Scissors and August Birthdays

My latest parenting quandary, as the mom of a summer baby, has been the age-old "to kindergarten...or not to kindergarten." Back in April I made a command decision, with help from daycare providers, grandparents and teacher-friends, that Steven was ready. He won't turn 5 until August 31...

Still a Little Young for In-Ear Headphones

Since I'm on vacation this week, you're stuck with photos from home. This is one of Steven singing loudly along with the " Hot Dog " song from Mickey Mouse Club. And no, I did not set this up. He manages these weird poses all by himself. [ImageAttachment]

The Ultimate Water Cooler

Today was a freakishly busy day...so much so that I just realized I didn't post my daily photo. And it's almost 8 pm. As my brother would've said years ago, "Smooth move, ex-lax!" So here I am at home, having just finished mowing my yard into bales of hay, determined to post something...

Open Your Eyes

Yesterday we were lucky enough to spot what I later discovered to be a circumhorizontal arc , which lasted for all of 5 minutes. It felt like a gift from Mother Nature herself on a day just for mothers. This is not my photo (can you believe I was without my camera for one second), but close to what we...

3D

It isn't very often I see a movie on opening weekend, but with the early spring snow putting a damper on outdoor activities yesterday, we decided to check out the only kid-friendly movie playing - Monsters vs. Aliens . The ticket price was an alarming $11 a pop (unless you count Steven saving me...

What was your first Heritage experience?

I'm home today with a sick kid, and although he's doing much better, I can't really say the same for myself. Nothing like spending the entire night cleaning up after an hourly "cookie-toss." And I mean hourly. From 10pm to 7am. I didn't realize someone so little could have so...

Cold Snap Hysteria

It's currently -6 degrees outside my window, having dropped almost 30 degrees since last night. I can't complain though -- I'm snug as a bug, and obviously very lucky in the grand scheme. But I will complain later when I'm making the trek to my car with the sound of ridiculously dry snow...

Mac 'n' Cheese

So I was going to post a photo of my RVX 42 s with the Christmas tree in the foreground, to you know, keep it "Klipsch-y," but while skimming through my photos, I found this, which was snapped only to test the lighting in the room. I feel compelled to post it because not only does it show off...

Thomas the Tank Engine

Daily Photo Some of you were curious what the little feller dressed as last week, so here you go. He waffled between Thomas and Batman, so I think next year will see the end of the toddler-themed costumes. Sigh. It all goes so fast, doesn't it? [ImageAttachment]

Future Football Hall of Famers, + One Engineer

Daily Photo In celebration of being knee-deep in football season, and the weather finally feeling like football season, I am posting this photo of Steven with his cousins from our annual camping trip in Ohio over the weekend. Although he couldn't keep up with the older boys athletically, Steven earned...
