Today I have a guest post from my lovely friend, Liz, of Learning to Juggle. She also has two boys and baby girl like me and likes to run, and just finished her first half marathon!! It’s like we are the same person. 😉 Plus, I get to meet her at BlogHer in August –…
At 2:47 p.m. he’ll be 8
Remember those commercials from a couple of years ago that said at the end, “A baby changes everything“? There is so very much truth to that statement. My life was forever changed the minute my Benjamin was born. just a few days old And now that he is eight years old I am getting to…
My friend called the other day…
In these days of constant busy and growing up little kids and having my mind somewhere else but here, and well, just LIVING, I do not talk to my friends on the phone very much anymore. I see my local friends and we text or get together for Mom nights where we talk in a…
Growing and growing…
I spent the beautiful morning cleaning house and doing chores, putting away the clothes of my children. The pants and socks and underwear and shirts that just keep getting bigger and bigger… There is simply no stopping them. Just like the babies, the ones that are now kids. I rinsed the same colorful, plastic dishes…
Behind door number one…
On the other side of that first door on the left there is a little girl, calling my name. She is waiting for me to rescue her and provide a snack and some neck kisses and sweet hugs. Not necessarily in that order. Her smile softens my heart on the daily and the sunshine in…
We love each other every day…

Plan a Trip with your Man/Woman/Partner ASAP!
When Tim looked at me in October with weary eyes and said, “I need a break, let’s go somewhere” I of course said, “Yes, LET’S!” I LOVE to travel and have my parents to thank for this, since they do as well. We went on a family vacation pretty much every summer of my life,…
It Really IS a Hellava Town!
New York City is simply amazing. For SO many reasons. But it’s extra amazing at the holidays. The hustle and bustle is even more so and there are festive decorations and lights and Christmas trees just about everywhere. I have SO many things to say and could go on for days (and MANY posts!) about the things…
