Honestly, if I lived with The Mom of the Year, I would probably be a little intimated too. I’m pretty sure when my husband greets me with a wary face upon his return home from work it has nothing to do with the screaming children or toys strewn all over the house–he’s just in awe […]
Hanging on the Porch & Cohosting Monday Mom Musings
Wha-whaa?? Jelli from Jellibean Journals wanted to co-host her weekly link-up, Monday Mom Musings, with me? Seriously, I know I’m The Mom of the Year ;), but this was a huge honor, the likes of which this little blog has never seen! Important enough that I was willing to suspend my weekly Monday Review series–I […]
What’s With the Judgement?
Seriously people, can we just get over this judging-other-parents thing? (Disclaimer: this is most definitely an overdone post–deal.) Obviously, if it affects me directly (as Patricia at The Worst Mom Ever so perfectly described, as in, you drop your multiple children at my house unannounced, we may have a problem), or if it potentially scars […]
One of These Things Is Not Like the Other
The further I get into this world of kids, the more I realize how incredibly different each child is. No two kids are even close to being alike. I see it when we are around other families, and I see it in my own house. My own two children are vastly different from each other. […]
Chatting It Up at the Dinner Table
We’ve got some awesome dinnertime conversation going on right now. When you never really leave the house, things can become “a bit limited.” Outside of my husband, son, daughter, and dog, the primary players in my life right now are Mickey Mouse and the mail lady (though, in an uncharacteristic expansion of his repertoire, my […]
Overdone Posts
There are so many topics out there that I wish I would have been creative enough to have been one of the first to blog about, but I just totally missed the boat. You fellow bloggers know exactly what I’m talking about. Now I would so love do a post on some of these wonderful […]
The Water Table: A Monday Review
I have put this off for way too long. We’re already well into August and I have neglected to share with you our #1 hot spot this summer–the water table. What is it? A plastic table you pour about 3″ of water into. What is the deal? I have no idea. If you asked me […]
Keepsakes
Did I miss some sort of National Cleaning Out Your Junk From Your Parents’ House Day? I thought I made pretty good pass at sorting/tossing all of my old stuff when I moved out. But recently my dad (who is doing an awesome job cleaning out and organizing the entire house), just gave me a […]
Just When You Get Good At It…
Does this happen to anyone else? Just when I start to get the hang of something, it’s always time to move on. I was with my friend C the other day and we were talking about the skillful dance of trying to leave the house around naptimes. I actually (sort-of) thought I had this one […]
The Tale of Two Butts
The other day I was changing Isaac’s (my 3 yr. old son) diaper (yes, hush–obviously the potty-training is going well. Thanks for noting this.). Elyse (my 1 yr. old daughter) crawled over to the scene and pointed at his penis. The following conversation ensued: SourceApparently, my daughter will be requiring thetwo-pack to cover her “situation” […]
