Sorry for the asterik, but I really don’t need a bunch of spam from all the perverts out there. Jack helped his youngest cousin, Joey, take a shower last night. Too cute!

Okay… here are the pics of our freshly painted living room! I know, I know… we need some window coverings (suggestions welcome). But, we’re thrilled with the results of our hard work. The color is wonderful – very warm. And, we’re so happy to have decided to go with white trim. It’s a lot of [...]

Well, not really. But I did replace all the electrical outlets and switches in our living room all by myself! It’s probably giving my parents the willies reading that, but I managed it all without electricuting myself or any children. The dog is still alive, too. Oh, and the house hasn’t burned down yet. Seriously, [...]

I love the Vail boots – these would definitely fit the bill, and make me the envy of all the school moms. Keen Giveaway *They didn’t use weapons [...]

As I shoved children, backpacks and lunchboxes into the van this morning, Jack and Maria couldn’t stop talking excitedly about the snow. Maria: I know! Let’s say a prayer to God that it snows forever!!! Jack: Yeah! Jack and Maria [...]

The Bunkbeds
November 19th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Parenting
As I mentioned in a previous post, my very generous parents and sisters joined forces this year and for Christmas purchased bunkbeds for my little boys (who are getting less little by the minute). The beds came early, which was perfect timing as Sam has been climbing out of his crib for several weeks now. [...]

The rules- 1. Go to your pictures file. 2. Go to the 4th file. 3. Go to the 4th picture. 4. Post it and tell the story. These are my Little Boys, Sam and Luke, on Christmas Eve last year. I have no idea what’s in that Amazon box, and it probably wasn’t for them, [...]
