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 house, he replied that he…

The kids and I made it into Austin on Friday and are really having a great time visiting with family here. Our flight was great, including the wonderful bagels and cream cheese, XM Radio, and raisins. Upon picking us up from the airport, my dad took us to this great hole-in-the-wall Mexican place to pick…

Our first snow has made it's way through Kansas City and it's not even Thanksgiving yet! It's a light dusting but nevertheless, still snow. It's been SO cold today! I had to bust out the boys' new chocolate brown winter coats while we went out today because it was so chilly. Then as we were…

I finally have the kid that draws on walls. William did it and I was so freakin’ pissed! He did it right in front of my eyes too while I was sitting two feet away from him. This is so huge for me because Nathan has NEVER entertained the idea, much less actually written on…

I can’t believe it’s so freakin’ cold out right now when two days ago we were just outdoors enjoying crunching leaves and playing soccer out back. Nathan was insistent that I take a picture of him with his “mad face”. But for the most part we had a great time outdoors. We originally had gone…

Well, it’s almost time to stuff your face with turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, and who knows what else. Are you ready? I came across some pretty interesting facts about Thanksgiving Day and here’s my fave: $3.86 billion Forecast 2007 receipts to farmers from turkey sales. This exceeds the total receipts from sales…

Somebody recently asked me how I stay so fit. Now, let me first say that I would never classify myself as ‘fit‘, but if I seem ‘fit‘ to such people, this would certainly be one of the ways that I would remain so. I was fixing lunch for the kids this afternoon and had them…

I am feeling like crap today. There’s no easy way to put it. Thankfully my wonderful husband got out of bed to feed the kiddos today without hesitation. He’s been taking care of them all day long so that I could sleep. I did actually leave the house at 11 a.m. though to take Nathan…

Random (funny) things Will says on a daily basis: “Puh” = up “Dah” = down “Ersh” = nurse or juice or drink in general “Ssss” = yes “This” = this, or pretty much anything else he doesn’t know the proper word for. “Bah” = bath “Boh” = ball “Bee-ooh” = balloon “Biiee” = bite (as…

I think that’s from the 69 Boyz “Tootsee Roll” song from back in the day but don’t quote me. Anyhow, Will is into dipping lately. The other day I took the kids out for lunch at Panera and I ordered the Broccoli Cheddar soup and Will loved the soup. Only, he ate it by dipping…
