The system is failing, and this is why.
My bright, smart, sweet little boy turns 4 in a few months. ::cue Mommy fainting:: This means he will be old enough to start pre-kindergarten next year. As any prepared parent would do, I called my local Independent School District to see what steps I needed to take in order to get Kade enrolled in [...]
Oh right, I have a blog.
Last time I blogged I was pregnant…and next week Lily Alice will be 4 months old, I guess that can sum up how busy I’ve/we’ve been. Let’s start with updated and way adorable pictures of my children: Super cute huh? Kade is officially a little boy and big brother, and Lily has done the job [...]
Life at 25 weeks pregnant.
Oh geez. Yeah, I haven’t posted in a while. And yeah, my picture series fell through didn’t really happen as planned. Let’s all move on. It turns out the impression I had of this time in my life, the whole “I’m wonder-mom and can grow a furiously kicking ninja baby, and care for a toddler, and keep [...]
Today is a good day.
Today is a good day. Today I feel good, I am eating without fear of throwing it up, I am being productive, and tomorrow is the last day of work until Monday and Christmas is this week. Today is a good day. Except for the fact that I got hugs and kisses from my sweet [...]
Five weeks.
I love babycenter.com, such a wealth of knowledge about the perfect storm that’s happening in my body right now. Once a week I like to read what is happening with the bambino that week, today did not disappoint. This week the bambino’s heart started beating! How amazing. Also, the wee one is getting a little [...]

You’ve got: the coolest big brother ever, 2 sets of grandparents already in love with you, 3 great-grandmas that are so excited, countless uncles, aunts and cousins that are already anxiously awaiting your arrival. But most of all, you’ve got a [...]
The end of summer.
“In the summer, the song sings itself.” Summer has come to a close for the kids, and it’s rapidly approaching for me too. There are leaves in my yard that needs raking, football season is less than 2 weeks away, and the heat, well, the heat is still at an all time miserable level, with [...]
Ok now, where were we?
Woah. To say we’ve been busy lately is the understatement of the century. I miss writing. I miss getting to share the love and happiness in our lives with anyone willing to read about it. (Thank you for reading, by the way.) First off, we had a spontaneous trip to Missouri on July 1. It [...]
Grade A slackass.
Seriously, life has been out of control lately, and I have so many goodies to write about on here for your viewing pleasure. Hopefully I’ll get some writing done this weekend, I miss my blog, and I miss my readers. So, in place of a post for a day (or 2…) here’s a picture of [...]
Testosterone Tuesday: How Stupid Can She Be…
Our new puppy is stupid. We both realize this. When you adopt a puppy that is 10 months old you think that you can put your print on the puppies attitude and personality. False. Ella is uncontrollable. She is by far winning the game for ‘stupidest dog ever’, but we have some competition with Doug’s [...]
