Big News: The Toddlerita is officially no longer a toddler, at least by my definition. (No more d-i-a-p-e-r-s--a long and horrid story which I might write about someday, or might choose to block out of my memory.) She needs a new name, and we’ll put “Toddlerita” in mothballs until the Wee One can use it. “Preschoolerita” just doesn’t have a ring to it, so I think I need some help on this one. If you have any ideas for the new moniker, e-mail them to me at phin122699(at)yahoo.com.

While you’re tripping about on the web, check out the newest pics on quistilton.com. My favorite is the one where the big sister looks like a jaded Vegas starlet.
