  • Mia, Month 3

    Up and down and up and down. What a fun month! Mia is interactive a whole bunch more with smiles and coos, we focused the heck out of tummy time, she’s noticing the world around her, and while still have trouble getting to sleep a lot of nights, is sleeping 10-12 hours straight. She also […]

  • Mia, Month 2

    A little late on this one (only by a touch over a week!), but I’m not going to start missing these now. Bad precedent. Luckily, they’ll get shorter on words. This month Mia began cooing, smiling, laughing, and deciding to be an amazing baby at all times (sleeping 8+ hour stretches at night!) other than […]

The <a href=”http://business.time.com/2012/08/17/facebook-hits-record-low-as-insider-stock-sale-lock-up-period-ends/?iid=biz-main-mostpop1″>insider lock-up period has ended</a> so any [smart] insider will be selling to get what he/she can. I lost about 50% of what I put in. That’s the gamble. <a href=”http://articles.latimes.com/2012/may/23/business/la-fi-mo-facebook-suit-20120523″>Maybe I’ll get something back via class-action</a>?

  • Kids On A Plane

    <p><img alt=”” class=”floatLeft” height=”158″ src=”http://www.childfreechic.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/kids_airplane.jpg” width=”210″/></p> <p>No, I do not have kids.<br/> Yes, I do plan on having some.</p> <p>I think taking kids on planes is awesome. It’s an experience that all children should have. It means they’re seeing more of the world than their home or daycare, and I feel in the long run […]

  • I Funded A Loan on Kiva

    <p><a href=”http://www.kiva.org/lend/342667″><img alt=”” class=”floatLeft” height=”185″ src=”http://www.kiva.org/img/w610h450/887183.jpg” width=”164″/></a></p> <p>If you haven’t heard of Kiva before, <a href=”http://www.kiva.org/about”>go here and read about it</a>. I selected <a href=”http://www.kiva.org/lend/342667″>an auto mechanic from Kenya</a>, Harison Ochar Kimori, as my man. As you can read below in “Common Questions,” that means very little, but it somehow makes me sleep better knowing […]
