I can hardly believe how fast summer flew by! October is just around the corner and here I am finally getting around to sharing some pictures of our trip to Oregon. Many people’s vacation consist of visiting exotic places, but living across the country from our family, we spend our funds and time visiting them….
Potty Training = INSANITY
I have a three year old. He is currently learning how to control his body and use the potty. As a mother, I am supposed to help him, be encouraging, and clean up any accidents. Well, forget living to see him married and have kids, I’ll be lucky if I live to see him potty…
Baby Year in Review
I swear the year goes by a lot faster with two children verses just one. Hard to believe a year has passed since he was born. He is developing quite the personality, complete with random bursts of screeching… perhaps he learned this from his brother? He hasn’t been interested in walking at all until today….
Family Surprise Visit
Little Tennessee is 11 months old… almost a year and Boston just turned 3! I can hardly believe it. Tennessee hasn’t shown any initiative to walk, I guess he figures he can crawl everywhere he needs to go. Although he does pull himself up on things, especially on the train table the boys received for…
9 Months Old
Little Tennessee is 9 months old! It is hard remembering life without him. He is such a funny little man and follows my husband around like a loyal puppy dog. He started saying “mama” whenever he is sad or wants something. His front curls (which I loved) were getting a bit out of control, so…
Mother Business… looking for tips
Oh hello. “What have you been up to?” Nothing out of the norm for me, just watching kids and occasionally getting better at it. In fact, I am now confident enough to embark on a shopping trip with my two little ones by myself. A small accomplishment for some, but I will take it,…
Trip to Historic Nauvoo
Our fun trip to Historic Nauvoo. What we did and what we enjoyed. Over Labor Day weekend we made the 8-hour drive to visit Nauvoo, Illinois. We caravaned with some good friends and enjoyed the full pioneer experience by all sharing a small one room cabin, complete with loft. We began our site-seeing by riding…
Half a Year Old!!!
Summer with these two was a little hectic. The boys and I spent several weeks in Oregon with family while my husband stayed home busy with work. I envisioned lots of personal free time on our trip as Boston could play in my parent’s fenced yard or with the many toys, but contrary to my…
8 Weeks Old!
Baby Tennessee is eight weeks today! Time definitely hasn’t flown by but it is starting to feel like he has always been with us… just starting to mind you. Look at that face! He doesn’t give smiles away that often so when you do catch a glance of one, they are priceless! Boston LOVES being…
