This morning, we were able to start our day in one of my favorite ways-the boys climbing into bed (nicely waiting until after the clock says “7-zero-zero” to come in our room) and all of us snuggling. Then off to breakfast, and no other agenda for a few hours. We cleaned up a bit, built […] A couple of months ago, Andy and I started talking about taking the boys to Chicago. We thought they’d enjoy the Shedd Aquarium and the Field Museum. This was our weekend to go, and we couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. We headed out early Saturday morning to drive down. We endured the dreaded […] I’m sorry to get all “Mommy” on you all, but I have to vent a bit. I’m sick of potty training. It’s so frustrating! (Sorry Mom!) It’s also irritating, annoying, exhausting, and turning me into a mean mommy! Needless to say, Caden is testing us. Well, I think I failed. He doesn’t tell us when […] For class tonight, we were supposed to research famous photographers and emulate their work. I don’t think I did a very good job, but I had fun taking pictures today. Caden and I braved the cold (and it was coooooold) to get some fun shots. I kept him amused, and warm, by having him run […] For the past couple of months, Caden and I have spent some quality time together at a Park and Rec music class. We’re in class with the little sisters of two of Noah’s school friends. It has really been fun. One week, Caden wanted nothing to do with me because he wanted to sit by […] Today we braved the weather to take the boys to the Badger football game vs. Minnesota. It was about 38 degrees with some wind and occasional flurries. That’s pretty chilly for sitting outside at a football game! But the boys did great! And we won, which made it that much better. Before the game, we […] Caden has a way of personifying any inanimate object. His Big Blue Blankie always wants hugs and kisses. Caden calls “him” his “best big blue blankie in the whole world!” He says his cars are his friends. Tonight, he had collected 5 cars and lined them up in a row. I was taking pictures of […] …can it be 72 degrees on November 5, one degree short of the record, only to be expecting, based on the forecast, 40 degrees for a high and snow by November 8. It really sucks when you know that today is the last nice day we’ll probably see until April or May! But we’ve enjoyed […] This afternoon, I went to my parents’ house to pick up the boys after my day at work. As I said in my last post, there are a ton of kids on my parents’ court, so the boys love Monday afternoons. As I pulled into the court, I was almost hit head-on by a Barbie […] It definitely is NOT my birthday anymore. I know this because my birthday gift from my boys-a day of good behavior-is in the past! It’s been a rough day. But we’re managing. And we’ve had some laughs. While the boys were getting dressed this morning, they were playing one of their CDs in their room. […] |
