Yes, I know I shouldn’t, but this week I resorted to sound effects and role playing to encourage my littlest one to eat something other than his usual repertoire of applesauce, chicken nuggets or spaghetti.
I know it’s wrong, but seriously I’ve tried everything else! (And, I might add that I’m wide open to any suggestions you may like [...]
Fun isn’t it?
The other day, the boys and I headed down to Daddy’s work to meet him for a lunch date on his birthday as he was going to pulling a late one at the office.
We got to the Cracker Barrel restaurant that is right next to DH’s place of work. Now, Logan still has huge separation [...]
Got a joke for ya:
How many people does it take to babysit your kids when you’re not around?
Two.
One to entertain the littlest one and the other to just maintain order!
I know! It’s not REALLY a joke, but I found it rather amusing! Both my Mum and my sister came over yesterday to babysit my boys [...]
So, this morning I actually made it to a playgroup with my toddler group. With the older kids being out of school, I haven’t made it to much of anything, but am bound and determined to get to a couple of events each week. Well, just so long as it is something I can drag the [...]

I have to dress up? Not one to disappoint, I eventually decided on my denim trousers and a flouncy blouse that I hoped would hide [...]
My humblest apologies for the lack of posts lately, but I’ve been busy keeping the in-laws busy!!
I do have a funny tale to tell though from yesterday! So, I was at the gas station pumping gas, as you do when at a gas station, when Logan started fussing. I started making funny, goofy faces at him [...]
So, my oldest son came home from school a couple of days ago and informed me that his class was having a tea party and he had volunteered me to make a dozen or so scones (pronounced the proper way as in con not cone please) for everyone, cream and jam included. What the . . . [...]
Hermits beware!!!
Boy, I am relieved about the findings of a research study out of Sheffield University this month. Apparently, it discovered that sociable parents have brighter children which basically means that the more partying you do as a parent, the better your child will perform on school tests!
The study examined the social lives of 3,000 parents, finding out whether [...]
