Well, my friends told me it would happen. I just didn’t think it would happen so soon. Sydney’s first Disney Princess paraphernalia has been purchased. We’ve been planning a family bike ride for today and after my preaching post about helmets, of course little bird needed to have one. It was hard to find one […]
Here’s some more Carsonisms: Carson, from down the hall: “Mom! [mumble, mumble, mumble]”Me: What did you say, buddy?C: What, mom? [he comes into the kitchen where I am]Me: What did you say to me?C: [confused] Huh?Me: You said something to me when you were in your bedroom and I asked what you said.C: What did […]
I am verbal. I am loquacious. I can say in 3 paragraphs what it takes most people to say in 3 sentences. I can make small talk with a brick wall. It seems my son has inherited this from me. Although he usually clams up in front of others, especially people we don’t see often, […]

If you follow this blog you know I’m a little obsessed with getting pictures of my kids, particularly on special occasions. Well, Easter is coming up, and it is such a wonderful day, but usually quite busy. We don’t even get to go to church together, b/c I’m always singing and have to go early. […]

Don’t you love it when you feel like you made a good purchase? You may remember last June when I was WAY preggo, we decided to invest in a swingset for our backyard. It’s not a very expensive one, but it has what we needed. Last summer it was a lifesaver, as we were pretty […]
Sometimes I DO make my bed.
So, get ready to shine my Mother of the Year trophy. We went on a mini-vacay, just me and the kids, to a friends beach house for a day and a half. On the long drive home, I let Carson have one McD’s cheeseburger (no fries). Then I let him have one red vine. Then […]
Last summer I was hanging out with my hubby & some of his colleagues. One coworker “tattled” on another, saying they had seen SoandSo riding a bike….WITHOUT A HELMET! Oh my word, by the shameful gasps that went up in that place and the accusatory looks, you would have thought SoandSo was caught swigging vodka […]
