Messy kitchen

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…

Are You the Next Mamavation Mom?

Monday, December 27, 2010 by Lolli 1 Comment

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…

Mourning my Microwave

Monday, December 13, 2010 by Lolli 19 Comments

GE microwave

When CandyMan and I got married in April 1995, one of our first purchases on that big wedding-money-shopping-spree was a microwave. I purposefully bought the largest microwave I could find, with all the bells and whistles, similar to this GE Profile, because I knew that we’d be using it a lot. And I wanted something…

Halloween Parade 2010

Tuesday, November 2, 2010 by Lolli 6 Comments

school Halloween parade

The school-wide Halloween parade has got to be my favorite part of Halloween (the parade is only slightly ahead of the post-trick-or-treating candy tasting). This year, AJ decided at the last minute that he no longer wanted to be the werewolf and would rather dress in his size 2T-3T knight costume instead. Luckily, I was…

Invisalign Teen “Make Me Smile” Challenge

Monday, November 1, 2010 by Lolli 7 Comments

When my babies got their first tiny baby teeth, they were nothing short of perfect. Little, white (sharp!), perfect little teeth. And then they got another and another and it became clear that the teeth might not be lining up quite right.. There were spaces where there should be none and over-laps where there should…

Mommy Make-Over

Wednesday, October 20, 2010 by Lolli 21 Comments

The make-up artist

Alternately titled: Why Little Girls Should Not Be Allowed to do Mommy’s Make-up Reese, age seven and a half, is currently fascinated by my make up. And since I love to be pampered, I have agreed – twice in the last week! – to let her give me a make-over. The first time she did…

Letter to Me

Monday, October 11, 2010 by Lolli 10 Comments

16th birthday

Raise your hand if, as a youth, you ever wrote a letter to yourself, to be opened many years in the future. I know I did. I stumbled upon a blog post entitled Listen to Your Own Advice and loved the idea of the older me writing a letter to a younger me. Just like…

Smile Like You Mean It

Saturday, October 9, 2010 by Lolli 31 Comments

KitKat has always had a beautiful smile. She is confident and kind, and smiles openly and frequently. But she has spent many years being self conscious of her smile. When her teeth came in, it became very clear that she was going to take after her daddy’s side of the family. She was cursed with…

Crest Pro-Health Wrap Up

Crest Pro Health Complete Rinse

About a month ago, I received a bottle of Crest Pro Health Complete Rinse along with a challenge to use it twice a day for 4 weeks. I wrote about my fears of going to the dentist and jumped into the challenge with both feet. I have been a faithful mouthwash user for several years,…

The $5000 Avocado

Friday, October 1, 2010 by Lolli 20 Comments

You might recall a post here last month about the Amazing Avocado, along with a favorite family recipe. At the time, I was submitting the recipe to an avocado recipe contest (with a grand prize of $5000). Now, a month later, I am happy to announce (if you haven’t heard all of my tweeting and…
