Nathan and William officially have their first car. And, they of course have to share it. Nathan was quite the impressive driver jumping right in and giving Will a ride in the driveway and on the grass. He’s still got to get the hang of steering AND pressing the gas pedal all at the same…

I received a call two days ago from a gal at Whole Foods that they’d drawn my name out of those who had entered and I’d won a fishing rod. Kind of offbeat, I know, considering I’ve never gone fishing in my life. But, I remember being there about a month or so ago and…

SCORE! We’ve recently been watching a ton of EWTN programming for kids and as such, Nathan’s been asking about their games since they’re plugged between all the kids episodes. He’s LOVING these new computer games and so am I!

This morning while fixing my hair and makeup Nathan was watching me while playing with his little stuffed toy caterpillar that he won from Worlds of Fun the other night. He looks up at me (I can see him in the mirror) and says, “Mommy, you look so gorgeous, I think you’re gonna turn into…

The kids and I headed out this morning at about 9.45 over to the Village Fest in Prairie Village. From the website, I knew it would be tons more fun than our neighborhood’s bike parade and when I asked Nathan which he preferred to go to, he of course said the festival. Especially since cotton…

Thank GOD the sun finally showed today. I was really about to lose it today if the rain had continued. We’ve already got some weird shroom fungus growing in next to my calla lillies and I am NOT happy about it! Damn rain. Anyway, after this morning’s cleaning frenzy I decided to reward the kids…

Me to Nathan while sitting on the couch watching he and Will play in their new caterpillar tunnel: “Nathan, smell your brother’s butt and see if he’s got poop for me, please.” Me again, to Nathan after he put on my flip-flops and proclaimed, “Look at me, I’m a mommy!” Me: “Oh, I see! Now…

Dare I say it but Will seems to be over his water funk. Today he was such a fish even getting into the baby ring at the pool. We were there all day long again with Nathan’s friend Cole and his mommy. We arrived at about 11:45 this morning and ate a quick picnic lunch…

Today after the Little Angels kids program at church, we were invited to join Nina and her boys Liam and Colm for lunch over at Beach Bums Island Cartoon Cafe. This place is WAY cool and just within walking distance from our house. It’s practically in our backyard. Anyway, I really hope the community starts…
