I Forgot To Tell You

I'm finally getting back into a normal routine again. Last week I had a couple nights off work for Ella's birthday and all the days have been running together. Here are a few things I neglected to post about over the past couple days. PAP for the Little Man Last Wednesday, Andrew was back at … Continue reading I Forgot To Tell You →

She’s a “Threenager”

Yesterday, Ella celebrated her 3rd birthday. It was a pretty busy day! She woke up and had a breakfast picnic. Her choice of breakfast food? A grilled cheese sandwich! After I got home from a dentist appointment (that I should have cancelled), we piled in the car and we took a trip up to the … Continue reading She’s a “Threenager” →

A Fun Family Night

Because of work schedules, it is not often that I get a night with the family. I swapped nights with a coworker because I had hoped to go to a daddy daughter dance with Ella. Tickets went fast and I was put on a wait list for that, and it never panned out. However, the … Continue reading A Fun Family Night →

Hodge Podge of Highlights

The past week has been fairly typical. Nothing too out of the ordinary for me. There have been some nice highlights, however. Sunday, we got a little snow. Sam promised the kids that we could go out and play in it. So we all bundled up and went outside as the snow fell. Andrew LOVES … Continue reading Hodge Podge of Highlights →

Macaroni and Beans!

I have never been diagnosed with OCD. That being said, I do tend to be a creature of habit. I tend to take the same way to work every day, I like my coffee the same way every day, and such, but I don't think I am OCD. My books and DVDs are NOT alphabetized, … Continue reading Macaroni and Beans! →

Breakfast Fun

For the most part, it was a normal morning. Andrew was up first, followed almost immediately by Ella. As I was getting them out of bed, Sam came home from work. Sam recapped her night at work with me and the kids were taking turns being in her arms. During this time we asked what … Continue reading Breakfast Fun →

Do Kids Need This Crap (Pun Intended)??

The above picture is a poop emoji. For those who have never seen it before, it is part of our pop culture now. You can literally type "poop" in a text message and this emoji becomes an option for you to insert into your conversation. I suppose I understand certain scenarios where this emoji would … Continue reading Do Kids Need This Crap (Pun Intended)?? →

Christmas 2022 – A Look Back

Hello, my friends. When I last blogged, we were gearing up for a big snow storm. While we didn't get as much as they were saying, roads were still dangerous and as a bonus we got our white Christmas. I had to laugh at something I saw on Facebook, and had to share here. This … Continue reading Christmas 2022 – A Look Back →

Pre-Holiday Weekend Wrap Up

It is hard to believe that we are just 4 days away from Christmas. Someone observed that time moves a whole lot faster in December if you are an adult. This is so true! As a kid, it seemed to crawl by as we waited for Christmas. SNOW! This weekend kept us pretty busy. We … Continue reading Pre-Holiday Weekend Wrap Up →

2022 Holiday Photo Shoot

We were supposed to get some quick holiday photos last week. The day before our appointment, the kids were still under the weather. I made the call to our photographer and asked if we could either reschedule the session or put the money toward our future appointment for Ella's birthday pictures. She graciously said that … Continue reading 2022 Holiday Photo Shoot →
