Or does he? Is Santa real at your house?
We’ve never told the boys Santa is real, but they’ve picked up on the whole idea from friends. I still haven’t decided whether to let them go with it, or to tell them how it really is. It’s almost popped out of my mouth several times [...]

Making sure the path from our bed to the kids beds to the front door is clear of clutter every night; safe.
Making sure I have liquid Benadryl in our cupboard and in my diaper bag at all times; safe
Using screen names and not posting [...]

I awoke shortly after 8 a.m. today. Blessed event! I could scarcely believe it. The boys never sleep past 6:30 but for some reason they had not disturbed me or Hubby this morning.

I’ve always been big into Christmas decorating. I took over the decorating of the house for my parents when I was 14. My dad supplied the ladder and in early December I could be found on top of the roof stringing the lights, taping lights in every window in the house and threading them through [...]

Count Dooku decided to go shirtless around the house after church today. I didn’t notice for a while until he came and stood by me at the piano. His skin was blotched with purple and the following conversation ensued:
Me: “Your skin is blotched with cold. Go get a shirt on, buddy.”

Here in my corner of the world, Autumn takes it’s time in settling. The color of the leaves changed noticeably only a week ago. And today, as our family drove to a friends house for some college football and food, I saw that most of them had dropped overnight. To me, the falling of the [...]

Last night, shortly before bed, Obi-Wan was enjoying a bowl of popcorn with his Hi-5 DVD when suddenly we heard:
Obi-Wan: “AAAAGGHHHH!”
Hubby: “What is it buddy?”
Obi-Wan: “My teefs! Paw-corn’s stuck!”
Hubby: “Show me where.”
Obi-Wan pointed to the offending popcorn kernel stuck between two of his “teef” and hyperventilated while daddy went to grab a tooth pick [...]
