Little G Talks (Ok, not really…)

January 16, 2008 by Elaine

I had so many other thoughts going on in my head yesterday that I missed the opportunity to note Little G’s 8 month anniversary. What kind of mother am I anyway? Some how I have been blindsided because I have no idea where the time has gone. He’s a growin’ this one, and he’s starting…

Bloggy Makeover

January 16, 2008 by Elaine

Sometimes I sit here and dream about what my blog COULD look like but unfortunately, I am no HTML expert. There are others out there who do know the code and can do a beautiful job to make mine and other blogs look oh so wonderful. All of this being said, A Frog In My…

The Plastic Bag Blues

January 15, 2008 by Elaine

Is anyone else out there tired of the plastic bag? I come home from the grocery store every week with about 10 of them and if this keeps up they will eventually take over my garage. Can you see the headline, “Young Mom Suffocates Under Pile of Plastic Grocery Bags!” I especially like the “Young”…

Enchilada Yumminess!

January 14, 2008 by Elaine

Tim and I made some of our great enchiladas tonight. I am modest aren’t I? I found a recipe a few years ago on the internet and misplaced my printout of it a while back. I tried to relocate it on the world wide web but to no avail. Fortunately, I had made it a…

10 Random Things

January 12, 2008 by Elaine

Tim and Little G are sickly with some sort of cold. It’s no fun to have a sick child but it’s REALLY no fun to have a sick husband (I know you girls know what I mean…) I have been able to do some scrapbooking lately. I really love it and wish I had even…

Red Carpet Withdrawl

January 9, 2008 by Elaine

Is anyone else completely bummed about the fact that there will be no Golden Globe Awards this year? Okay, there will be awards but no show. No red carpet, no fan fair – nothing! I could cry. I am sitting here as I type, watching Queen Latifa announce the People’s Choice Awards ALL BY HERSELF…

It’s A Halo! It’s Feathers! No, It’s Super Fuzz!

January 7, 2008 by Elaine

This is the current, up to the minute state of Little G’s hair (that’s my new blog nick name for him). Is it cute OR WHAT?!?!? I am taking tons of pictures of it lately because it totally cracks me up and pretty much anyone who sees him these days. When we were at the…

Frosty & Rudolph Must Have Missed Their Sleigh Back to the North Pole

January 4, 2008 by Elaine

Christmas is over, right? Well you wouldn’t necessarily know it at my house. Yes, the presents are unwrapped and the decorations are (almost) put away and the cookies are all eaten up but one thing continues… The songs. Ben WILL NOT quit singing the same cadence of “Frosty” and “Rudolph” over and over… and… over….

Some Random New Year Stuff

January 1, 2008 by Elaine

Last night we rang in the New Year with family and friends at our house. Tim’s sister Kathy and her husband Dave and son Andy drove down from North Dakota and arrived Sunday. They brought their Wii. Need I say more? Tim is suffering from a severe case of what we are calling “Wii-sitis.” A…

Reason #365 Why I Love My Husband

December 30, 2007 by Elaine

Two words… Pizza Delivery… Brought to the door by a friendly man waiting to take our money – that’s another reason why I love my husband. Silly you say? Not when you’ve been stressing over what the family is going to eat that night and your husband has been at work all day (again) and…
