I was able to score gas for $3.19 a gallon today at Costco in my neck of the woods. How about you? What are gas prices like in your 'hood? I thought this might make a good meme for the blogosphere, so if you're reading this, post the meme on…

My little fish.
N is really enjoying his swim lessons. They're almost over for this session but in the few short weeks he's had them, I have seen such a noticeable improvement in his confidence level while he's in the water. I always knew he had the technique down, but I don't think…

New blog editorial goes bust.
I've had a blog post ready for publishing since last week, but since my computer died just before then, I had to put it on the backburner. It's a new regular feature I am hoping to host here every Monday. Since I wasn't able to get my new computer up…

Backyardigans LIVE!
D and I took the kids to see the Backyardigans show today at the Midland. The show was somewhat entertaining in my opinion, but the kids seemed to really enjoy it. I suppose that's really all that matters.

Blogging hiatus may be in sight.
It's going to be a bit tricky to keep up with blogging over the next few days since I am down to one computer. That's right peeps – my laptop crashed yet again last night. Thankfully, I was able to (with the help of my wonderfully smart and tech-savvy husband)…

What we’re reading.
Our reading habits totally go in cycles around here, as I am sure it does for most families. Right now the kids have really been digging these books: Do Stars Have Points? – N recently checked this out from his school library and D has been wonderfully reading it…

Five Things: A Mom’s Courage.
Going into the mall or other dedicated shopping establishment with your kid(s) and without a stroller. Showing up for a playdate someplace as the only mom who didn't bring snacks for her kid(s). Grocery shopping without a container of Cheerios. Taking your kid(s) with you to go bra shopping. And…
