Today was the second gorgeous day in a row, and we’re due for two more. Too bad I have to work the next couple of days. But still, it’s feeling like spring! Here’s some extra proof that spring is on its way (5 more days!):
Fresh buds on my lilac bush!
The ground finally […]
This morning, Andy and Noah got out the dominoes. They built a line to knock over, then Noah headed upstairs to get dressed. This is how I found Andy and Caden a few minutes later.
We kept telling Caden to not get too close and to wait for Noah. He was quite patient. I […]
Today was a gorgeous, COLD, sunny day here. On the way home from picking up Noah from school, my car said it was 17 degrees. UGH! It’s March 12!!! But it was incredibly sunny and at this time of year, the sun is much warmer than January, so you can fool yourself into thinking it’s […]
Just after I posted that last post about my laptop not working, my laptop started working. Of course. I’m a pretty firm believer in Murphy’s Law, so it’s only appropriate that this is what happened. So instead of just laying on the sofa, doing sudoku puzzles, while watching Juno with Andy, I’m messing around on […]
So, my three-year-old appears to have a pretty lousy memory. I use the word “appears” because I think it has more to do with his priorities than anything else.
For instance, you could ask him what he had for lunch two hours ago, and he may not remember, probably if it was something he […]
I’m finally calming down. It’s amazing what DVR’d American Idol and Survivor can do for some mental health!
For Lent, I gave up raising my voice to the boys (I know, it’s really supposed to be a sacrifice of something you enjoy, and I definitely don’t enjoy raising my voice, but I do it a […]
A week or so ago, Andy got two tickets to the EAA AirVenture Museum in Oshkosh from a vendor he works with. We decided to make our way up to the “airplane museum” with the boys today. It was pretty cool. I’m happy we didn’t spend money on admission, as we spent most of our […]
I’ve had kind of a crappy weekend.
There have been some highlights: -Zumba class with Amy and her sisters (which, thankfully, included margaritas!) -50-degree weather in February in southeast Wisconsin and a trip to the playground with the boys -a family baby shower for Andy’s cousin’s new baby where we won one of the […]
Today, the boys and I went sledding with Noah’s friend from preschool, Nathan, his sister Teagan, and their mom, Angie (the same family we went with to the Domes). We picked up the big boys from school, had lunch at McDonald’s, then headed to the sledding hill. It’s the biggest hill the boys have ever […]
Yesterday, the boys and I headed over to the Mitchell Park Domes with Noah’s friend from school, Nathan, Nathan’s little sister, Teagan (Caden’s buddy), and their mom, Angie. Every year around this time, they set up model railroads in the “Show Dome” that run amid the flowers and plants. The theme this year was “Legoland” […]
