  • Sorry, Wendy

    If you don't already know about Designer Digitals, I suggest you run right over and check it out. It's only the bestest digi site ever! But, really, this post is about Wendy, not Designer Digitals. Wendy writes a blog entry for the Designer Digitals Blog every week and it's called "3 Kits 3 Ways." In it,… Read more

  • which mom are you?

      Which TV Mom Are You? My Result: Claire Huxtable You are Claire Huxtable from The Cosby Show. You have high expectations for your children, just like you have high expectations for yourself. You've probably got your own life and your own career, but nothing is more fun than spending time with your family. You… Read more

  • Momma is a techie geek

    Oh yes, I am! Love me some techie toys! And this new baby is going to be a ton of fun! And, please, think of me tomorrow. As much as I hate spiders, I hate dentists more. And I'm going in tomorrow afternoon for some dental surgery. Ack. (Although I've been promised some pretty strong… Read more

  • Becoming a superhero, part III

Between gasps of air and hysterical bursts of screaming, I also… Read more

  • Olympic Day

    Last week, Elizabeth had Olympic Day at school. We used to call it Field Day when I was a kid, but it’s the same thing – lots of running races, potato sack races, shoe flings, etc… Just a fun, fun day to celebrate the end of the school year. This year was Libby’s first time… Read more

  • Good times

    ,

    Not 10 minutes after I posted this post, I found out that keeping the kids at their current school might work out after all. To say that we were shocked is a massive understatement. We took a few days to verify a few things, make sure that my work schedule could also be changed to… Read more

  • one of many

    So much good stuff that came out of this past week. I’ll update with the details in a bit, but I saw this photo and just had to post it. Just one of many very happy moments from the past week. I can’t help but grin at how happy they all are together. Read more
