One of my blogger friends, Britta, is so good at finding joy in the little things in life. She often blogs about them and I love how she writes about their impact on her life. I tell you about that because all in all, this week has been uneventful for me. However, there were some … Continue reading Life’s Little Moment’s

Life’s Little Moments
I've said this numerous times, but it is so special when I can get all of my kids together. My oldest had called and asked if we could go to dinner on Father's Day. I told him that I would like that and suggested we go somewhere cheap. My thoughts were to go to a … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
Moments To Remember
I have mentioned how messes raise my anxiety levels. When the kids are playing in slime, or with play dough, or painting I am anxiously awaiting the mess. They have a sandbox that they love to play in. Naturally, the sand winds up on the side porch, in their shoes, on the driveway, in the … Continue reading Moments To Remember
A Couple Dad Stories
Weekend in the Dollhouse? When people ask me if I watch certain shows on television, I have to remind them that I have toddlers at home. The shows I watch are the ones the kids watch: Bluey, Miss Rachel, Work It Out Wombats, Fireman Sam, and my daughter's favorite, Gabby's Dollhouse. On the show, the main character … Continue reading A Couple Dad Stories

I could have used Bob the Builder or Handy Manny today! I would have settled for Tim the Toolman Taylor! Sam bought a climber/triangle/something or other for the kids and it arrived today. I figured it would be an easy thing to put together, especially since the reviews said so. Then, I opened the box … Continue reading This Looks Like a Job For …
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
Mouse Wrecker!
This afternoon before work, I wanted to go for a walk. The kids had been a handful throughout the day and Sam said that she wanted to stay home. I thought it would be a good idea to take the kids and give her a good half hour of quiet. So I loaded up the … Continue reading Mouse Wrecker!
Indian Summer Walks
We've really had a few nice days this week. The temperatures haven't been too cold and the sun has been shining. I guess this is what some would call an Indian Summer. According to the great Wikipedia (LOL): An Indian summer is a period of unseasonably warm, dry weather that sometimes occurs in autumn in … Continue reading Indian Summer Walks
Christmas in September
To say that the past few days have been stressful is an understatement. There have been some very good moments and I tried to just take them all in. However, something was on my mind all weekend. I'm not going to get into detail on that. I could, but I won't. Let me just state … Continue reading Christmas in September
