Our summer days are filled with regular trips to the library. Most of the time we're able to fill our canvas and reusable book bags to the brim with colorful reads, exciting chapter books, autobiographies about baseball stars and football stars, and even a few fun DVDs for the occasional…

Yes, there actually ARE times that I keep my mouth shut. Like this one.
Hmmm. Who's that woman, you ask? Ah, well that would be the mom of a (probably 2nd grader) Cardinals little leaguer who just struck out. Can I just say the expression "hold your tongue" doesn't even begin to describe what I had to do so that I didn't go off…

Moments
This evening after dinner I took all three boys up for bathtime while my wonderful husband mowed the lawn. Usually I just end up giving Jacob a quick bath separately and the other two shower more often than bathe, especially on school nights. But, I am so glad we opted…

Tastes of Spring
Last week the weather here was insanely gorgeous! So unseasonably nice and I have never, ever, ever, ever been more ready for warmer weather! William, Jacob, and I took a few moments to enjoy the niceness from Mother Nature, and it was such a treat! Does blowing bubbles ever get…

Sirius-ly entertaining
So, it's been just over a month since hubby and I got our new Tahoe that I am IN. LOVE. WITH. Seriously. Besides the uber-cool bells and whistles it has, I have to say that the most enjoyable feature is undoubtedly the Sirius XM satellite radio programming! I never in…
