Lemme just lay it all out there and say that my kids are driving me CUH-RAY-ZEE with the things they want to "play" these days! Here's what real life is like with two rambunctious boys: Playing fight – this consists of the boys running at each other like two cavemen and knocking each other to…

This weekend has flown by! On Friday the boys and I headed over to a friend's who was hosting an all-boys water fun backyard bash. None of the kids wanted to leave by the time the afternoon had come to a close. They played tons of fun water games like water balloon toss, and they had…

In today's edition of Five Things I'm naming my top five to-dos before summer officially comes to a close. I can't believe I'm actually saying that! I haven't had enough use of my flip-flops yet! I'm praying I can still wear them in October. Yeah, right! The kids and I saw this place while on…

Where do I begin? Today was a super-cool day for the kids, my mom, and I. First, we started out by driving over to catch the MAX bus over to Crown Center Square. Riding the bus would've been enough excitement in and of itself. Seriously. The boys were SO, SO, SO thrilled to be riding…

I am talking about W’s latest little phrase, “Fine, boy!” It’s one of those you have to really hear to appreciate though. He says so irritatingly cute, like how you would say “whatever” to someone. So, I spend most of my days walking around the house mimicking him and his “fiyyeee, boyee” phraseology.

N barely making it through the parking garage with a broken flip-flop! Poor thing! Mom took this pic of the kids and I on the way to our shopping excursion while I was riding squished in the back of her car! I am convinced now more than ever that I need to get myself to…

Sometimes it's just too steamy to get outside, but we somehow still find time to sit and enjoy the outdoors from inside.
