“Tonight, On The Bachelor…”

Once again, I enjoyed another memorable evening with my husband watching The Bachelor, or “The Bach” as we like to call it. I realize not everyone watches this show, but those of you who do might know what I am talking about in regards to Monday night’s episode. Here are our thoughts throughout the show: […]

From In-House to Dog House

As I have mentioned before, once we found out about Baby #2, the Hubby was kicked out of our spare bedroom/office. I thought he would be a little more disappointed than he was though. Instead, he took this news as a challenge and turned our old dog/tool shed into his new home office. I thought… […]

A Side of Ketchup, Please.

My friends, and even Mother, keep insisting on how wonderful the crock pot is. I have very few encounters with this thing and the meals I have made from it have turned out rather, well just plain bad. A few years ago when I was newly pregnant with my daughter, I had a strong aversion […]

The Lock Out

Composed yesterday. My daughter just locked herself in our bedroom. I thought kids did this when they were like… FOUR… not 21 months! We were playing a little game where she would shut the door on me and we’d take turns yelling back and forth to one another. I’d then open the door, say “I […]

For example: Hubby is laying in bed and we are chatting away. He then turns over to get comfortable, and 1-2 minutes […]

(Composed throughout yesterday) I am heading back to Pullman today from my Weekend Away, and boy, I sure did pack in as much as I could while in Reno. To start, for those of you who read my last post, A Weekend Away, I thought I’d give a little update of how the travels actually went […]

A Weekend Away

I am leaving today for Reno for my baby shower! Yahoo! And no, Gwyneth is NOT going with me… this Mama is flying solo!  I just pictured myself galloping through the airport because my husband believes in getting there JUST in time to catch the flight; 8 1/2 months pregnant; arms full of  a 30 […]

Baby Feeding Belly

I don’t think Gwyneth truly understands that a new baby is coming into our home in a matter of weeks. I mean, she will do some pretty cute things like kiss my belly, point to it and say “baby,” and give it a big squeeze, but as for truly comprehending that her life is about […]
