Last Night the kids did really well, slept through the night unless I woke them up for medicine. I tried to give them both regular Tylenol but about 2 hours later they were complaining about their throats, so we went back to the Tylenol with codeine. Addie took a 3 hour nap today and Reed […]

My daughter is at a funny age right now, she keeps doing things that really crack us all up. For instance:
Saturday night we go to eat supper. I tell all the kids to get their jackets and get in the car. Ryan gets his, Reed get his and Addie goes and gets her Boa, puts […]

Okay, so last night my mind got working. I was up until after 12am and then at 3am I was up again. What for do you ask? Addie’s celebration at school, Halloween parties and making cookies for Addie’s class. At 4am, I woke up Tim to tell him I couldn’t sleep (it only seems fair […]

(2:42pm) Well, the two little ones are napping and I have a few minutes alone to sit- it is a good feeling. I often check my email and blogs while standing at the kitchen counter while the kids are eating or playing, but today I am sitting on the couch, in the living room- just […]

Our family had great weekend. Friday night we had a soccer game which was fun, even though we lost again. Saturday morning we had two soccer games, which of course we lost, but we had fun. Then we went to lynches River State Park for the Fall Frenzy. The kids had a blast. The got […]

Throwing a question out for anyone- I got a Fisher Price ride on Truck for Ryan for his birthday. I got it at the Salvation Army. It runs- but it only runs very slowly, even with a charged battery. Does anyone know how to fix little trucks or tell me what I can do to […]

My son, Ryan, loves to watch Max and Ruby or “Ma and OOO-EE” as he calls it. That is an improvement, at least I know what he is saying now. The funny thing about this show is that from the time that Ryan was little, maybe 6 months old, people have said that he gives […]

The first day of fall was last week and along with that comes sickness. For years we have dealt with Reeds asthma flaring up this time of year which would lead to Bronchitis and Pneumonia- this year seems to be Strep Throat. Addie got sick Thursday night and last night Reed got the fever. I keep […]

Being a mom has many taught me many things, such as patience and love like I never knew existed. I never thought that It would take 20 minutes to get inside a store or school or church from a parking spot right outside the door- but it does. At times, it is frustrating, but today, […]

I love my Reed, he is a sweet kid that normally does what he is told and doesn’t cause any problems. Lately he has been into making money. His grandparents pay him really good money to pick up pine cones so he is very willing to go over there and pick them up. This week he […]
