i may or may not…
...be pregnant. Ok, NOT.NOT.NOT.NOT.NOT!!  That was just a bad joke.  But I had to do it. Now even though my sister says I don't need to do this, when I've been MIA for more than a few days, I DO think an explanation is in order. You see, there are these 3 kids, and life, and well.... Yeah, I don't think that's really an excuse either. So let's try this...

road trips ~ a favorite thing

road trips ~ a favorite thing
So I took a road trip this past Saturday to see family and friends in the Bay Area.  The drive took me about 7 hours, which is what I had guessed it would with the kids.  I pretty much thought I had lost my mind to even think doing a drive like that with a 2 year old, 1 year old and 4 month old was a good idea.  My...

a helpful reminder

a helpful reminder
Having little helpful reminders are good.  Goodness knows with each pregnancy I clearly lost more brain cells than I ever started with, so now I pretty much know nothing, and remember nothing. Case in point, packing for my trip with the girls I made a quick dash out to the car to get something. My running shoes were also outside by the stroller.  I put them on the front doormat...

We're kind of slave drivers around here. You pull your weight, all 30 lbs of it in the Littles' case, otherwise no dinner for you!  You work for room and board..... We don't even give much time to fasten your onsies... Nice girls.  Good work on that rim Hayden! Addie, keep your eye on the goal....clean car for Mama. Be sure to ring that rag out, no dirty streaks on...

Sweet Piper doesn't get much air time on MFE.  She's typically in my Ergo Carrier, or down for a nap when the excitement is happening.  But I figured it might be nice to give her a little post so she doesn't come to me one day asking for therapy, wondering if she really is a part of our family.  Sorry baby, it's not because you're third, promise!!  I have plenty...
