A couple birthdays ago, Dustin gave me a subscription to Parents magazine. Although I read their advice with one rolling eye, I do love me some funny kid stories. As soon as I get the magazine, I flip to the back for the article where moms send in their funny stories.
The other day [...]

House tour: The Dining Room

I have a Bumbo and it is the best thing in the world! My daughter LOVES it. Also, there IS a warning lable on the back of the seat and I think it is PATHETIC that it has to be spell out. Are parents that stupid when it says in red letters on the back [...]
Please pass the bloody nose
November 26, 2007 – 7:15 pm
Every family has traditions. Growing up, ours was for me to get a bloody nose from my sister. This is what you would call an “accidental” family tradition. I can’t exactly pin point why it happened. It just did. I think it probably had something to do with everyone trying to get [...]
A dollar saved her life

It’s National Prematurity Awareness Month.
The challenge to heighten awareness has brought back so many memories…
I tear up looking at the pictures of Madeline’s first days. I remember the shock of my natural home birth turned emergency cesarean. I remember the fear and isolation I felt as I watched Dustin bravely smile and then [...]
There’s a lurker on my Christmas tree!
November 15, 2007 – 10:23 pm
Abbilyeverafter had the fantastic idea of doing a secret ornament exchange.
I don’t like clutter, so the ornaments that make it through the after Christmas purge, have to be packed with sentiment and all around gooeyness. An ornament from another blogger would definitely withstand the purge! I’d love for my online life to make it [...]
House Tour: Guest Bath & Laundry Room
November 15, 2007 – 11:32 am
One of the things I love about my husband is his need for simplicity. If his hair needs a trim, he bypasses the barber and shaves his head. If it can’t fit in his pocket, he doesn’t take it. If it has more than 3 buttons to push, you don’t need it.
In [...]
House Tour: The Backyard

It’s 6:30 pm, the kids have just gone to bed…
Our crazy dog barks.
Me: What was that?
Dustin: I was throwing the ball at the freakin’ dog and missed. I swear, if she wakes up the kids…
Me: It’s a good thing I know you can’t throw worth a darn, otherwise, you’d appear to be violent.
Dustin: [...]
Because you were about to ask
November 10, 2007 – 9:25 pm
The death of my PDA has forced me into mental crunches. I’m desperately trying to remember all the plans, contact info, and gift ideas I’ve been logging the past 6 months since I last synced it with my computer.
Trying to remember gift ideas made me realize just how close Christmas is! I’m always [...]
House tour: The Master Bath
November 9, 2007 – 11:51 am
Instead of a post filled with meaningless pictures of our new home, I’m going to give you several posts and a tour based off of something that went on in that room. Clear as mud?
Today’s tour: The Master Bath
Maddie has always loved sleep. Even when she had colic, it didn’t effect her [...]
