Parenting is like a juggling act. You keep all the balls up in the air, and if some drop you hope nobody notices.
Laura’s birthday party went well. We had a decent turnout for it. She ended up with two princess dresses, swim suit, couple of water toys, and books. I still need to write the thank you notes. I’m hoping to get that done in the next day or two. As a gift from Mom and Dad, […]
Me: “Laura, are you poopy?” Laura: “No. You check?” *she walks backwards to me* *Look, and yes, she has pooped* Laura: “Oh goodness. Oh goodness.” While waiting at the doctor yesterday: Me: “Were you a good girl today?” Laura: “Yeah.” Me: “Were you naughty?” (She hadn’t been naughty that day. I was just asking to […]
This morning was Laura’s dentist appointment. I had hoped she’d go back on her own, but that wasn’t going to happen. It took a bit to even get her to sit in the chair. As soon as the chair moved up, she started freaking out. It only went down hill. We didn’t get her teeth […]
I have found myself thinking each Monday that it is a new week and things will go differently. By Friday, I am a mess yet again. It is just the cycle I am in I guess. This past weekend went way too quickly. Saturday I ran away to Mandy’s for our monthly scrapbooking day. We […]

Once breakfast was over, she wanted the princess dress on right away. Surprisingly, she asked to take off the princess […]
I couldn’t think of a better title. I had a great post started in my head, and then I had to go looking for a desktop client to post with. I found a few that people recommended, but couldn’t really find any that I liked that were free. I guess I could look into a […]
I have decided that I am not a fan of weekend marriages. At least not being in one. May 10-13 Robert was in Green Bay for training. He came home Thursday night. We had the weekend together, then I left for DeForest for a week. I left Monday morning and came back Friday afternoon. It […]
Life seems to be moving in fast forward right now. In the time span of just over a week, Warren learned to sleep through the night (sorta, but more on that later), eat solids, crawl, popped through tooth #5, stand totally on his own for a few seconds at a time, and drinks 6-8 oz […]
My heart just melted. Laura was playing. I was reading something on my computer. She comes up to me, “Mommy, I love you. I bring you a present.” Then she proceeds to give me a hug. Yep, heart is melted.
