Memories

I have just finished watching Sex and the City.  The entire series.  At one point towards the end, one character Samantha gets breast cancer.  It is caught early on and everyone in the show believes that Samantha will be fine.  At one point, Samantha and Carrie (one of her best friends) are sitting together talking.  […]

Relationships

Have you ever felt like a relationship you are in is in a rut?  That things just aren’t as exciting as they used to be?  When relationships first start out, it seems that there is so much excitement and wonder.  You are getting to know the person, they are getting to know you, and you […]

Closure

I was able to get some closure today.  It was Bennet’s funeral this morning.  Ever since we arrived last night, the Rust family has accepted us in.  While we are family, we are the great nephew with the wife who married into the family.  Not all families would be so welcoming to the extended family […]

Quick Post

I am tired and had a long day, but I wanted to make a post yet tonight.  We are currently in Estherville for Robert’s great uncle’s funeral.  We both left work early, picked up the kids, ate a quick lunch at home, packed even quicker, then hit the road at 1:30 this afternoon.  We made […]

Movies

Have you ever watched a movie only to find yourself still thinking about it days, even weeks later?  I saw that Juno was on tv, so I set our DVR to record it.  Granted, it was slightly edited, but it was still better than renting a movie.  I honestly didn’t know what to expect when […]

All Clear?

I did not receive a phone call from the doctor this afternoon. I am semi-relieved. I will feel better once I have the results in my hand. Today was a good day for us. Warren took a good morning nap. In fact, I ended up waking him up. We had to get going to River […]

Scared

The kids are in bed, so I have more time to elaborate on my previous post.  As I mentioned, I’ve been noticing Laura getting unexplained bruises.  She is a very cautious and safe child.  She won’t even go down the slide on the swing set unless she is holding your hands.  I have no clue […]

Doctor Visit

We are back from the doctor’s office. Warren weighs 23lbs 12oz. He is 29″ long. He is 50-60% for everything. He did get two shots today. He recovered pretty quickly. Once we got home, he was CRABBY. I gave him some ibuprofen about 20 minutes ago, and he is feeling better already. I had Laura […]

Back to Reality

We are back from our vacation in the Dells.  It was good to get away.  The timeshare we were at wasn’t one of the best ever, but it wasn’t bad either.  I really liked having a place to retreat to and where we could  cook our own meals and not eat out so much.  We […]

Needing More?

As I sit here on the floor, I am wondering if I need more to my life.  Laura is working on potty training this week.  She is doing really well with it.  Yesterday she only had one big accident.  So far this morning she has yet to actually pee on the potty.  This is good […]
