I am SUCH a loser. I completely forgot that Jack had a birthday party to attend at 1 p.m. today.  I just came home from Home Depot and was talking to Dan in the kitchen when I noticed the wrapped gift I had put on top of the fridge for today’s party.  Shoot!!! The party [...]

After a crazy dinner this evening I kind of ditched Dan and the kids for a trip to Target by myself.   It’s been a long week, getting everyone back into the swing of things.  I needed a break to rejuvinate.  Plus, I needed to pick up a gift for a birthday party Jack’s going to [...]

Hear that?  Shhhhhh.  Listen. It’s quiet!  The only sound I hear right now is the slight humming of my fridge, my fingers on the keyboard and a plane flying overhead.  Weird.  These are not sounds normally heard at my house.  No way can you hear things like that.  Not over all the whooping and hollering [...]

Jack can claim the first legitimate loose tooth.  We discovered it several days ago.  Why he didn’t mention it to us, we’ll never know.  (After all, he’s been claiming to have one – always a different one – for a few months now.)  Dan discovered it during a tooth-brushing session and it’s been the talk [...]
