Testosterone push
I like to write about how I put pictures on the wall. I could not do this for a while, because, hey, funny story: I did not have a drilling machine. I used to have one. A pretty nice one, in fact. My...

Om Nom unboxed
We’re going to have a baby soon! Yeah, I know: shocker! The other day we talked about the one toy each baby is choosing and that it will hang on to forever. Some babys keep these for a shorter period...

Final touches
So we destroyed the bed (which was totally Lamia’s fault) and got a new one. But what bugged me was that the night stands just did not match at all anymore. Yep: does not work, does it? Thinking about...
