I’m in the thick of it…

August 9, 2012

I know vacations are worthwhile. It’s great to get away from the house, it’s nice to have a break from the routine and it’s enjoyable to be forced to have no distractions during family time. The pre-work, though, is enough to do you in! There are a variety of piles all over our house. There are the clothing piles that […]

Is a relaxing beach vaca possible?

August 8, 2012

Much like I explained yesterday, a year can make a big difference! Friday we leave for our second year going up to Michigan between school and camp. My very generous aunt and uncle give us their summer house as a getaway. And last year, (you can read about it here) it wasn’t quite the getaway I had expected. First of […]

What a difference a year makes! (The summer edition)

August 7, 2012

I can’t help but reflect back to where I was a year ago. After the long, hard decision to quit my job and stay home, I had made it through July (my first month as a stay at home mom). And although I was getting into a groove, most of my contacts were not going to be around in the […]

Thinking about the growing pains was hard – remembering how challenging it had been to our family dynamic. Yet I had always wanted three children and knew that in order to make that family happen, I would […]

Can my kids live in a bubble?

August 2, 2012

Swimming pools petrify me. They scare me in a way that I don’t ever know how I will send my children to camps where they are able to swim where only paid professionals are watching them. I have always been a camp person, an advocate for children going to camp. But the thought of swim lessons or, dare I say, […]

Question King

August 1, 2012

Drew, like many other four year olds, has become even more full of questions. Why? Where? How? And although it gets annoying at times, he is also a little sponge and he’s trying to figure everything out. I can’t help but want to come up with the best answers to help educate him. Since being asked to be a ring […]
