I said I wasn’t going to blog today (it’s a busy day with a trip to visit some old friends after church) but I found myself with some extra time this morning, so I figured I’d link up to this week’s Chic Click Carnival. Some introductions: I am Lolli, mother of 5 kids, ages 13…
Kids Are Parrots (Watch Out!)
Role Model or Potty Mouth? I am not and have never been one to swear. Swearing makes me uncomfortable (including made up “safe” swearing….it sounds just as bad to me). In this video, I related much more to the hesitant husband. And, yes, like the wife in this video, CandyMan is a little more on…
Give Me Your Best Shot (A Little Late)
Last night, I had in my mind that today was going to be Thursday, so I apologize for those of you waiting for GMYBS to be up. I’m blaming it all on the Summer. Thanks for reminding me, Allison! This week, I caught a few pictures of my kids at the pool. If you haven’t…
Summer is No Vacation
I don’t care what everyone else says, Summer time is no vacation. Despite the common reference to Summer being a “break,” Summer time typically turns out to be a fun but tiring time of the year for us. Instead of sleeping in and relaxing on the porch, we tend to get up early every morning…
Make a List: Budget Bootcamp Week #2
This week’s Budget Bootcamp challenge was: Make a list and stick to it. If you’re at the store and want something not on the list it cannot go in the cart. This weeks’s question: How easy/difficult it is to avoid those nasty impulse buys? Do you make a list? Do you see a significant difference…
His Love Affair with Ketchup
This won’t be the first time I have blogged about Twizzler’s love affair with ketchup. This little love affair has been going on as long as I can remember….or at least as long as Twizzler had a voice to express his desire to not only eat ketchup on everything, but eat LOTS of ketchup on…
Cub Scout Day Camp
I would have a lot to say about the 6 hours I spent at cub scout day camp today (and the 2 hours driving there and back), but frankly 8 hours with seven 8-9 year old boys, in the pre-thunder storm heat and humidity, wore me completely out. Even CandyMan noticed my extreme fatigue when…
Fracture {Giveaway}
Photos are a huge part of my life. I rarely go anywhere without a camera. Actually, a friend at dinner tonight laughed when I took a picture of AJ sitting at a bar sucking on a lollipop….with the camera on my phone. It might not be a picture worthy of displaying, but I am too…
I Heart the USA
On Friday, I saw my City – my Country – through new eyes. Not only did I see a few new-to-me sights as I played tourist in my hometown, but I had the privilege of sitting in front of a family who was seeing the sites of Washington DC for the very first time. I…
Moms, It’s Worth It
I watched this video for the first time sitting in a room with more than a dozen mothers. Some had babies, others toddlers. A few of us had older kids and teens, and there were a few with children who had grown. Every one of us could relate with the mom at the beginning of…
