For those of you in KC, you’ll remember back to a couple of weekends ago when we had that SUPER-nice day outside. Perfect picnic and kite-flying weather. The kids and I headed to a local park and had our first picnic of the season. Here’s hoping there’s tons more to come! ♥

Today's been a day of recovery for us here at the T household. Yesterday morning I woke up feeling totally off. I could tell it was much more than just morning/pregnancy sickness. We skipped Will's Kindermusik class and I didn't get out of bed until about 10:30. As I was showering I could really feel…

Friday N's school invited everyone out to a surprise performance to wrap-up Catholic Schools Week. We were all told to arrive at 9:30 a.m. in the gym but were given NO clue as to what the performance would be. For a moment I thought it might be something like a performance by either my friend Jim,…

The other day when my mom was in town we all took a trip over to the Great Mall. My original intention was to look for scarves for the boys since N has "been wanting one his whole life!" (his words, not mine). Of course with Grammy around, we didn't just stick to the shopping…

Fortunately both N & W were able to watch the President's inauguration today at home just before lunchtime. N knew who Obama was the minute his face was shown on the TV screen.

My ears just got to experience this . . . N: "You're the best-est mom ever. Out of everyone in the whole wide world, I love you the most." And what's more, wanna know what I did to deserve that? Nothing. That's right. I got those sweet words for just sitting here while watching Toy…

The kids and I partook in a carriage ride through a nearby shopping center this Saturday. Talk about fun! And, it was FREE, so that was even better! We almost went back again on Sunday but temps were so frigid so we decided against it. The weather was perfect for the carriage ride – not…

This past Sunday the kids and I attended the much anticipated Nutracker Tea Party. The show has been sold out for weeks and I was so thrilled to help promote it as a sponsor. In exhcange I received a sponsor table for ten and we invited our friends Alexander, John Paul, and Cole and of…

Today while having lunch, N said to me, "Mom, from now on don't cut off the crusts from my pb & j because I love the crusts now." Music to my ears. Just one less step I have to go through. I am so thankful N has opened up his range of possibilites of things…

My little N has once again, made me a proud mom today. D and I met with his Pre-K for our parent/teacher conference and we were all three smiling from ear-to-ear while we visited about N's progress as a Pre-K'er. WARNING: This is where I will rightfully brag. Some of the things Mrs. Y said…
