Photostory Friday – G Rocks

February 20, 2009 by Elaine

This kid rocks the squiggly straw, the eye lashes and the blondie blonde hair. I love him beaucoups (and not just for those reasons.) Plus, these things help him get away with A. LOT. Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek

Frist Trimester Random

February 19, 2009 by Elaine

So now that I’m “out” with my pregnancy, I’m free to blog, twitter, email and talk about it. Last week I wanted to twitter about my nausea so badly but I resisted. And… I’m pretty sure that I would have lost some followers in the process if I had. But beware people because those tweets…

WW – 7 Weeks + 1 Day

February 18, 2009 by Elaine

Sorry this picture is really blurry, but I think you get the gist! : ) I felt the need to take two tests just to make sure and since the digital one came “free” in the box with the other two, I figured I’d take it too and actually see the word “Pregnant.” And that…

A “Peace” of my Sunday

February 17, 2009 by Elaine

I had to cantor at the 8 a.m. mass a few Sunday mornings ago. (For those of you who aren’t Catholic, that simply means I led the congregation in the music for the mass.) I have a love/hate relationship with singing at this time because I have to get up quite early to get there,…

Not Me Monday, 5th Edition

February 16, 2009 by Elaine

It’s time for another edition of “Not Me” Monday, hosted by the multi-talented, multi-tasker, mother of four, Mckmama! I did NOT panic a few times realizing that the hubs and I had NO dinner reservations for Saturday, after our museum outing. I did NOT thank our lucky stars when were able to walk into a…

Weekly Winners 2/15

February 15, 2009 by Elaine

Februray 8 – February 14 Tim and I enjoyed the afternoon together (just the two of us) for Valentine’s Day. We went to the Dallas Museum of Art to see the exhibit on King Tut. It was amazing. We saw artifacts that are around 3400 years old. Amazing, beautiful, gold, wood and glass – spectacular…

Signs of Valentine’s

February 13, 2009 by Elaine

I started making these cookies several years ago when I found the original recipe in a February issue of Martha’s main mag, Living. I made them every year and then I had kids. Now it’s sporadic. But this year I was in the mood and I’ve since found a sugar cookie recipe that is SO…

How I Almost Didn’t Marry Their Daddy

February 12, 2009 by Elaine

A week or so ago I mentioned here that I broke up with Tim 3 weeks before we got engaged. I know that doesn’t sound very romantic, but it did turn out wonderfully, as you could all guess. So here’s how the story goes… The day I decided to do it was New Year’s Day…

WW – Wagie Ride for Tuesday

February 11, 2009 by Elaine

We were a little “late” in getting outside, but on Saturday we joined in remebrance of Tuesday and put the boys in the wagon and went for a walk as a family. It was a good day for it too. Here are the boys, ready to go, with some of their “pals” in tow, as…
