It doesn’t stop when you have a 2 year old running around. Today was no different, of course (or I wouldn’t have to write about it). Zane was being quiet and playing so nicely with his friend downstairs. He has trains galore so I allowed them their space (aka, I could get things done too) [...]
I learned: eating a Krispy Kreme for breakfast and another for lunch with a handful of jelly beans (and contemplating the same for dinner) DOES NOT EQUAL happiness (although I may have argued this as I was consuming)! Actually, what it does equal is the most extreme fatigue and need for sleep, a short fuse, [...]
Well, I ran across a topic today that I was hoping to never have to address until Zane was 20. : ) But, there I was, defenseless with no answers except the obvious. Don’t read on if certain names of body parts bother your ears. Zane: Mom, you have to go potty too? me: Yep [...]
It is my first 24 hours of 2 long weeks. I went to bed last night at a reasonable hour (12:00am) but did not follow the recommendation given by Jill (a bubble bath every night even if it is at 2:00am). I should have, but I have many more nights to make up for it. [...]
Dang, I wish I was better at organized thoughts and reducing posts. Am I really? : ) OK, so I have been slacking on my grateful journal-adding at least 5 things I am grateful for each time I post. I want to expand on that a bit. I want to add either things I am [...]
Zane gladly sat on my bathroom counter while I quickly showered and got ready to greet my day… He tangled his octopus in the necklaces and thought that was pretty cool. …Nevermind the fact that he first put on a necklace or two and a watch! Zoe comes home today. Her vibrant personality has [...]
This is funny, to me! I always hear noises in the car… clanking, vibrations, rattling, etc. Sometimes nobody can hear what I hear but I hear it. (Do you hear what I hear?) I think I got this from my dad. So, I have noticed that Zane is following right in my tracks. He says, [...]
Sometimes I have wires cross in my brain and I have a flash of a memory. Maybe I am the only one in the world that this happens to. In any case, I was driving yesterday and thought about the time I stayed in my very own hotel room, back in September I think. I [...]
We went to my mom’s for some delicious dinner (which by the way, my shorts no longer fit me after tonight). Zane and Gage were playing outside and my dad was telling them scary stories about the fake owl on the roof. I think he was pretending he had it’s baby in his shirt for [...]
I hear the sweetest noises next to my bed this morning… “Mommy, wake up. C’mon, I want you to play choo-choo trains with me.” When you live that daily, you think you would love to pass on those noises in the morning. Ahhh, it is the sweetest sounds I could ever hear. It was Zane, [...]
