We’ve started collectively referring to the boys as “the boys”. They share a room now, are together quite a bit, and tend to be up to the same types of shenanigans. That’s mostly because little Chandler wants to do everything big brother is doing. But, they are growing up way too fast for me. Especially […]
I Got This
So, a friend asked me yesterday to watch her little boy for a couple of hours. I agreed. In fact, I kind of offered. I don’t normally offer to watch other people’s kids. Having three of my own, and loads of stress and anxiety 90% of the time, I just don’t feel like I need […]
A Little Peek
Sometimes, I think I’m too sensitive for this blogging thing. Yesterday, I received a comment on my blog that was not only was offensive, and made me sick to my stomach, but it felt a little threatening too. I’ve reported it to WordPress, and also flagged it as spam, but it lingers in the back […]
Post-Holiday Reality. I Don’t live in Downton Abbey.
I’ve decided that I need a cook, a maid, a butler, and someone to dress me. Or in other words, I’ve discovered Downton Abbey this weekend. I know, I’m a little behind. But, I basically spent every hour I could from Friday night until last night watching as many episodes as was humanly possible of […]
What Was I Thinking? Tips on Choosing a Blog Name.
When I was choosing the name for this blog, I wanted some anonymity (my old blog name used our last name in the title) and I wanted something that encompassed me and my personality. I wanted something catchy and cute. Something that people would remember. And, I had a few ideas. But, what kept coming […]
Staring into the Fish Bowl is Making Us Crazy
Yesterday, I read one too many Miley Cyrus posts. Everyone had their opinions. Everyone shared their outrage in one direction or another. And, everyone seemed to write about it. And, I read the posts like everyone else. I went back and forth with thoughts like, “That poor, troubled girl” to “My kid will never do […]
If Playgroups Could Talk
Here’s a thought: I think kids secretly hate playgroups. I hosted a playgroup at my house today for the young moms at church, and I really should be taking a nap after all that crazy instead of writing this blog post. It’s really something that you can’t put into words properly. I prepped all morning. […]
Tiny Little Miracles
My husband walked the girl, as we affectionately call her, to school as I had another appointment. After returning home, he told me I needed to make sure and take the boys down the street and around the corner at 10 AM because the construction crews would be pouring concrete at that time. Our neighborhood […]
In the Backyard
Today, we (I mean my husband, while I watched) did something very important to make this feel like home. We hung the swing in the backyard. The anticipation was great. My husband used a tiny Tow Mater with twine attached to it to launch over the giant branch above. Genius. God created men to do […]
