Medicine Cabinet Meme

January 29, 2009 by Elaine

My good pal Supermommy @ Three Boys One Mommy decided it would be a good idea to peek into some of our medicine cabinets. (BTW, I KNOW we are good pals because we are friends on Facebook. So there.) After I was done blog-hopping, twittering and checking email the night after I saw her post,…

WW – Fine Dining

January 28, 2009 by Elaine

There were many, MANY meals similar to those shown below, in this booster chair. I say “were” because thankfully, about the time I was completely tired of wiping it down, of anything from peas to applesauce to milk, he got tired of sitting in it and began to refuse last week. So it was good…

You Know, This Blogging Thing is Kinda Fun

January 27, 2009 by Elaine

So, I’ve been blogging for over two years now but it’s only been about a year that I really started getting involved in this community of woman bloggers (and a few guys too!) that continues to propagate itself (I ‘m constantly amazed at the new blogs I find EVERY. DAY.) The other day when I…

Weekly Winners – 1/25

January 25, 2009 by Elaine

January 18 – 24 So in looking back over my “winners” for this week I’ve come to two conclusions. 1. My kids eat a lot. 2. When my kids eat, they are messy, as you will soon see. There are also a couple of other pictures thrown in for good measure. And because I like…

Photostory Friday – The Horse Farm

January 23, 2009 by Elaine

There’s a horse farm and stables right smack dab in the middle of our neighborhood. At the end of one of the streets you can walk right up to the fence that separates the humans from the animals and the area where the horses graze and are fed their daily hay. And the other day…

Will You Read My Random?

January 22, 2009 by Elaine

I’m sitting here watching a re-run of “Will and Grace” and missing the good ole days of “Must See T.V.” How random is that? Ok, so here’s the rest of my randomness for today. *I’m getting a little bored with the running. I still want to do it but sometimes I am running (since I…

WW – Passing of the Torch

January 21, 2009 by Elaine

Yesterday was a really emotional day for me. I am not exactly sure why. I found myself blubbering at one point. I was glued to the t.v. during the inaguration ceremony and in awe at the crowds on the National Mall. Just thinking about it again makes me tear up. I think A LOT of…

Back to Books

January 20, 2009 by Elaine

I don’t read a lot. Ok wait. I do read quite a bit but most of what I read these days can be found within the four little corners of my wonderful laptop screen (that as I am writing this, my husband is trying to sweet talk back to life, so… so am I! Please…

Not Me Monday – 2nd Edition

January 19, 2009 by Elaine

Here’s my second attempt at “Not me!” Monday, hosted by MckMama! I did NOT eat too many mini buttercups from Trader Joe’s. Nope NOT me. I really did NOT forget where I was and start singing along to a Rihanna song on my iPod too loudly the other day while on the treadmill at the…
