Evie is at that fun age where it seems like we are at the doctors office every few months just to keep her properly vaccinated. It literally seems as if they are due for one or two shots every three months from the time your child is born until they hit 2. Not that I'm … Continue reading 15 months and fabulous
I’m a cool mom
So.... I work. I work my happy little butt off. And my husband still brings home more bacon than me. Rightfully so.Everything that man calculates, he does in his head, standing on the side of a busy highway, cars zooming past him, while arguing with someone else who thinks they know better than he does. Every decision … Continue reading I’m a cool mom
Take me away… to a green island!
I have become obsessed with the color green. I want it everywhere in our house. Everywhere..... Let me start by saying, I love our kitchen. There are countertops as far as the eye can see. But, in recent weeks, the island has started to bother me. There's just so much darkness. Black and brown, … Continue reading Take me away… to a green island!
Groceries, groceries, groceries
Lee Thomas has not been to the grocery store since March. And my boy LOVES the grocery store. Or, "the blue store," as he calls it. This morning, with D already gone for work and Evie still snoozing, I plopped down on the couch beside Lee with my laptop and started building a grocery pick-up … Continue reading Groceries, groceries, groceries
A LITTLE CRAZY
As we were walking up the sidewalk towards the front door of the kids Daycare this morning, my kids were on a whole other level of crazy. Evie was holding my hand and trying to keep up with her brother, who was a few steps ahead of us. A Daycare Dad, Will, had just walked … Continue reading A LITTLE CRAZY
Talking to a Toddler (Pt. 2)
Scene: Pulling into the Daycare parking lot. The building beside the daycare was having a new roof installed. Lee: Hello up there! Lee: (Louder this time) I said, hello up there! Man on roof: Hey down there! Lee: What are you doing up there, my man? Scene: D, Lee and I are laying in bed … Continue reading Talking to a Toddler (Pt. 2)
The Crazy Days
I know, I know.. it's been a while. But ya'll, I'm tired. Evie is absolutely crazy right now. In the mornings before school and in the afternoons until dinner is served she wants to be on your hip. Lee is going through some type of regression (probably because of Evie) and has just completely lost … Continue reading The Crazy Days
The Great Outdoors
Due to a teething fever of 100.4 on Monday afternoon, sweet Evie got herself and her brother kicked out of daycare for 48 hours (per the new COVID guidelines for daycares in our state). In an effort to get the munchkins out of the house (and ready for naptime) I brought them to the park … Continue reading The Great Outdoors
My Wild One
There's something raw about having children that no one ever warns you about. People will tell you that you won't sleep for the next twenty years and you won't be able to go to the restroom by yourself ever again. You'll be warned about how much food toddlers and teenagers consume and how much pee … Continue reading My Wild One
Just a lot
I yelled at Lee this morning. I had Evie on my hip, a spare change of clothes for Lee’s cubby in one hand, a cup of coffee in the other and my purse and work bag on my shoulder. Evie and I were standing in front of the door, waiting on Lee so that we … Continue reading Just a lot
