Today the kids and I made use of some of the goodies I picked up a while back at the Target dollar spot. They were these little capsules that you put into warm water and let sit for a few minutes until finally they turn into fun foamie dinosaurs. The boys had fun doing one…
Today we lived the epitome of a summer day here at the T household. The kids and I busted out our kiddie swimming pools and wacky sprinkler thingy and I am not too proud to say that even I enjoyed a few runs through the sprinkler with the kids! This was just the sort of…
Okay, as if the cookie bouquet weren’t enough, today the gal I’ve been working with at the media/marketing firm sent me this little goodie as a thank you! As if my kids don’t have enough computer games and movie soundtracks to keep them occupied. They will love this little surprise, though!
Today was an exciting (and long!) day for the T household. Of course, when does it not feel hectic around here? After heading home from a birthday party this afternoon, the kids and I took a two-hour nap! I have no idea why I felt the need to sleep so darn much but was definitely…
This is the way my boys love to eat apples! This one was especially crisp and delish! What's your favorite summertime fruit?

This morning I took the boys to the summer reading kickoff celebration at the park to mark the beginning of the summer reading season. I wish I would’ve taken my camera because there was so much great stuff going on. In addition to the boys meeting friends and playing on the playground, they did some…
Today the boys got their official summer season haircut – the infamous buzz cut. They love it. I love them, but they do have damn good hair and I like it long and shaggy. But, they do get so sweaty during bedtime and just in general out in the heat so the haircuts do make…
Today I ventured out and took the kids to the Turkey Creek Festival in a nearby local town. I had heard there would be lots of [free] stuff for the kids and it was also toasty and hot outside [just the way I like it], so I decided it’d be a good fit. For the…
Where does the time go, seriously? It feels like just yesterday I was wiping his fuzzy behind with newborn baby wipes and sponge bathing him in my bathroom sink. And here we are – today – Nathan’s last day of preschool. He’s been through the 3 year-old program, now the 4 year-old, and this fall…
