Yesterday we began our two-week countdown till Nathan officially starts Kindergarten. He's ready. I'm totally ready. But, not emotionally. I'm excited at the thrill of him finally delving into "real" school, as he calls it and excited at the possibilities for him. He's super-smart, super-social (hmm, wonder where he gets…

School Supplies . . . Check.
Last week before the boys left town, I took Nathan for his first official school supply shopping spree. I know, I know, I am so sentimental, but I can't help it. I LOVE school supply shopping and since Target had all their junk out already, I decided it would be…

I’m officially a “Boy Mom”!
Yep. That's right. Baby #3 is a BOY!!! But, then again, I already knew that. We had our ultrasound today and we were all ecstatic to find out that our home will once again be blessed with even more testosterone! This is what I get for constantly praying to God…

Mother’s Day recap.
What a fantastic day it turned out to be! Despite the cold, dreary Kansas City weather today, I had all the sunshine I needed. My boys (including my husband) were so sweet and thoughtful today. It started out this morning when Nathan made his way into my room at about…

Not exactly a Circus for 5 year-olds.
I certainly hope I am not the only one out there who feels this way, but I was totally irked by something I heard while listening to the radio today. Let me explain. Britney Spears is in concert tonight in Kansas City and one of our local radio stations was…
