Playing the Game

Laura has already figured out how to play the parents.  She was watching a movie with me and wanted an afternoon snack.  I never answered.  Robert happened to come in the house right then.  “Ask Daddy!”  Too smart for her own good I tell ya. The movie we are watching is Snow White and the […]

Another year almost gone…

I haven’t meant to be so quiet lately.  I have been in a bit of a funk, plus with the craziness of Christmas, I haven’t had much time to post like I want to.  Our Christmas went well.  Laura has loved every present.  I think her favorite is her Dora, Diego, and Baby Jaguar dolls.  […]

A blessing and a curse

I love spending time at Mom and Dad’s. I love that Laura and Warren will have a great relationship with them. I love that it gets me out of the area for a few days so I don’t go stir crazy. However, I don’t love the adjustment when we get back. It is nice when […]

It's that time of year again

Christmas really snuck up on me this year. It is December 22 today, and I still haven’t wrapped the kids’ presents. I finished shopping Sunday night. The Christmas cards just made it into the mail today. I spent most of last week down in DeForest at Mom and Dad’s. I left home on Tuesday and […]

Another quick brag…

We took the kids to see Santa tonight. I had Robert stay in line with Warren while I took Laura in to see him from a distance. I figured she might do better if she can see him from a distance before I ask her to sit on his lap. When it was our turn, […]

Bragging

I am going to take a minute to brag up my daughter! I got out her board puzzles this morning. I keep them put away for a couple of reasons. 1. I don’t loose piece this way 2. They stay fresh and fun to play with for her. Well, she did each puzzle on its […]

4 Months Old

I can’t believe that my baby boy is 4 months old already. Time has flown by in some regards, but not in others. Warren had his 4 month well baby check yesterday. He weighed 17 pounds 1 ounce. He is 25 1/4 inches long. I don’t remember head circumference, but it was in the 50%. […]

Been Quiet

I’ve been quieter on here than I’ve wanted. Life has been full of frustrations and business. Let’s see what has all transpired from my last post. The concert Friday night was awesome! It was so good to get away without the kids. I am hoping that we can do a date night once a month […]

Breaking Point

I have found my breaking point. My day started at 5:20 yesterday morning. I went strong all day. We went to bed at 9:45 last night. At 2:15 this morning Laura woke us up crying. I tried to calm her down, but it didn’t work, so Robert went in. I was awake the entire time. […]

Thankful Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was good this year.  Thanksgiving dinner was just Mom, Dad, Robert, Laura, Warren, and me.  We got to DeForest around 11:30 on Wednesday.  Warren decided to start his day at 5:15am, so we took advantage.  We finished packing and got on the road early.  Laura woke up, was changed and dressed, then put in […]
