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…

Summertime.
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…

Work perks.
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!

Grammy + bubbles = smiling kids.

Buzz Lighthair.
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…

All you really need is popcorn and lemonade.
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…

My baby is a Pre-K’er!
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…
