Birthday Recap

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, […]

Dentist Freak Out

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 […]

Title Missing

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 […]

The Final Countdown!

Well, I am down to counting minutes before Robert gets home.  Current guess is that he’ll be home in the next 40 minutes or so.  Well, he just called and is about 25 minutes away at this point.  :D  I am so excited to see him! Tonight went pretty well.  I am trying to get […]

Where Does the Time Go?

Today is my 4th Mother’s Day.  I count my first as when I was pregnant with Laura.  If she would have come then, she would have had a great chance of survival.  It never ceases to amaze me how fast time seems to go where the kids are involved.  I have a hard time believing […]

Why hello there!

I feel like is in fast forward again. Last week Tuesday and Wednesday were used to clean the house. Wednesday night we had our Bon Jovi concert. It was AWESOME! I would love to go again. I worked Thursday and Friday. Those were tough days due to lack of sleep (I think about 4 hours […]

Pondering

One of the big things emphasized while I was going to school for my education degree was reflection.  I have found myself doing that a lot with my parenting.  I keep coming up with things that I would like to try differently with Laura, or do differently with Warren, or things that I feel I […]

Updates and Milestone

First the milestone.  Warren has his first tooth!  It finally broke through on Tuesday, March 2.  I think there is a second one close behind the way he is still chomping on his Nuk and drooling. I feel like I’ve crested the top of a roller coaster and am now screaming at top speed down […]

Warren has rolled over.  He rolled from back to tummy on Friday while we were at my parent’s house.  I was actually gone getting my haircut, so I didn’t see it.  I’m ok with it.  I see so many of his firsts that I’m ok not seeing this one. On the sickness front, Laura is […]

A new year, a new approach?

This morning I tried out something new with Laura.  We worked on some letter sounds (s, a, and t).  My friend Mandy gave me a great book to use that has actions for each letter sound.  So we did those, and then I wrote out the word sat and showed her how to sound it […]
