Just a quick note because I’ve been too busy, and I miss blogging! I had started two posts about last weekend, but haven’t had the time to finish either one – hopefully I will soon! It’s been really difficult to blog with a 17-month-old who only wants to climb on me and bang on my […]

Made you look! Did you think I was going to say we were awaiting the arrival of our 5th child? No such luck – probably wouldn’t declare it for the first time on a blog anyway. I just wanted to share my son’s first professional haircut that made everyone joke about him being a different
My almost 17-month-old son has started using “tools”. When we put up the Christmas decorations, he started pulling chairs away from the table, pushing them over to the bookcase to try to climb and get at the nativity. Yesterday, he took down a wall hanging and began to use the hanger rod as a spoon
It’s official – there is a flu wreaking havoc in our house. I don’t know if it’s H1N1, but all the signs are there. Our middle-schooler came down with it Friday night, and she’s been in bed ever since. She had to miss a birthday party and church this weekend, and she won’t be going
Our 3-year-old Disney is really good at puzzles. Last night, she tried her first 63-piece puzzle, but she didn’t quite finish it: She got a pretty good start – that puzzle is particularly difficult. We were all enjoying a wonderfully peaceful evening since our little 5-year-old instigator had her first sleepover at a friend’s house.

I knew it was going to be a busy day today before I even woke up, and I was dreading having to get up early. I am very lucky (thanks to my wonderful husband) that I don’t have to get up early every day; I’m not a morning person. But today there was an early

But didn’t school JUST start? And wasn’t the kids’ first weekend a THREE day weekend? Yes and yes. But to be fair (pun intended), this 4-day weekend was not planned in advance, well not entirely, anyway. It began with Monday being Fair Day for the kids – our county fair opens tomorrow, and the kids

I realized that I hadn’t emptied my camera in awhile, so when I finally did, I found some great pictures! Told you it was a busy Labor Day weekend! The girls dressed Charity up like a princess – her blue eye always gets photographic red-eye, but she actually let the kids dress her up! Wonder

I did not go to Walmart yesterday, but I still have enough of a complaint to sit and write a blog post about the place! In case you’ve missed my other (many) Walmart rants, I’ll save you the search and link to a few of the various episodes depicting the times they wronged me. Like
