My sister comes tomorrow!  Hip hip hooray!  My sister comes tomorrow!  Yay oh yay oh yay oh yay oh yay!
Hmmm.  I should probably at least get the bathroom clean for her.

What Was I Thinking?

Ches left this morning for band camp.  He left the house at 5:30 am, while the rest of us were snoozing away in our beds.  By 7 am I had all three boys in my bed, laughing and playing.  At 7:40 am Ches called to say he forgot a few things, so could I gather [...]

The End

I’m done.  It took me about 24 hours to read (and that includes all the stopping I had to do for things like sleep, feeding children, bathing children, searching the house for Ches’ driver’s license and birth certificate, and answering the stupid phone just to tell stupid telemarketers thanks but no thanks for umpteenth time!).  [...]

IT FINALLY CAME!!!

A friend of mine came over to borrow some kid CDs (the kind that won’t drive a parent nuts) for a long car trip, and the mailman arrived at the same time.  This is what was handed to me:

So it’s not as fancy as Karen’s or Heather’s boxes, but I still get the cool sticker!! [...]

Bah!

Parker said his first word today.  As Ches was leaving to take the car in for an oil change, Parker raised his hand in the air and said “Bah“.  I’m sure you can all translate as I did.  Bah means bye.  Apparantly, Parker had said the same thing to me a little earlier as I [...]

More On Harry Potter

It’s time to answer questions that Karen had on her post. To leave the answers in her comment box would have been just too lengthy (we all know how much I love to talk!) and i have some other stuff to add, anyway. And now, without further ado…
1. How did you get [...]

For Better or For Worse

This is SO what it’s like in my house.

Rain, Rain

Every summer at this time in Phoenix is the start of monsoon season.  While it is normally extremely hot and dry, we get a slight reprieve with all the rain that comes.  Last night we got a really good thunderstorm… lots of thunder (ka-chigga, ka-chigga!), lots of lightening (ka-chow!) and a lot of rain. 
As soon [...]
