Our Half Snow Day {UPDATED}

Snow Day 015

UPDATE: I can’t believe I wrote this post and didn’t include the funniest part of the snow experience! Well, maybe it wasn’t that funny at the time, but now I can laugh about it. With all the kids out in the snow shortly after 7:00 AM, I decided to go snap some pictures while the [...]

Sushi – Never Again!

2012-01-21_19-44-26_82

Do you eat sushi? When it comes to exotic foods, I am a big sissy! I am just now getting to where I can eat normal vegetables like asparagus and spinach without thinking I am going to vomit (sweet potatoes are still on my yucky list), so sushi is serious business for me. I guess [...]

to do list

It’s been one of those weeks where every time I turn around I’m getting pulled in a new direction. Luke has been super needy this week, and the ‘big’ kids have been extra needy during school time.

I sat down like an hour ago to get some work done, but after uploading a new video to our YouTube channel, I got distracted watching old videos of the kiddos, and shedding a few sentimental tears. It’s so amazing to watch the progression of your children as they grow up. Just for fun, here’s [...]

Sometimes I forget what it was like to be a kid. I forget that I used to think my mom only gave me chores to torture me. Now I know, she gave me chores to teach me responsibility, and because me and my siblings were messy and she needed the help. I often wished for [...]

Like any new mom, my little sister is dealing with a lot of adjustments now that she’s home with the new baby. One of her biggest concerns was nursing. The rough start she and the little man had last week (very complicated delivery) and the time he ended up spending in the NICU just added [...]
