Oh No! Here We Go Again…
Whoever said two’s were “terrible” were liars! I’d take two’s back any day. Terrible 3’s is more like it. (Okay – call it “Terrific 3’s” if we’re gonna be all PC about it.) In our house, it’s beginning again. We have a 2 1/2 year old and she’s got the full on 3’s. Bring on… Continue reading

Pirate Pete!
Meet the new character that moved in with us! It’s Pirate Pete!! Arrrgghh Matey! Hannah gives Pete a love! Yes, I have officially gone insane! I found this fun puppet at a consignment shop and thought about what fun it would be with the kids. After our sessions with FOCUS I thought perhaps a character would… Continue reading

Green-Eyed Monster
I have a confession. Whenever I see my neighbor run or ride his bike by my house – I am GREEN with envy! I don’t normally consider myself a jealous person, but it never seems to fail, when my place looks like this: this neighbor guy runs by looking something like this: Okay, not… Continue reading

Never Say Never
When I worked in banking I used to see the non-showered stay-at-home-moms looking all frazzled and not “making their children behave” as they ran around and got loud.

It Wasn’t a Mushy Banana Day….but…..
Had a great time in Minnesota (will blog about that one later tonight after the kiddos are asleep) but I am so glad to be home and in my own bed. We have a tempurpedic mattress and sadly it makes us wimps when it comes to staying in hotels with crappy beds. Yeah, I know… Continue reading

Fully Prepared….To Never Leave The House Again!!
Okay, that may be just a tad bit unrealistic. Although I may consider wearing a sign warning people that if they are considering having children, they should look away as watching our family in action just may be the best form of birth control ever. We went to breakfast with friends at a local restaurant… Continue reading

Mushy Banana Day
Let me start by saying that yes, I do know that there are REAL people going through REAL problems out there (as opposed to my 1st world mommy problems). But really – what else is a blog if not an overly self-aware commentary of daily drivel? So the day started like most – Jake asking… Continue reading

Everything I need to know I learned from potty training!
Boys and girls are DIFFERENT! Not better or worse – just different. Instead of comparisons, let’s celebrate the differences. Don’t hold it in or you might have an explosion! If you miss the toilet, wait and try again. There are always opportunities for do-overs! Be nice to the person whose bottom you are wiping, they… Continue reading

Tattoo
When I was 16 I REALLY wanted a tattoo. Really. A lot. But when my mom asked me what I wanted – I was always at a loss. I could never come up with something that I knew I’d be okay with at 90, or in a place that wouldn’t sag or droop or just… Continue reading
