• There’s no business like snow business!

    WOW! We awoke to the fabulous white stuff this morning before heading out to violin lessons. Afterwards, we went out for lunch and then took David to get a much needed haircut – guess I’ll have to wait on mine, but that’s okay. After having lunch out we came home…

  • DDD: Day four

    Today we had great fun getting out our foamie Christmas trees and redecorating them. Nathan and Will were so proud when they were all finished. The stars were the tricky parts – they kept falling off!

  • Yet another transition.

    Here’s what we spent all evening after dinner doing: changing Will’s crib into a day/toddler bed for him! He woke up several times last night and each time I went in to get him, he had one leg hanging way over the drop rail of the crib. I am sure…

  • It snot fun.

    Nathan and Will have been battling a mild cold since Thanksgiving and a couple of days ago it turned into a cough. Yesterday Nathan came home from school with almost no voice and today he sounds like a preschool version of Rod Stewart. So much so that we had to…

  • DDD: Day three

    We celebrated July at Christmas today! We did one of our favorite things…..made and drank lemonade! Will was busying himself with getting into the Cheerios box until it came time to taste test, though. Afterwards, we enjoyed popping up window #3 on our Olive, the other Reindeer Advent calendar. It…

  • Nathan’s friends.

  • DDD: Day two

    December 2 Today our Advent event-of-the-day was decorating Nathan’s Christmas tree in his room. He also enjoyed putting out his nativity set that he received last year. It’s become a great tradition for us. Then we all had some great fun with the reindeer antlers pretending to be Rudolph and…

  • I hate reruns.

    Tonight’s Grey’s Anatomy was a rerun. Where in the heck did that come from? It was SO out of nowhere. I was expecting a NEW episode this week and have been sorely disappointed. What is the point in reruns anyway? If you didn’t have the sense to DVR the episode…

  • Four year-old’s obsession.

    Nathan is OBSESSED with having a sleepover sometime soon. He’s been talking about it for weeks! At first it started out with him wanting to call his classmate, Eric, for a sleepover. Then, when I told him that his mommy might feel that he’s too young to sleepover at our…
