The B Man caught me off-guard a little today when he walked in the kitchen while I was attempting to cook dinner and comfort his fussy baby sister (it’s apparently called “multi-tasking” and not “stressful” – whatever). He was starting to unzip his school pants while saying “Mommy, wanna see something funny!?” I was inclined…
WW – My Three
My three children are growing up right before my very eyes. (I know, I can hear you saying it, “Well of course they are, Elaine, that’s what children do!”) I registered The B Man for soccer last weekend. Little G uses the word “actually” correctly. Baby K smiles hugely as I come toward her to…
Them Boys
It’s hard to get as much time as I’d like these days with my two sweet boys. Their baby sister takes precedence right now in many cases. But it must be said, they still have my heart. They will ALWAYS have my heart. I can still find matching sweaters for them and help them dress…
He Ran Out to Get What Could Be Our 500th Tube Since We Got Married
We put the Christmas tree up on Saturday. We (meaning I) kept it pretty simple this year and didn’t even put EVERY.SINGLE ornament on the tree. Since our entire living room is 18 inch tiles I bought a VERY large piece of felt to put under the tree and am hoping (and praying) that it…
WW – When I Used to “Work”
I’ve been having memories in the last couple of days of when I used to work outside the home after The B Man was born. Perhaps because I have another little baby and can’t even imagine having to leave her soon… I went for my six week post-op check up at the doctor on Monday…
Having Visions of that Graphic of a Clock with Wings (in other words, Time Flies…)
Time is a funny thing. I remember when I ran through the dorm trying to get my laundry done and when I passed by the t.v. room a TON of people were in there watching some show called “Friends.” After I loaded the dryer with my acid wash jeans (oh kidding, I NEVER wore those…)…
WW – Halloween (Past) Edition
For The B Man’s first Halloween we were gifted with this awesome chicken costume from Tim’s Dad and his wife, Diane. She worked for Old Navy at the time and despite being a little big, I think it “fit” him quite well. I even had professional pictures done of him in it and sent out…
What’s up with my kids, you ask
Okay, you probably didn’t and this update is more for my sake than yours but just humor me, k? 5 year old (The B Man) *Learning to read * Drawing up a storm, constantly making new pictures with his markers and they are GOOD drawings. Yesterday he blew me away with his rendition of Wall-E….
WW – Tiny & Sweet
I absolutely adore baby feet and toes. Yesterday The B Man and I used these little baby girl ones to do “This Little Piggy” and he said “Mommy, they’re almost too small to do it with!” I love it. Link up to WordFUL Wednesday at Angie’s place – Seven Clown Circus.
Sonograms are Better Nowadays, Right?
I’ve been wrapped up in expecting a girl. The clothes, the bows, the PINK, the polka dots (I love me some polka dots!), the idea of dressing MY child in a DRESS and it being well, APPROPRIATE. I went to our new dentist this morning and the hygienist (who’s probably in her early ’50’s) felt…
