Goodness
We’re a busy bunch around here lately. The kids are learning to pick up some of my slack. Lily and Max are little parents. They corral each other and their little brothers. They pour Froot Loops and run Netflix in the early mornings. They know that it takes all of us working together to make […]
Welcome, Awesome October
I. Love. Fall. Even when I’m so busy, I forget to get out of my concrete block building at work. Even when Shrek is away at his third football game of the weekend. Even when it’s deer season, and I’m on my own with these four beautiful kiddos. I love fall. And today is a […]
From the Trenches (& an Origami Owl giveaway!)
Oh, momma is tired. The bad news is that in less than twelve hours, I’ll be at work dealing with a couple of firestorms that have cropped up over the weekend. The good news is that I have celebrated ten years of marriage, launched my own side business and cleaned and decorated my house for […]
Little Warrior
This little man is a trooper. He’s had double ear infections for about 8 weeks now, and, other than his poor sleeping habits, you wouldn’t know it. We have tried three different antibiotics in this time, and the verdict is in: we’re headed for tubes. And as soon as possible. Like maybe this week or […]
Something More
We’re full throttle into Halloween weekend around here. The pirate, Power Ranger, dinosaur and Mickey Mouse are all ready to go. I, Spider Girl, have a full slate of events scheduled this weekend, not only of the Halloween variety but of the wedding and baby variety as well. Joe Dirt is still out from last […]
Right Where I Need to Be
Ahhh, life. I’m happy, busy, stressed, tired, loved and blessed… usually all at once. I am holding on to my reasons, my job, my blog, my dreams. I trust that I am exactly where I need to be. Where I needed to be this past weekend was Lake Tweet. And the Waterford Fair. And, on […]
Hitting the Brakes
I have been absolutely clobbered by how fast life seems to be going lately. My little girl, who will be seven in a couple of weeks, is less than a foot shorter than me! And I’m not short. Max is becoming a little man and teaching me the names of farm machinery we see working […]
Time Marches On
I snapped these photos of the kids last fall. While we’re still not quite to this stage of crisp air and fallen leaves, I feel it coming soon. These three are all a year older and less innocent, and we have another one on the way. Speaking of the baby, I have begun to feel […]
