Mothers, Mothers Everywhere!
In the last few weeks I have listened to so much and read a lot and felt so much about Motherhood. Because of that and also because of the phase I am at in my life, the meaning behind the act of Motherhood seems to be taking on new life for me. Recently I came to the epiphany that I…
The Happy Mama Movement Begins!
My kids surprise me sometimes. I mean, actually, they surprise me a lot. And of course not always in a way I want to be surprised. Sometimes they come around the corner in a Batman mask to purposely surprise me and I pee a little. That way is definitely not my favorite. And sometimes they…
Name That Kindergartener
Update: We have our winners! Congratulations to Amy Pike, the grand prize winner of a $300 Amazon gift card! Runners up were Renee and Julie! Thanks to everyone who played along – we hope you had fun! So, did you guess me right? It was pretty easy. Same “squinty” eyes as always. 😉 And here…
Bloggy Boot Camp, Round 1
I have a lot to say about this “little” conference. And when I use the word “little” I only mean it in the sense that it has a smaller attendance per city (since it has and will be in a total of 10 places, I think) and in that it is a one-day conference. I…
New Friends, New Places
Last Friday I loaded up the kids and headed for Alexandria. Louisiana, that is. Don’t my children look just thrilled? They really were, it was just very sunny. Oh and apparently Baby K was already scopin’ the animals… There’s a zoo there and we met up with Heather and her kidlets. Aren’t they cute?? In…
I’ve Returned…
…to home and to blogging. My weekend was wonderful, relaxing, hilarious and a little painful (I’ll explain) and just a beautiful, fun time with good friends. There’s a lot to say and many pictures to post. But some will have to wait because frankly, I’m adjusting back to reality now that my MIL and BIL…
Medicine Cabinet Meme
My good pal Supermommy @ Three Boys One Mommy decided it would be a good idea to peek into some of our medicine cabinets. (BTW, I KNOW we are good pals because we are friends on Facebook. So there.) After I was done blog-hopping, twittering and checking email the night after I saw her post,…
You Know, This Blogging Thing is Kinda Fun
So, I’ve been blogging for over two years now but it’s only been about a year that I really started getting involved in this community of woman bloggers (and a few guys too!) that continues to propagate itself (I ‘m constantly amazed at the new blogs I find EVERY. DAY.) The other day when I…
Christmas Eve, Good…
Christmas Day… not so much. Our Christmas was good until early Christmas Day morning. I have been debating in my head whether or not to mention that tid bit here on the blog. But the fact of the matter is, this is a record of our life and well, this one will definitely go down…
