As I reported a few days ago, our family has been battling nasty colds (like 99.8% of America, I’m sure.) I’m happy to report that, while we’re not out of the woods yet, we seem to be on the upside of things.
One of my best remedies for fighting off sickness is this great drink supplement called [...]
Brady loves his fruit. LOVES fruit. The boy will eat bowl after bowl if you let him. Connor is turning out to be much the same way.
We recently went on our big monthly stock-up trip to Sam’s Club. We got a good deal on a fresh pineapple, which is a real treat at our house. [...]
Certainly, we’ve all heard of low-carb diets, right? Well, Evan isn’t having it. In fact, the girl does just the opposite. She loves her carbs!
Don’t get me wrong. Her main source of nutrition is still breast milk, with the occasional jar of baby food or rice cereal thrown in… but the girl loves bread. Of [...]
Our family has a unique (and free!) way of celebrating things. We have “family camp outs” — on our living room floor!
Some good family friends of ours have done this for years and we thought it was idea worth stealing. They started doing it when their oldest child was little as an incentive to get [...]
They don’t give you a troubleshooting guide when you give birth to a son, but they should. That and some super glue, a case of those bleach wipes, a lifetime supply of Mr. Clean Magic Erasers and some tongs.
I needed all of the above in the past 24 hours.
Yes, in the last day, my three [...]
Andy has recently proven that he has a good memory. He can memorize Bible verses and soon started asking repeatedly about our address and phone number, both of which are great for him to know. He’s pretty much got our address down (enough that emergency personnel could find us, if need be!) and has memorized [...]
Isn’t it odd how you never realize just how much you say certain phrases until your children start saying them? I’ll never forget the time Andy saw an advertisement for a cruise ship and said, “Mom, that’s a big old honkin’ boat!” Yup. My husband and I have refined, college-educated vocabularies.
Connor has been on to [...]
Not really! Our neice Anna turns five today! Wowza! Isn’t she cute?
Happy Birthday, Little Lady! We love you bunches.
You know those funny videos of dogs barking to the tune of of Jingle Bells? At our house this morning, we could cough the tune.
Yup, it’s that time of the year. Connor and I have had a yucky cold for a few days and, this morning, Andy and Brady woke up with a nasty cough. [...]
I know my blogging isn’t too deep or profound. Most days, my life isn’t much more profound than whether or not Rocket found his home on Little Einsteins. I know, I know… I’m molding young lives for eternity. It just often doesn’t feel like much most of the time.
I’ve blogged about brotherly love, marriage, [...]
