Three out of the four of us have spring colds. Miss B is the lucky one, currently virus-free.

In other–and more exciting–new. The “Mom & Me” watches Kyra and I sent away for arrived. Although, honestly, I think she had more fun eating the Rice Krispies and contemplating the arrival of the “Mom & Me” watches. Of course, she would eat Rice Krispies for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if I let her (she asked for them tonight).

Now, these watches looked cool on the box, and according to the the marketing claim, our lives wouldn’t be complete without them:

Now… You and Mom can always be in sync!

Set of super hip, sporty watches – includes one adult size and one kid size

Much. Too. Large. But then Miss B and I have thin wrists. (No fun for doing pushups. I never could fatten them up–the wrists, not the pushups.) But considering that she’s sitting on my lap while I write this (thin wrists, but long arms), I guess we’re in sync.
