I was given a label today. While normally that wouldn’t be a good thing, I am owning it. I was told that I am “emotionally honest”. I let that sink in for a moment after I heard it. I am. I don’t hide my feelings often. I wear my heart on my sleeve. I complain […]
We Really Can “Have It All.” AND Have Kids.
We Really Can “Have It All.” And Have Kids. Sometimes as women we are constantly fighting to have it all in society and in the home. But, what if having it all isn’t possible with kids? What if it is? I walked around IKEA today wanting. “OOOh. I wish I could have that rug.” “Oh! […]
Scary
In the car today, I heard Kyle speaking in his I’m-telling-you-a-scary-story-voice. So, of course I tuned into the kid banter that I usually am trying to tune out during car rides. It was something along the lines of there was something made out of ice cream. But, no one wanted to eat it because it […]
Heaven on Earth
I’m pretty sure that when I die, heaven is going to look like this. I am always in awe of the mountains in my own backyard, but these mountains were incredible. And set against this gorgeous lake, it took my breath away. It made camping overnight in Yellowstone SO worth it to drive home through […]
Post-Family Visit Depression
My sister and her family left this morning after a whole week of adventure. We did so much including a trip to Yellowstone….and LOTS of laughs. I miss her a lot. Not to mention my precious niece and nephew and my brother in law who is always there with a witty response to everything. I’m […]

Off to take a nap
Today, I’m not going to write a long blog post. I’m too tired. I got kids sunscreened, dressed, fed, and lunches packed with swimsuits on to go have a fun day at the splash pad with a friend. I remembered everything when I walked out the door with all 3 kids and pulled it shut. […]
Camping? OK. If I Have to.
I realized something about my husband today. So, I really hope he reads this post. We all know that I can be a little obsessive at times. OK, maybe a lot obsessive. When I get into something, I can go a little overboard and become a little crazy. Like, researching my kids’ allergy problems, or […]
The Candy Expert
We went to two birthday parties on Saturday. Which meant double the cake, cotton candy, pinata candy, etc. Then we went to church and the kids got lots of candy there too for some reason today. So, they’ve been on a kind of sugar high/melt down from the sugar crash this weekend. So the logical […]
