It was our first year of marriage. I had been a full-time college student for the past 3 years and had not had a car at school. So the wedding gift from my parents – a used Ford Tempo – was a huge treat. My biggest challenge was not getting back into the swing…
The Stages of Bath Time
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sterling. All opinions are 100% mine. As a mother of five kids, I can’t begin to imagine how many hours have been spent kneeling by the side of the bathtub washing kids. Especially during the summer, when kids get to the end of…
Slipping on Ice – Recreating the Viral Video
I kid you not. After I had fallen flat on my butt not once but twice before I made it to the cross walk at the back of the elementary school, the crossing guard mentioned that I reminded her of the “slipping on ice” viral video she had seen the night before. She described…

This post is sponsored by Kellogg’s but all opinions and funny kid stories are my own. Have you ever had one of those conversations with your kids?

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cottonelle. All opinions are my own. The story, however, is my husband’s and I did get permission – hesitant permission – to share his story for the benefit and humor of this blog post. Prepare to laugh, say “Eww!” and have a new…
Hidden Talents and a Giant Surprise
I’d like to say that I’m a woman of many (hidden) talents. Not quite. I’ve always considered myself good at many things and great at only a few. I’m just an ordinary, relatively unexciting girl with few surprises up my sleeve. Maybe that’s why I was attracted to my husband. CandyMan is an extreme –…

I posted a photo on Tuesday of my two youngest kids wearing giant pajama pants and had several people request that I post the dancing video. So without further ado….here are the giant pajama dancing pants: PS – Yes, these are my pajama pants, and yes they are very, very large and stretchy. And, yes,…
Back to School Quote
I found this Back-to-school quote today and thought it was too funny not to share. Disclaimer….I love my kids. I really do. I love spending time with them. But I also look forward to the start of school, a regular schedule, and yes….a little separation.
Celebrate Everyday Moments With Quotagraph (+ $100 Giveaway!)
When my kids were younger, I kept a notebook where I would record weights, illnesses, play dates, and all of the funny things they said each day. Sometimes I miss those days, when my kids were silly and parenting was so much simpler. I remember my oldest daughter, clearly, coming in to our bedroom at…
Child Safety Advice….From a Child
I am getting ready to take all 5 of my kids to New York City for a whirlwind day of sightseeing (yes, I decided that I am well enough to survive a day trip to NYC!). As my husband was prepping the kids for our trip (paying particular attention to the younger kids and safety…
