Sorry about the light posting schedule. We're on vacation with 10 grandLittles right now. (my Mother-in-Law is a brave, brave woman!) I had hoped to be able to post a little bit more while we were away (seeing as how I got a little behind the week before we left...) but as luck would have it, where we are staying does not have wireless internet access... Soooooo.....bare with the absence,...
Addie and Hay wanted to share some of their current FAVORITE reads. I asked them to pick a few to show ya. Hope you're Littles love em as much as ours! Just the name, I Don't Want a Posh Dog is hilarious! This is a quick, smart, rhyming book about a little girl looking for a dog... My favorite line, "I don't want a snooty dog. A fancy, attitudey dog."...
So I'm going to make the assumption that you are like me. That even though you have a few kids and are a grown adult, that your parents can still one up you. They know more, they've been around the block more, they are your parents. And as much as we think we have a thing or two we can teach or introduce our parents to, we will most likely...
Just curious how many of you have found multiple uses for your kids things even when they are not around?? We found many multi-tasking items with our little garden project As Hay just pointed out to me (she's sitting on my lap "helping me" write this post). Hayden: "Das Hay-Hay's park Mama!" Yes, it is and it made a mighty fine staging area last weekend. Hayden: "Das Piper's chair!" Yes,...
So this is where we left off in my last garden post with our little project. Kind of left us wondering what we had gotten into when we went to bed that Saturday. But then on Sunday we headed back out to the crime scene. Grabbed a can of marking paint and traced out the new bodies....errr, raised veggie beds, that might fit. (Forgive me, I've watched to many late...
Thank you to everyone that commented and offered their own Aquaphor tips! I love hearing what works for other, and also know we've helped a few others out!! Congratulations Becky! You were the winner...and I'm so glad it is already helping you out! Comment #16 Becky: "I just started using this yesterday after I read your other posts about it! My son has very dry skin that forms little bumps...
So it has begun. I mentioned back in January that we might be tackling a little gardening project. "WE" to this point mostly means me photographing and Hubs and Grandpa doing A LOT of work ~ while Grandma helps me wrangle in the Littles. FULL team, FULL family effort! This is where we started a few a few weekends ago... Then the Littles helped Hubs bring in a sod cutter...
I'm big on muti-tasking, and when people or products can do the same, it's a big gold star in my book. (If I could find my book....or my roll of gold star stickers....but you get the drift!) Aquaphor is one of the wonderful, mutli-tasking products for me. You're probably all saying I'm preaching to the choir right now, but SERIOUSLY, Aquaphor has saved me more than a few times. First...
This past Monday, the Littles and I were invited to join South Coast Plaza for some Spring Time Activities. We made a girl morning out of it as we did at Christmas, with some of the Littles' cousins. Loads of Littles. It's always an adventure. It's always entertaining. It's always cause for a glass of wine when we get home! But the memories are worth it! All that being said,...
I'm completely delayed in posting about the girls' birthdays. Their Circus Party felt like we had a wedding at our house (not in being elaborate, but more in the man hours it took everyone to put it all together!) I'm hoping to get the party posted soon. Just waiting on a few more photos and I promise to share!! So yes, the girls all shared the big party, and it...
