I Love Your Earrings!
Just Like My Daddy…
It’s dinner time.
Dinner tonight is a savory meal of rice, moist, delicious roasted chicken, and nicely seasoned vegetables. Hubby has a meeting after work so he’ll be eating his dinner later. But my boys, aged 5 and 3, need to eat now – a little extra play time, clean up time, bath time, and bedtime [...]
Don’t Forget To Spank Him!
We have a side by side fridge & freezer – one of those with a freezer from top to bottom on the left side, and a fridge from top to bottom on the right side. It saves us a lot of space – we don’t need a deep freezer in addition to a huge fridge. [...]
Big Bummed?
Ok this is pretty silly but I just wanted to share it with you guys:)!
The other day, the kids and I were hanging out doing a bunch of different things, trying to quickly get the day started, when my 2yr old took a long look at my behind and suddenly announced:
“That’s a really big [...]
Got Your Shot?
My boys – aged 4 and 2, absolutely love to play pretend. One minute our home is just a regular home, the next minute it’s been converted into space, a rocket ship, or a fantasy island full of hidden treasure. It never ceases to amaze me, how much fun they can have with the most [...]
It’s Not Up to Them!
A little while ago, the boys had been happily playing with their toys when they both decided they wanted to play pretend with Barney and Leapfrog, two of their favorite stuffed animals. The animals were both out of their reach that day, so they asked if I would get them (My 4yr old wanted his [...]
Don’t want kisses…
It was a typical evening, just a few days ago. We were all tired after what had been a long and busy day, each one of us dealing with their day and their work the best way they could. I sat on the couch watching the boys play, thinking – I’ll catch my breath before [...]
No, He’s not a girl!!!
It was a quiet Sunday afternoon yesterday…we were all home – everyone relaxing or otherwise going about their business. My 4yr old and I were at the dining table on our computers, my 2yr old was playing in the living room, and hubby was in the bedroom sorting out stuff. I was enjoying the quiet [...]
Samosa Days, Giraffe Nights, Puppies, etc: A Thank Fest
I am thankful.
My home is currently extremely messy and is truly a shame to behold – we’ve all been pretty sick (each of us in varying degrees) this past week, and everything except the essential stuff has taken the back burner. I am thankful we have a home to live in – the mess can [...]
Tatu Yod…Ees!
Some time ago, I was getting the kids ready for bed … we were all happy but were also pretty tired after what had been a very long Saturday of playing very hard for most of the day. We were running very late for bedtime, so after brushing their teeth and getting their pjs on, [...]
Pace Setter
So..things started off a little bit different at our home this morning. I’m getting ready to fix breakfast for the kids when my 2yr old announces: “I want to eat rice and efo and meat!”. My 4yr old chimes in – “I’d like some oatmeal!” Oatmeal I definitely get, but rice and efo, so early [...]
