• Some Kindermusik fun.

    Will wrapped up his second semester of KM last Thursday.  Since N8 is out of school for summer, he of course came along with us.  I seized the opportunity to get some pics of Will in his class since I’d not done so before. He loves his baby bells.  He actually…

  • Krispy Kreme tour.

    Last week a group of us visited the Krispy Kreme to see how they make doughnuts.  Afterwards, they gave everyone a free one!  There were way too many kids there and as such was too crowded but it definitely was worth it for the freebie. Gotta love those sprinkles.

  • The King is missing, but it could be worse.

    The other night Nathan and I made a desperate attempt at making sure we accounted for all of his cars.  We’ve collected so many I’ve forgotten which ones we have. Anyway, we’d lined them up and classified them by color before but there were fewer then.  Can you tell what…

  • UGH! Update to the no-blogedness.

    Nathan is sick.  He must have a stomach bug.  He’s vomited twice since this afternoon and has a 101 temp.  We’re trying to keep ice chips down for a few hours and then we’ll see what the doc says.  My poor baby.

  • So freakin’ busy.

    I have tons going on so blogging has taken a backseat.  Here are some of the goings-on: enjoying my mom visiting this weekend baking yummy banana bread doing yardwork cleaning house and rearranging stuff trying to get Nathan’s busy summer schedule arranged sidewalk chalk (actually, driveway chalk) laundry, laundry, oh…

  • Everyone benefits from the Sam’s Club membership.

    Nathan has started to really get into these frequent Sam’s Club trips that have become routine for us.  Today after Will took his early afternoon nap, I corralled both boys into the car and we headed out to pick up a few essentials. It is so hard to not spend every last dime…

  • A whole new meaning to going green.

    Well, it was another fabulous day here at the MP household.  After enjoying a thoroughly filling lunch at Red Robin we took the kiddos to see Shrek the Third since Nathan’s nap schedule made us miss the sneak preview we had free passes to a few weeks ago. We actually…

  • Could this day get any better?

    Today’s been an all around great day.  After chompin’ on a quick breakfast this morning the boys and I headed out for a walk (something we’ve been doin a lot of lately) over to my friend Karen’s house (who lives just on the street behind us) to pick up a…

  • Birthday Shout-Out

    Happy 26th birthday to my baby sister, Sarah.  Man, you’re gettin’ old!  Over the years you’ve gotten nerdier but cuter of course and now, well, you’re just a beautiful woman inside and out and I am so proud to be your sister.  Anyway, hope you have a great day spending your first birthday…
