Number 4 is on the way, which would account for things being very quiet on the blog-front as of late. The toilet and I are kinda besties right now. And on good days I figure I better focus on my neglected children rather than blogging. But to help get me through the rough first couple months I’ve been compiling a list to humor myself. Life always seems a bit easier to handle if you can laugh at it, right? I tried to keep the more graphic elements of my misery off the list, you know, because who wants to read about my toilet adventures? … Read the rest

Alright. So summer…. it’s a rough one I’m not gonna lie. Most of this stems from the fact that Sweet Hubby works 12 hour days, 7 days a week through the summer time. In other words, I’m on my own. All that magical summer amazing-ness that is supposed to happen… all those trips, family reunions, vacations… yup- its all up to me! … Read the rest
Summer Fun Kit: More Memories & Less Hair-Pulling This Summer
Who’s excited for summer?! Does it fill you with a wave of mixed emotions or is that just me? On one hand I am SO looking forward to not having to rouse my children at 7am every morning and have a break from all the drop offs and pick ups (not to mention school lunches!). On the other hand the thought of being with my children all day every day for 2 months seems.. a bit… daunting.

So it’s not so much that I forgot about St Patrick’s day, more that I was just going to let it pass un-noticed. You know, squished between Youngest’s circus birthday and Easter, something had to give! But then the night before Oldest spent all evening making Leprechaun traps and conjuring up all kinds of Leprechaun scenarios. He said he was bringing his trap to school the next day to set it up. His trap was more of a box..… Read the rest
Second Turns 4!
One of our “must-do” events to celebrate every birthday in our family is a photoshoot! I’m kinda a wanna-be photographer (I go by the rule of the 100s….for every 100 photos I take there is one good one) and I love capturing exactly the way they look at each age. Let’s be real, it never happens ON their birthday. But I try really hard to make sure it happens sometime during their birthday month.
We were finally able to do Second’s photoshoot last weekend. Handsome Hubby gave me a “oh boy whachu got going on in that brain of yours” look when I asked him if he would go make a mud pit for me. … Read the rest
