Who needs toys when you've got keys and a table!!!
Oops, I meant ON a shoestring. The latter forms an image of me taunting my child with a piece of yarn like a kitten. Now that I think of it, you could probably do that and get at least a good ten minutes of [...]
Bella and Edward stare lovingly into each others eyes
One of the perks of being a parent is that you go from being the weirdo that collects dolls and legos to being able to mask your obsession because you have children. No one questions the reason why your house looks like Toys R Us [...]
My 30th birthday…I'm in the red shirt. One of my best birthdays ever!
If you are wondering, New Year’s Eve is a really sucky day to be born. You’d think that with all the parties and kissing and drinking champagne that it would be the best day to have a birthday. It’s not. I [...]
Yeah, I’m talkin’ about my perfect weekend. Read more — if you are a stressed out mom, this might be the recipe for the best weekend ever. It was for me.
I’ve had some pretty rough times this year. (That is an understatement for those of you who know me or follow this blog or are [...]

Our Donated Dinner! YUM!
My son is doing better. We arrived home earlier this week after spending the previous week in the hospital. We were on strict orders that if he developed a fever above 101, a rash, or red eyes we needed to bring him immediately back to the hospital. Thankfully, we only [...]
A sick Lucas and Penny stay inside and eat M&Ms on Halloween
We can’t seem to catch a break lately. All we’re catching are colds.
My daughter’s first birthday party was canceled because I was sick. Now my son’s first trick-or-treat was canceled because he and his sister are sick — and it’s raining [...]
