Christmas has been over for….well, long enough. I really should have shared these pictures by now, but as soon as we got home from our holiday trip to Florida, kids got sick, there were tasks to take care of and deadlines to meet. So here I am, after New Years, sharing our Christmas morning pictures….
Foods to Fight the Cold and Flu
My kids headed back to school yesterday….all except one. Reese was home sick (and will be again today) with a cough, stuffy nose, and fever. Unfortunately, from here on out (at least until Spring is in full force) I will no longer be able to make plans outside the house. Inevitably, during the Winter, if…
Best Face of 2010
It’s the first Monday of a new year, and the first I Heart Faces challenge of 2011. This week’s challenge is to find your best face photo of 2010. I have a hard time picking “bests” out, but this photo of Reese is one that has stood out as one of my favorites this year….

I’ve spent considerable time over the last 6 months complaining about our broken dishwasher. On a good day, I would spend a full hour washing dishes-for-seven by hand. On an average day, I spent closer to 2 hours washing dishes. And on a bad day, my kitchen looked like this: Stacks and stacks of rinsed…
Link Up Your Giveaways 1/2
It has taken me a while to get around to picking winners….(I wish I could figure out how to number my comments with my current theme. Grr!). I blame it on the Christmas season, my travels, and the kids. But better late than never…I finally have winners to announce in my two latest give aways!…
What I Miss About Vacation
I slept in this morning, as I like to do on New Years Day. Our New Years Eve celebrations included eating ice cream and watching movies in the comfort of our basement family room. Three of our five kids were scattered around town, and we simply enjoyed the quiet. This morning, though, I was still…
Fourteen! GMYBS-PSF (+ important info on My Chaos, My Bliss)
Last Friday, my baby turned 14. I can remember with vivid clarity my first pregnancy….the fears, the excitement, the anticipation, the questions. There were plenty of each. I don’t know if the fears and questions ever go away. As soon as the questions are answered and the fears put to rest, they are replaced by…
2010 in Review
I am in shock that 2010 has come to an end. I can’t say that I’m sad about it, though. 2011 has got to be better than 2010. I have high hopes and big wishes for the New Year. One of my favorite blogging exercises is going back through a year’s worth of posts and…
Top 10 Things I Learned on Vacation
I am home. I survived two 17 hour car trips with 5 kids and a husband. I successfully left my blog to it’s own devices and took a true break. A vacation! And I am back home, looking forward to a glorious night sleep in my own bed. Taking a break from blogging is the…
Are You the Next Mamavation Mom?
The New Year is right around the corner, and with the new year comes New Years Resolutions. I have never been a huge fan of once-a-year resolutions, and prefer instead to work on goals throughout the year. However, this year in particular, I’ve been noticing my reflection in the mirror….and I am determined more than…
