{79/365} Updates and March Madness…
So at our house it is all basketball all the time…it is hard to say no when Little Man LOVES to watch basketball ~ any sport really! So today I was watching at Kansas got knocked off their high horse. I say that with love ~ because really no one should HAVE to lose, but these guys thought they had it in the bag and they get knocked off by a 9 seed. Aaron says that Bill Self just chocked but I don’t know karma has a wonderful way of biting one in the b*tt! Sorry to those of you whose brackets are now broken beyond repair. Some cute things that the kids have been doing lately: (1) “More peese” complete with the signs for more and please! Little Man started this … Read entire article »

{58/365} Budding Artists
Today I brought downstairs the double art easel, some white paper and the crayons. I didn’t think they would care as the only place that they use crayons is at restaurants (and probably just then because we eat out so little so it is like something that is a little new and different).

Our little artists at work: … Read entire article »

Little Man points to everything and I mean everything and asks “what is that” even if he knows full well what it is. Those are pretty much his only words (he also says “ot-oh” and “whoo whoo”) that you can for sure tell what he is saying (he “talks” to his sister ALL the time but we have not a clue what they are saying). So I thought for ONE minute you could all hear what I heard all … Read entire article »

{5/365} Moving on Up…
Today is one of those days…a day where I love it and hate it at the same time. I have been waiting for the day when I can understand more clearly what Little Man and Little Princess are saying. For the most part I am there BUT what I didn’t realize was that with this stage comes two things (1) the child wanting to be more independent and (2) all of the imitation. So as you can guess #1 is what made me hate today. We must eat on our own and play on our own and if either does not get his/her own way then a MASSIVE fit happens. I think zero time outs happened today as I was able to defuse on my own but I did threaten a … Read entire article »
