The other day, I took the boys to Betty Brinn where we met their friends, Maddie and Katie, and their mom (my friend), Steph. It was a little chaotic. There are tons of things to see and do, and numerous places to see and do those things. Add a couple of field trips and other […]
A few days ago, I discovered yet another pair of Noah’s jeans were on the verge of tearing at the knee. Seriously?! Anyway, I said something to Noah about it, and he said, “I’m a knee holer!” No kidding.

The other day, it was pretty sunny and the sun was shining in through our […]
This morning, Andy and Noah got out the dominoes. They built a line to knock over, then Noah headed upstairs to get dressed. This is how I found Andy and Caden a few minutes later.
We kept telling Caden to not get too close and to wait for Noah. He was quite patient. I […]
Today was a gorgeous, COLD, sunny day here. On the way home from picking up Noah from school, my car said it was 17 degrees. UGH! It’s March 12!!! But it was incredibly sunny and at this time of year, the sun is much warmer than January, so you can fool yourself into thinking it’s […]
Just after I posted that last post about my laptop not working, my laptop started working. Of course. I’m a pretty firm believer in Murphy’s Law, so it’s only appropriate that this is what happened. So instead of just laying on the sofa, doing sudoku puzzles, while watching Juno with Andy, I’m messing around on […]
So, my three-year-old appears to have a pretty lousy memory. I use the word “appears” because I think it has more to do with his priorities than anything else.
For instance, you could ask him what he had for lunch two hours ago, and he may not remember, probably if it was something he […]
I’m finally calming down. It’s amazing what DVR’d American Idol and Survivor can do for some mental health!
For Lent, I gave up raising my voice to the boys (I know, it’s really supposed to be a sacrifice of something you enjoy, and I definitely don’t enjoy raising my voice, but I do it a […]
Today, the boys and I went sledding with Noah’s friend from preschool, Nathan, his sister Teagan, and their mom, Angie (the same family we went with to the Domes). We picked up the big boys from school, had lunch at McDonald’s, then headed to the sledding hill. It’s the biggest hill the boys have ever […]
Tonight after dinner, Andy was playing on the Wii with Caden. He’s not the greatest at the games yet, but he’s getting there. He likes to try playing baseball, golf, and now, boxing.
Not too long ago, I was talking to my friend, Liz, about our kids playing Wii. She said her three-and-a-half-year-old was really […]
This afternoon, while Noah and I were bowling on the Wii, Caden was sitting on the sofa wearing his foam tiger mask. Yeah, just like it’s the most normal thing in the world. When I got my camera out to take a picture of him sitting there, he started running around the house. Here he […]
