I’ve decided to try and keep a booklist, mostly for posterity so I won’t forget what I’ve read. Hopefully you’ll be encouraged to check a few of these good reads out for yourself or your kiddos!

about
I created this blog to mostly serve as my memory for the future. Since I’ve become a mother, my mind has of course left me. I also wanted this page to help my friends and family stay on top of our busy lives. I want this blog to be about…

A new look, yes.
It was out with the old on my previous hacked blog theme. Hope you’ll enjoy the newly hacked version as much as I will. I am sure I’ll be bored of it by next week.

Still not hot enough outside, but I’ll survive.
Well, it’s still not hot enough here for swimming, at least by my standards, but today shaped up to be pretty summer-like and fun. Nathan started his Spanish camp today and seemed to have a great time. As his maestra was evaluating his current level, I overheard him count from…

Sick kiddos are no fun.
Well, Nathan is doing a little better today. Aside from blowing chunks while we were in line at Sweet Tomatoes, he’s been able to keep down some yogurt, banana, and Pedialyte. I think he’s on the slow road to recovery. He’s gotten a little more energy back this afternoon and…
