And the Milestones Just Keep on Comin’

September 3, 2009 by Elaine

I’ve been sort of agonizing over what kind of bed to get for Little G. Until yesterday. I made what we call in our family “an executive decision,” and bought one in the morning and it was delivered before lunch time was over. Done. I love it when I finally make up my mind. Although…

It Was a Great FIRST Day!

August 18, 2009 by Elaine

The night before…. We chose and then laid out his school clothes (did I mention that I discovered there was a uniform-type dress code less than a week before school started?). I packed his lunch of yogurt, peanut butter sandwich (no jam), green grapes and 2 cookies. I made sure I had his “educational supply…

We Interrupt This Regulary Scheduled Program…

July 29, 2009 by Elaine

… to talk about The Toddler. Y’all remember I have kids, right? With all the BlogHer craziness I’d kinda forgotten myself (of course I didn’t actually forget, you know that, right?), although FULLY reminded when I returned home to the multiple personalities that comprise a two-year old. I missed his adorable smile, his sweet toddler…

WW – Cute Kids & Wonderful Teachers!

May 27, 2009 by Elaine

Yesterday the boys had their end of the year program at preschool and it was so fun watching all the kids perform. They started with the 4 year olds (most of them now 5 of course!) and their “graduation.” I was actually quite glad that they were able to just wear their Sunday Best and…

Totally Terrific Two!

May 15, 2009 by Elaine

So today is the anniversary of the day that My Little G was born, two years ago. His birth story is nothing out of the ordinary except for the fact that he was born. My beautiful, wonderful, perfect second son who from the moment I saw his face, I knew would be another great love…

Who, Me??

May 11, 2009 by Elaine

Things have been kinda crazy in the Miss Elaine-ous household lately as big changes are afoot (of which I can only elude to at this time). Needless to say I haven’t spent much time reading blogs, commenting and twittering in the last few days. So when I did get on twitter for a few moments…

This is an Equal Opportunity Blog

April 24, 2009 by Elaine

I kinda feel like it’s been “The Little G” show around here lately so I thought I would give The B Man some equal time. Because he’s pretty darn cute himself you know… A few weeks ago I gave him the little interview that’s gone around many a blog in the last few weeks and…

Wedding Meme, 3B1M Style!

April 7, 2009 by Elaine

It’s been a while since I turned the pages of my wedding photo albums. Life gets busy and we tend to forget to look at the pages of images that capture one of the most important days of our lives. So I just want to thank my friend Three Boys 1 Mommy for hosting this…
