My mom came into town today to celebrate my birthday with me and of course, see the kiddos. I am so excited that she’s here, even if it’s just for a short visit. Of course the kids got bombarded with goodies (as if it were their birthday) the moment she arrived. Will finally got his…

My friend Traci showed up on my doorstep with these this afternoon. She and I share the same birthday, too! This totally made my day!

Today after picking up N8 from preschool and having lunch, I decided to run my car through the car wash. I mean, it was like sixty-something degrees and sunny, after all, which TOTALLY put me in the mood of driving a clean car with the sunroof open. Nathan had reminded me that when he was…

Last night Nathan begged me to make him an astronaut outfit out of a Target paper bag. And, you know me – always looking for ways to reuse and recycle. Here’s the madness that ensued afterwards: Nathan’s costume was complete with a rocket blaster drawn on the back. By the end of the evening they…

Today Nathan got his first issue of Lego Magazine. I handed it to him in the car on the way to someplace and he was enthralled the entire way. They’ve got fun new ideas for building things with Legos, mazes, word searches, etc. You can get a free two-year subscription here.
