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 […]
Tonight after dinner, Andy was playing on the Wii with Caden. He’s not the greatest at the games yet, but he’s getting there. He likes to try playing baseball, golf, and now, boxing.
Not too long ago, I was talking to my friend, Liz, about our kids playing Wii. She said her three-and-a-half-year-old was really […]
This evening after I picked up the boys from my parents’ house, we were driving past the hospital where I work. The cars ahead of me were stopping in the middle of the hill and I noticed 4 deer crossing the road (we live in a pretty suburban area, but the deer are everywhere!). I […]
This morning, we were able to start our day in one of my favorite ways-the boys climbing into bed (nicely waiting until after the clock says “7-zero-zero” to come in our room) and all of us snuggling. Then off to breakfast, and no other agenda for a few hours. We cleaned up a bit, built […]
Okay, I’ve been having a hard time motivating to blog. I’ve actually been spending more time reading blogs rather than writing. See, I’ve been introduced to Google Reader by my brother and sister-in-law and it’s made keeping up with all sorts of blogs a lot easier. It’s also made me want to write more. And […]
We’ve just gotten home (at 10:00 pm!) from a day full of feasting and fun. We started at Andy’s parents’ house for lunch and lounging. Then we headed to my parents’ house for more eating and visiting. It was an exhausting day, and I’m ready for bed!
But I’m keeping in mind all that I’m […]
