I have updated my photo blog twice recently. Check HERE to see some new pictures of my friend, Safire, and her cute kids! (the above picture is just included for fun–It cracks me up!)

Rite Aid is my hero
Another Monday morning and one more trip to the doctor. Yep, Taco finished his antibiotic on Friday, and by Sunday his strep was back. I am feeling so worn down. I needed something good to happen to pep me up today. I headed straight to my normal pharmacy to get his Rx. They didn’t have…
20 Essential Ideas to Help Create a Better Family–Part 1 of 4
When I came back from Education Week in August, many of my friends asked me to share some things that I’d learned in all of the classes that I attended. Well, school started the week that I got back, life took over, and I never shared any of the great insights that I gathered. Last…
Day 8 — Pet Peeves
A few months ago, my friend, Lisa, invited me to participate in her family and friend’s photo group. Every month we have 3 challenges. This month, our photo challenges are 1) hands and feet, 2) rocks, and 3) pet peeves. I was thinking of my own pet peeves (nose picking, tapping, burping….Haha!) but then this…
Day 7 — Hard at play
Yesterday we went with our friends, Safire and kids, to the Resource Center. We moms held babies while the 3 year olds played hard. Apple was thrilled with the pink playdough (it was the most popular center of the day) and he made 18 dye-drop Fall leaves out of coffee filters and food coloring. I…
Day 6 — Meet the Bakers?
Let me introduce you to my family. We might look familiar, but some things have changed. On the left is my oldest daughter, Kiwi (NOW KitKat). In my husband’s lap is my youngest son, Apple. Smack dab in the middle is my kindergartener, Reese. Next comes my first born son, Taco, and my beautiful tom-boy,…
Emergencies, recalled
As I was driving to the doctor’s office this morning, I was thinking about the WEEK that we’ve had at our house. It started last Monday with Reese’s 2nd degree burn, then progressed to Twizzler’s strep on Wednesday, Reese’s strep and ear infection on Thursday, my Cough (with a capital C) over the weekend, and…
Day 4 — I voted!
I voted! Have you? Did you have a long line like this? It was pretty funny–there were no lines at all at the polls, but when we got to Krispy Kreme doughnuts to get our free voting treat, there was a line out the door! Apple was thrilled to get doughnuts two days in a…
Day 3 — The ER
Oh Boy! I woke up this morning to Peanut Butter yelling, “Chef, get down here!” I ran down to the kitchen, groggy, to find Apple sitting on the counter with Kiwi’s now-empty bottle of Amoxicillan (she had at least 6 days-worth left). He REALLY likes the stuff. So much so that he got into the…
Day 2 — Was today really Sunday?
As I was sitting at dinner tonight, something felt very odd. It didn’t feel like the end of a Sunday. As much as I have loved the last year working with my 45 kids in Primary, Sundays were exhausting. Sunday started on Saturday night with the preparation and the phone calls from teachers who were…
