Pictures!!

I know that I am crazy lucky to have three babies that take naps all at the same time! This time I know not to forsake my chance to catch up on sleep by doing laundry, dishes, blogging or tidying up. As soon as the last precious head hits the sheets, I’m running for cover…my [...]

It’s a girl! But you already knew that

Lindy Joy Boston weighing in at a burning 7lbs 15oz came Sunday night at 10:57pm.  The birth was AMAZING and everything I had prayed for (minus the dramatic ending but more on that later). Unlike Christian’s birth, my contractions came nice and regular. They didn’t have to use any drugs and it was pretty much [...]

My water broke!! (Yes, I’m blogging while in labor. So?)

1:30 am…. Pregnant Mary FINALLY getting some much needed Tylenol PM sleep. Ah, sweet relief.
1:40 am… Woken up to frisky hubbie kissing my back. I got mad because now that I was awake I realized I had to pee. That in itself is a huge ordeal.  Wiggle to the edge of the bed, rock back [...]

36 weeks down and 4(?) to go!

Have I mentioned how seriously uncomfortable this pregnancy has been?  I finally figured out what they meant when I was advised by strangers, doctors, and parents to “give your body a chance to recover”.  Not that we’ve had a choice in the frequency of pregnancies and even if we did, I don’t know that I’d [...]

My website has moved

Hubbie moved my blog to it’s new home last night! (Thanks Manchops! Muah).  The new address is perfektlymary.com .  You should be redirected to it automatically but if you’re linked to me or have me in a feed reader you’ll need to update your link.
Hope you’re having a great three day weekend!

Rooster on the menu

Dustin - ” I saw the title of your post. Aw, do you really think I’m a redneck?”
Me - “No, I think you’re a manly man. The chicken is a redneck…get it? Ha ha ha.”
I feel so validated by all of you that left comments about the chicken “event”. I thought I was some [...]

Officially “Red-neck”. Pun intended.

Dustin came home without the gleam. He looked surprisingly normal for a man that had 8 hours to think of the best way to massacre his first rooster. I don’t know what I was expecting. Maybe something like this:

Nope. Just same old, after work Dustin. I was practically buzzing with anticipation of the [...]

Chicken Dinner

At 5:30 this morning I was startled awake by a rooster crowing. Our rooster crowing!
Our hunches were right. One of our chickens has turned out to be a rooster after all. Thank goodness it’s the ugly one. I’ve tried so hard to not get attached to the chickens, but in the same way I [...]

Non Vacation

My dad called yesterday. Between Maddie’s screaming for “clicky shoes” and rescuing Christian from dangling off of the stove, I heard him say “So, do you feel refreshed?”.
Um, no.  I realized last week that mom’s don’t get vacations. At least not while their kids are this little. I don’t mean that as a complaint but [...]

Why yes, those are my boobies

I feel so chatty and no one is online right now :(  I’d call someone but the kids FREAK the heck out as soon as I get on the phone. So here’s everything in my head.
The End.
Just kidding ;)  My geek hubbie finally transfered all of our family pics over onto my computer from some [...]
