It’s a New Year

January 1, 2010

Ahhh, the wonderful New Year’s post! I’ve read so many of them today already.  It really doesn’t feel quite like a new year yet, maybe it will on Monday when we get into the normal routine of things.  We had a wonderful Christmas break though. I read tons of books on my new Kindle (love [...]

Family Girls Night

December 23, 2009

My Mom and her sisters, sister-in-law, and friends have always had fun martini nights.  The younger ‘children’ have always been sad to watch them go because we wanted to join them!! Well, we are now all old enough to do so.  Well, except for Dana.  Sadly, a few of the girl cousins were [...]

Wordless Wednesday – Turbo

December 23, 2009

RIP Turbo
9/1/2000 – 11/30/2009
I’m not good at wordless posts… (Obviously…) This was taken in 2005, the night of Sam’s birth, I believe.  The husband went home late at night to set up a few things and he snapped this picture of the boys.  It was pointed out that Turbo died 9 years to the day [...]

My Four Year Old

December 18, 2009

My baby turned four a few weeks ago! I can’t believe how old she is.  She suddenly seems so much more grown up. She can write her name, tell jokes, do some addition, has lots of different friends, and is such a sweet and helpful girl.

She had a week full of parties and birthday fun times and I think [...]

Cranky Griffin

November 22, 2009

Griffin is a huge bear when he wakes up. Most usually from his nap and he only is happy after zoning out on some Dora for a bit after.  He cries and whines and takes forever to settle down.  I’ve found that when he is happy? It’s after a three hour nap. Since he usually [...]

Pavilions Rules

* Free $$ Giveaway Down Below If you can get through my ramblings…
There was a passionate argument going around the preschool room at our Halloween party about which store we shopped in.  All the kids had their own opinion about their favorite store. The parents were chiming in too. There are some weeks [...]

Griffin – The 18 Month old Comedian

November 12, 2009

Griffin is developing his personality every day.  I think he’s going to be a comedian, like his Papa. The faces he makes are soooo funny! Especially when it’s dinner time and he wants to get out of eating – since he never eats – and make us laugh instead.  I don’t know where he got [...]

Sam’s Halloween Parties

October 29, 2009

Wow, these kids really live it up. They run around, play, get tons of treats and toys, and then get to take a nap and do it all over again when they get up.
And during the last week in October, that just doubles in craziness! LOL
We have actually had only two parties this week but [...]

Busy Week! Hubby’s Big Birthday

October 29, 2009

Last weekend we had a fabulous time as I threw a surprise birthday party for hubby! I did a pretty good job on the surprise (I am SUPER terrible at surprises…) up until the last 10 minutes where I did some uncharacteristic things. Then, when we tried to spring it on him, I should have really just [...]

Cuteness Can Not Be Denied

October 8, 2009

Today was a most fabulous day.  It was pretty busy but filled with so many fun things, I wanted to talk about them because I didn’t want to forget.
We started the morning with G sleeping in until his ‘normal’ time of about 645! The past week he’s been getting up around 6am so [...]
