So, I have made it my new goal to get more fruits and vegetables in my kids diet…without fighting them. I know, your saying…Haha! Good Luck With That!
I was perusing books in Hastings the other day and found this book. I loved the ideas and although I don’t always think I should hide everything in [...]

Well, I have finally lost to 134.6 lbs! Woo-hoo! This last pound has taken WAY too long to get, but it put me back on track.
After some research, it came to my attention that perhaps 1300 calories was not enough for me with my workout schedule of 5 days each week. On those days I [...]

I found this wonderful recipe to try at Gourmet Mom on-the-Go to try for the boys. Big Brother is having a Valentines party tomorrow and I was asked by the teacher to bring Pretzels. I thought for a moment (a very quick moment) about making my own pretzels to take, but then saw this wonderful [...]

For once…something I did was TOO Hot for my hubby! My poor Mexican husband could not quite eat my salsa last night…The White girl made it too spicy!!! Ha!!! The funny part is I could eat it with no problem.

My morning breakfast conversation with Big Brother went about like this today:
Big Brother: “The thing on the cereal box.”
Me: “What about it?”
Big Brother: “You, know…that red thing on the cereal box!”
Me: “Big Brother, I don’t understand what you mean…what about it?”
Big Brother: “That THING on the CEREAL BOX at the STORE!!”
Me: “Please don’t raise your [...]

Any of you other Stay-at-home whatevers out there feel the need to create more work for yourself? I ask this because I find that I constantly am in this mode. I think I need to sit back and just RELAX a bit.

So lately Baby Boy’s understanding of words has grown by leaps and bounds. He says many things and understands even more.
His latest?
“I want a show!” (This was his way of asking for a new movie on the camera…we were taking video and he wanted to make one–He really use all those words verbatim!!)

A little while ago I posted about divorce and Big Brother asking about why Grandma and Grandpa no longer lived in the same house. It got me thinking and remembering back to when I was a kid. I remember always telling myself that if my parents ever got divorced, I would run away. That is [...]

Do normal people come home from work and spend time together before beginning their day again? Doc and I sat down together the other night and watched an episode of Friday Night Lights online. As we sat there, I said how nice it was just to sit for a while and spend time together. It [...]
