Took the kids to see Horton Hears a Who today. Ok, so the title of the blog is a bit misleading… it wasn’t really boring. I am just so tired that I’m 2 for 2 in the falling asleep in the movie theater tally this week. I actually liked what I saw of the movie. With […]

No one likes to lose an hour of sleep. Usually I take it as it comes, however, because I do enjoy the extra hour of daylight. This year is another story. The kids have NOT adjusted well to the time change AT ALL! My oldest, an 8-year-old, comes into our bedroom EVERY morning and whispers,

Bet you think this is going to be about one of my kids, don’t ya? Well, the truth is, they’re all good. Unless you count yesterday, when #2 and #3 were acting up… but it was another snow day, so I think they had cabin fever. And luckily for me, my friend and neighbor called

Yet another snow day is upon us… that makes #6 for us this year, and it’s now officially time to start making them up in the summer. Which I guess is good news for me, because the kids now have at least 1 extra day to attend school in the summer, near the time when
She finally did it! Tonight was Disney’s first serious attempt at walking! Well, she has tried before, but tonight she was doing it over and over, 5 steps or more at a time! I tried to get it on video, but as soon as I took out the camera, she got all distracted and started

Ok, with a baby on the way, I’ve got baby names on the brain. With 3 girls already, we’ve exhausted our supply of favorite girls’ names. Since we just found out this one is also most likely a girl, we have been pondering ways to name the baby. Our first 3 all have middle names
Did you catch Barney today? Probably not… but I did so I’ll fill you in. Baby Bop lost her blankie, prompting much song and dance. Which got me to thinking… how old is too old for a blankie? Actually, this blog was inspired by my oldest daughter who is 8 and still has a blankie.
