Mardi Gras is a pretty big deal around here. Many balls have already taken place (not that I was invited to any, whatever…) and they start baking King Cakes pretty much right after Christmas. What would you like in yours? Strawberry, chocolate, Bavarian cream? Yeah. One of each please. Also, the parades even started this…
Tired.
One tear falls down my cheek as I look over at my almost empty wine glass. I decide if I even want the last sip and my brain says, “why waste it?” So I grab the glass and let the rest of the red liquid slide down my throat. I’m tired. If I looked in…
Just One Day
I have wanted to do this for a long, long time and I finally did it – I documented an entire day in photos! I used both my Nikon D90 and my iPhone 4S, for when we were out-and-about. This was our day last Thursday, from beginning to end. I’ll let the pics speak for…
Time
I have three hours to myself right now as I lay here and type. Actually it’s down to about two hours and 20 minutes. I’m not feeling so “hot” today and Tim left for a guys trip/business trip and it’s just me and the kiddos for a few days. We have plans to hit up…
Life Shotz – A Review
Do you feel tired a lot of the time? Do you wonder what is the best way to get all those vitamins and minerals that are recommended for our healthy bodies? Do you want to be in a better mood around your kids and family? Well… I have a friend from junior high and high…
My Little Spies
Last Friday afternoon the boys were in the living room playing on the Wii for a bit. I usually let them play some after a long week at school. But around 4:30 I hollered from the kitchen into the living room and told them it was time for our walk. From B: “Okay, let’s go….
Pitter Patter
When we moved into this house a little over 3.5 years ago I was not very happy to be here. I could not seem to figure out all the different, crazy light switches quickly enough and kept thinking that the one in our closet should be on the left side and not the right. The…
Passing on the Good
Last Tuesday I was a little bit surprised when I received an email from Vanessa. And in the first few sentences I was a little stunned as I read this… “So every so often I think about you and I forget that I don’t know you in real life. I just wanted to say thank…
Nap Talk (and a cutie-patootie video)
So, one of the last things my last baby has yet to outgrow is the NAP. K is quickly approaching 3 and half years old (shiz, how did THAT, happen!?!) and her brothers both stopped napping a little after 3 years old so this is kinda foreign to me. She’s still going pretty strong and…
48 Questions (old school blog style)
I saw this on my adorable friend Emily’s blog and she stole it from the awesome Zakary who hijacked it from another blog and yeah, it’s like an old fashioned (circa 2008) kinda meme. I tweeted back in December that I think we need a little of this, blog posts like they used to be, back…
