Perfect Time For Jumpin’

While grandma was here this week, she bought the kids a trampoline. The first day that it was put together (minus the netting, which was put on a couple of days later), it was sunset and warm and perfect for taking pictures.Because I’m still in spring cleaning mode and tired […]

Project 365, Week 11

Oh my gosh. This week has been craziness. My mother-in-law came last Monday and stayed until Saturday morning, and while she was here, we did a complete overhaul on, like, half the house. After she left, I was all kinds of motivated, so I kept going on bedrooms and closets. […]

The Weight Of It All

I’m linking up with Shell for the first time this week. I’ve talked a lot about Essie’s Celiac diagnosis (if you’re sick of hearing about it…sorry.) but I haven’t really talked about how I’m feeling about it.Our Essie will be three in July. The day I got the call that […]

This Is Hard, Yo. #iPPP

Henry (the lucky little booger) got to go see The Lorax last week during a class field trip. And since I had been promising to take the kids to see it since I met him at Blissdom, T. and I took just the girls over the weekend. Our date started out pretty […]

Great Expectations: Rach of Life Ever Since

Even though Rach recently changed the name of her blog to Life Ever Since, I still think of her as “Donut’s Mama”. That first twitter-er that you meet just kind of sticks, you know? The little diva that she writes about, her “Donut”, is freshly birthday-ed (meaning, of course, that she just turned ONE).  Her […]

Gluten Free Friday: Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that learning how to cook completely gluten free is a huge adjustment. Since we learned that our two year old, Essie, has celiac disease, I decided to make the change to a gluten free diet a household one, and have been reading books, talking […]

11 Months

That’s hard to write. In less than a month, our (quite possibly last) baby will be a year old. It’s making me all kinds of emotional. Ervin is standing on his own now, cruising all over the furniture, and (much to my chagrin) taking one or two steps here and […]

Teaching the Kids About Helping Others

When I sat down to sign up for Members Unite, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I knew it was a great idea…you get to donate a little money each month (I know I can give up one Starbucks coffee a month if it means sending that five dollars to […]
