Why it’s Good to do Your Kegels

March 5, 2009 by Elaine

One night last week I had the chance to go out for a ladies night and see “He’s Just Not That Into You.” And let me just say right now that Jennifer Aniston and Ben Affleck actually make a cute couple. And Ginnifer Goodwin was just as adorable as she could be. (side note: did…

WW – A Season of Forgiveness

March 4, 2009 by Elaine

The weather here in Texas can be so bipolar at this time of the year. One minute you’re wearing a sweater and jeans while the temps are dipping into the ’40s and the next day you’re taking the kids to the park and sweating. It’s truly crazy. I strolled outside on one of the warmer…

I Heart Faces – Messy Face

March 3, 2009 by Elaine

This week I am entering a photo for the photo contest at i heart faces for the first time! The theme this week is “Messy Face” and I adore this picture of Little G on spaghetti night, many months ago. I’ve entered this photo under the “beginner” category because I consider myself an amateur photographer….

The BIG Dinner Re-cap!

March 2, 2009 by Elaine

There is SO much to say about Saturday night that I’m not sure where to start. I guess I should start by saying I had a GREAT time! And then there are my shoes. I wore these. I saw them at DSW the other day and just HAD to have them (still doing my part…

It’s Officially Offical

February 28, 2009 by Elaine

We saw the “wee one,” baby #3, the peanut, the kidney bean… yesterday. And it was as spectacular as it has been the previous two times. Especially that little baby heartbeat, just blinking away at us. And we were relieved that there was only uno bambino (that’s a little shout out to 3B1M, whose blog…

Past Post Parade – February

February 27, 2009 by Elaine

Last month I decided to do something about the fact that I haven’t seen ENOUGH of what everyone has to say on their blog. So, I asked you all to link up and share with me your posts from the past. And I personally think it went swimmingly. I had so much fun visiting everyone…

Sonograms, The BIG Dinner, Past Posts, etc.

February 26, 2009 by Elaine

Lots of exciting things in the next few days. Today is my first sonogram and appointment with my doctor for the kidney bean – at least that’s the size babycenter.com says he/she is. And actually I will not even see my doctor today, rather the nurse practitioner. Which is fine because my doctor is a…

Wordful Wednesday – NACKS!

February 25, 2009 by Elaine

So, my youngest child (a.k.a Little G) is OBSESSED with these little fruit snacks that we buy at Costco and come in a jagnormous box of like 50 packets so that you seem to never run out. Below you will find a picture of him downing some of them and then there’s a little video…

My Day

February 24, 2009 by Elaine

I woke up Monday feeling quite a bit better and gave my husband the okay to go to work. And the rest of the day went like this… I sat around my laptop in the morning hitting “refresh” a lot so I could link up to MckMama’s carnival but it didn’t get posted until after…

Not Me Monday, 6th Edition

February 23, 2009 by Elaine

Welcome to another Monday and my list of Not Me’s. “Not Me” Monday is the brainchild of Mckmama. I don’t have a lot this week (and that’s the truth!) because I’ve been pretty sick and just a hot mess lately. But here’s a few… I did NOT call the plumber finally about that toilet. I…
