Grr! Twizzler complained last night that his throat was hurting again. He knew the drill–he opened his mouth wide for me to have a look. Yuck. His throat is lumpy and red and swollen again. We are heading back to the doctor today. My guess is that it’s his 5th case of strep this season….

How well do my kids know me?
Last night, KitKat asked me to write down 4 words to describe her. Then today, I read over at MamaKat’s that one of her writer’s workshop prompts for the day was this:Ask a loved one to use 6 descriptive words to describe you and report your findings. How well do they know you? So I…
Mamma Mia! I’m having a Giveaway!
Call me crazy. Call me what you want. I love the movie Mamma Mia. Maybe it’s because I saw it for the first time with my mom. It was her third time seeing the flick in the theaters, and she warned me that I might want to get up and dance in the aisles. Ok,…
Sleepy shopper
This picture cracks me up, and I am so glad that I was crazy enough to take my huge camera into Target yesterday while I shopped (for Mamma Mia–which I’m giving away HERE). (Side note: I was a little embarrassed pulling my camera out at Target. I hid in the paper towel aisle and snapped…
Fun at the Parenting Rescource Center
AJ was playing so nicely this morning with his lincoln logs that it wasn’t until noon that we got out of the house to run errands and then on to one of our favorite places–the Parenting Resource Center. I will be sad when AJ goes to school (for multiple reasons!) and I no longer have…
Wordful Wednesday–Adventure!
OK–I had my wordless Wednesday picture. Now for my wordFUL picture. I was looking through older photos, and came across this one. It made me smile. Not only do I love my family to death (just wish everyone was there for the picture) but this is one of the funnest and craziest memories that I…
Hot Cocoa
Have I shared this picture yet? Probably not….I just love it. Notice the earrings and nails. Oh! So festive! For more Wordless Wednesday photos from other great bloggers, see HERE and HERE and HERE
Wanna peak?
(Cool! This photo made the top 10 for week one!) It took me a while to get around to editing the wedding photos that I took a few days before Christmas. Hello! 500+ pictures takes a LONG time to go through, and my computer was crawling with so many 10 megapixel RAW images. I had…
Update on those Christmas cards….
I forgot to mention that I did have a resolution to the Christmas card dilemma last week. I found plenty of discounted cards at Giant, printed off a very simple slip of paper to insert in the card, and enlisted the help of my kids. One person to put a photo and a piece of…
Do you have the New Year’s Spirit?
It’s the 2009 New Year’s Spirit Award!! My new friend, Debilyn, just sent me my second blog award. Debilyn is down-to-earth, fun, and REAL, and I feel like I have known her for ages. Her little award came on a good day….or should I say, it was a good thing to get on a bad…
