I’m back!

I’m back!

I know it’s been a while…ok that’s an understatement, it’s been WAY TOO long since I’ve written a post here! I will not bore you with lame excuses, because in fact there aren’t any. Since my last post, Funny turned 4 and Sunny turned 2 and my husband left his full time job to pursue […]

Inspiration (#1)

As the new year rolled around, I challenged myself to write a post each week. However the past two weeks I have been feeling slightly uninspired and well just plain ick with the winter woes.  Thankfully spring is on its way and we have had a few 50 degree days to perk the spirits up. […]

The Age or A Stage?

The Age or A Stage?

My Funny man is generally a very sweet and lovable guy.  However, lately he has been “anti-mommy”.  It isn’t so much that he doesn’t want me around, it is just that he pushes and pushes my buttons until I’m ready to burst.  It is just then when I do burst that I feel terrible and […]

Funny Bones

Round two of the stomach bug hit Funny this weekend.  Poor kiddo is such a trooper though and as of today is feeling much better (thankfully). Funny is such a great kid, I mean I know he’s mine, but he is really something special.  He is going to be 4 in a few months, which […]

“Real” Housewifes..

“Real” Housewifes..

So I’m sure you’ve heard, if not seen, one of those “real” housewives shows…now I’m not here to bash them, I’m just here to tell you the truth!  Let me tell you about the life of a “real” housewife..myself! Tuesday morning after I drop Funny off at Preschool, Sunny and I go visit a few […]

Just a reflection

Just a reflection

Thank you for reading my blog last week.   I felt that my post about my moms passing was rather “dark” for me – however I allowed myself to do it this year.  Never before have I acknowledged that day in such a public way and it felt good. I took the time to feel […]

Living with our decisions as parents

Living with our decisions as parents

Just a quick post today to hopefully make you laugh. This morning, as my husband was on his way out the door to work he says “I think Sunny has a diaper…!” (thats man talk for you need to change him!!)  So I took Sunny upstairs and got him all cleaned up, but before I […]

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, now what’s going to change???  I have a fear of resolutions, why? Because I am so bad at following through with them.  I am so hesitate to even speak of what I might change for fear that I will not actually be able to do it.  Two years ago I resolved to […]

I’m not alone

I’m not alone

I was reading one of my favorite blogs today, when I came across this picture of a mom lying on a rug surrounded by toys,  ”Ahhhhh so I’m not alone!” I said to myself.  It was so refreshing to see this picture to know that somewhere out there, there is a mom who tries her best […]

Long Days, Short Years

Long Days, Short Years

Before I became a Stay at Home mom, someone told me that my “days would be long, but my years would be short” with the kids.  I really didn’t understand what this person meant, but as I was soon going to find out! I am constantly trying to figure out things for us to do, […]

Patchwork Quilt

As you may have read in my last post When It Rains, It Pours, my best friend is moving – in fact she just moved this past weekend. She has always been like a sister to me and although the distance now will be inconvenient for a quick get together, it shouldn’t impact our friendship […]

When It Rains, It Pours!

When It Rains, It Pours!

So I know its been a long time since I’ve posted, but its with good reason. On top of my husband having all four wisdom teeth pulled, then needing follow up for two of them which didn’t heal, our entire family was sick.  And when I say sick I mean, worse then I’ve ever experienced…including […]
