This morning we took Tia in for the procedure to clean out her ears. I was a little apprehensive before going in. It seemed like such a silly thing to do, putting our child out just to clean her ears. And because none of my children have ever been under anesthesia, I was just a […]

I’m not sure how it happened, but it seems that I blinked my eyes and this baby grew up… Blink…He’s 6 and he’s in Kindergarten! I never thought I’d get emotional sending Sloan off to school. In fact, I haven’t been at all emotional about it…until yesterday when I sat in the cafeteria of his […]

The Campout
August 17, 2009 by
On Friday, Lee bought a tent. For some time now, we’ve talked about wanting to campout with the kids. I have great memories growing up of camping with my family and I wanted to create similar memories for my children. So, with a little help from some very excited kiddos, Lee pitched a tent in […]

Lee and I have decided to take up running again. Well, a more accurate way to say that would be – Lee has already taken up running (he ran 4.6 miles the other night!) and I am gearing myself up mentally to do the same. I may never get around to it, but at least […]

Several times a week for the last month or so, when Sloan is home, he’s run out the door as the mailman came by to collect the mail. I haven’t paid much attention to this – I’ve just assumed he likes having this little responsibility and I’ve been grateful to him for it. Yesterday afternoon, […]

I’m late getting this up but my computer was having issues this morning. I think it had something to do with the 400 pictures I uploaded. I’m pretty sure I heard the computer cuss me out as she crashed – twice… Ah well, enjoy the photos. I’m sorry about the alignment – not only has […]

My kids spent the night at my parents’ house last night. Which means I slept in this morning. Until 8:00-please, try not to be jealous… After taking a long, leisurely shower where I actually shaved without nicking my leg because I was trying to rush, and running a few errands (including getting my driver’s license […]

It was tax-free weekend here. Which means the masses were out, ignoring the weak economy and indulging in some good old fashioned retail therapy. Even Lee got into the groove and so we packed up our adorable brood Saturday morning and headed out to buy a few things we needed and a bunch of stuff […]

For those of you who read my blog regularly, you know that I rarely dive into politics. There are two reasons I avoid political posts: 1.) I’m not the most articulate when it comes to expounding upon my political beliefs. I know how I feel and I believe in my convictions, but I don’t always […]

First, I must tell you that the prodigal dog hath returned. Yes – there has been a great deal of celebrating today, complete with a killing of the fatted calf… Okay, not really. But we did give her a leftover pork chop, which is pretty much the same thing so…Aaaanyway, we’re torn now. The kids […]
