The Hubby and I went car shopping last weekend because two carseats, a diaper bag, and a double stroller just leave NO extra room in our Altima for anything else. Adding in groceries, especially dog food into that mix, was quite the puzzle. We knew we wanted a small SUV going into the day’s adventure, […]
Before, when we would take Gwyneth to the park or to a play area, one of us was always going with Gwyneth up the stairs, across the bridges, and down the slides, making sure she could climb the stairs okay or that she wouldn’t fall over the side. I’m not sure when it happened, but […]
For the most part, Gwyn leaves her brother alone. But when he is actually made “available” for playing, she sure does take advantage of the opportunity. Big Sister Gwyn showing Cal how to play with his floor gym. Teaching Cal how to do a puzzle. And then she thought, “You know… you look like a […]
I still struggle when changing Little Man’s diaper. I mean, it’s actual work when changing the thing! His little frog legs extend to and fro in no such predictable manner; he’s crying half the time, which just heightens my anxiety and makes my blood pressure skyrocket; I am trying to keep his little man part […]
Gwyneth officially has her first crush. The Hubby was asking Gwyn how her day at playschool went, and then went on to ask her if she saw her friends. “Friends!” Gwyneth repeated, one of her favorite things to say. The conversation didn’t go much further than that, until about a minute later… Gwyn: “Isaac!” Hubby: “What […]
The Hubby comes home from work today and turns the TV on to the NFL Draft, which was about to start any minute, and wishes Gwyneth and I “Happy NFL Draft Day.” Slightly…. just ever-so slightly intrigued, I watch the first pick since I remember seeing the number one draft pick (whatshisname) in an interview […]
One of my favorite DIY projects is this growth chart. It can easily be transported from home to home and our kiddos can watch themselves grow over the years. Plus, it just looks AWESOME!!! My first attempt was kind of a flop, though it still turned out pretty good. I took most of the “how […]
We’ve had incredibly lovely weather the last few days and boy, am I thankful. It has lightened our moods, sparked more giggles and the days sure do go by quickly when able to expend some energy outdoors. The downside? We have yet to put our AC unit in the house and it has bee dreadfully […]
I’ve started eating dairy free because it seems that little Cal gets the toots when I eat anything delicious. He doesn’t just get the toots, but pretty painful tummy rumbles, so it is lactose free for me. I actually was diagnosed as lactose intolerant when I was in my early twenties. Strange how it came about so […]
I should have entered… What do you think? Winner??? And this was through three layers!! Thank goodness I was at home!
