Super Easy, Cheap, CUTE Easter Garland

  Talk about bang-for-your-buck!  This is super simple, super cute, and it’s Cheep Cheep Cheep! Sorry, couldn’t help myself.  Be careful with your pets whilst you are making it, though, or you might end up with this: What?  We have a dog?  Who thinks she’s a cat? No, of course we don’t, Silly!   We have four kids under six years of age.  Like...

Unfair

Unfair

Do you ever find yourself taking pictures of one kid more than the others?  Whoops. It’s just that the others haven’t been very photogenic lately. And then when they are, this happens: Not fair. So, on to the cute one. Yes, the ordering of sherbet the same color as his shirt was intentional.  It was a good idea. Man, I love those...

Two, too, wonderful

Two, too, wonderful

Guess who’s two! We love our little man.  Two is going to be a great age for this one. It’s amazing to watch another “language boom” stage.  He’s been piecing little sentences together lately, and getting more and more adventurous with words.  “I yike toast” was the first of many surprising little phrases. I digress.  Today we...

Needs.

Needs.

My sister needs a blog. Why? Because I said so. Just kidding. The real reason is that so when I’m up at midnight with a screaming baby, I can have access to her perky, happy, upbeat, cheery sunshine-ness in a blog format. Facebook is just not cutting it. Especially because she hasn’t done much on facebook in forever…...

LOVE

Hey, Cinderella - I'm going to write about love on my blog today. What do you love? Valentine's Day. I also like coloring. And my ring pop. Doodle, what do you love? My candy necklace, and my wing pop. Valentine's Candy is so fun, isn't it! But I was thinking of *any* day, not just today. What...

Freedom’s Five

Freedom’s Five

I love the “milestone” posts that my with-it friends post.  You know, “SoAndSo is SuchandSuch age, does this and that, etc.”  With four kids under six, however, they’re each lucky that anything gets recorded.  That said, here’s Freedom at Five months.  Or so.  It actually happens next, uh… Mon, no, Wedn, no Thursday – no,...

The Importance of… Date Night

The Importance of… Date Night

Hm.  I wonder if forgetting to make this picture smaller is going to make it all squished and funny looking when it gets published. Sorry, thinking out loud – or rather, into the keyboard – again. Hi. Welcome back. Guess what we did tonight? Can’t tell from the picture, can you? Well, forgive me for putting you in suspense.  I...
