Friday, February 29th, 2008My mom a.k.a. Mema came to town on Wed afternoon. She is here for Samuel’s sixth birthday, and it was a BIG surprise to the kids. She came bearing gifts and games and prizes and all kinds of fun for Samuel’s party. Excitement in the house is HUGE, as you can imagine. Here are a [...]
Mopping solutions?
Thursday, February 28th, 2008I need a little help, so I’m putting this out there for the blogosphere! I have a pretty large kitchen/dining area that is all linolium tile, and I also have three children. This means lots of sweeping and mopping (or rather it means there SHOULD be lots of sweeping and mopping, if only I actually [...]
WFMW – magic ice
Wednesday, February 27th, 2008Have I mentioned on this blog about how much I love Sonic diet coke? I usually get the Route 44 size, and I HEART it in a BIG way,especially because of their magic ice (which is not the technical term, but that’s what I call it). Unfortunately, I am trying to eliminate soda and tea [...]
Gratituesday – laughter
Tuesday, February 26th, 2008Today will be a quick post (well, we’ll see – I tend to get wordy even when I say I’ll be quick). (Has anyone noticed that about me? No? Oh, well it seems to me that my mind likes to go off in tangents and… wait… there I go… back to gratituesday). Today I’m thankful for humor, [...]

I was thinking in my head how I was going to word a post about turning cleaning into fun with my almost three year old. Then, I sat down for our quick bite of [...]
Have you heard…
Thursday, February 21st, 2008About ModestNeeds.org? I found this site by accident last week, and I’m impressed with what they are doing. Here is a quote from their Mission page: Modest Needs exists To prevent otherwise financially self-sufficient individuals and families from entering the cycle of poverty, when this might be avoided with a small amount of well-timed financial [...]
WFMW – tights on my baby girl
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008Ok, this is probably the silliest WFMW post ever, but I was dressing my daughter yesterday and thought, “I should share this – it might be of help to SOMEone.” I may have been sleep deprived when I had that thought, but I’m going to post it anyway, just in case. So, my baby girl [...]
Gratituesday – Getting away… and my own bed!
Tuesday, February 19th, 2008This last weekend, Allan and I were able to get away for about 24 hours. We like to celebrate Valentine’s Day, but not necessarily for the traditional “valentine’s” day reasons, but instead because it’s the anniversary of when we met and became engaged. (Yes, you read that right, we met and became engaged in the [...]
