1. Sweet Pea turned one month old on October 1st! Where does the time go? Miss S. is doing a great job as a new mama and we are all adjusting to our new family dynamics. I have been accused of spoiling Sweet Pea {and I’m okay with that!} 2. I am addicted to baby…

Fun and Marriage
Do those two words even go together? They should! But sometimes with the busyness of life, the chaos of raising children and the monotony of the daily grind we can lose sight of the fact that we should be enjoying life with our spouse. That is a dangerous place to be as fun is a…
Random Mama Updates (Advice Welcome)
Boy, I have a lot of random things in my multi-tasking brain to share with you. First off a parenting dilemma (those of you with terrible two year olds- hug them and thank God that they are not terrible twelve year olds). As my regular readers know, Jared recently got a cell phone. This was…
BlogBaby, the myth-the baby-the legend

I encourage you to join the fun of Not Me Monday over at MckMama’s blog, who by the way was named #1 Mom blogger of 2008 by the fab gals at MomDot. And now to my not me’s: ~I did not cry like a baby while at the movie, Marley and Me. Some movies should…
Short end of the stick
Apparently Tuesdays are turning into basketball inspired posts. (Well, this is sorta related, just stay with me here) My kids are SHORT. I don’t understand the problem. My hubby is 6’2″ and I’m average 5’5″. Jared is 4’9″, which doesn’t sound bad for a 12 1/2 year old until you put him in a middle…
Not Me Monday
Another Monday, another session of free therapy with MckMama’s Not Me meme. Join in the fun by visiting her blog. ~I did not dream of ways to make Jared’s basketball coach pay for demanding that kids wear black basketball shoes for the season. It didn’t take four stores on a frigid cold day to find…
