the youth vote anymore.  I missed the cut off age [...]
