It's so funny to go out in public and note the differences between toddlers. I took Noah and Peyton to the mall today to get out of the house and there were babies and toddler EVERYWHERE. (Noah rode the choochoo train through the mall all by himself for the first time, which was incredibly nerve wracking...but he sat down the whole time and was very good!). It's just interesting to see parents' expectations of their toddlers and the different temperaments that toddlers have. One lady had a ... View Post
Field of Pretty Flowers
At what point do you stop sheltering your babies from the sad things in the world and tell them the truth? I've decided that 2 is too young.Nearly every day I take Noah and Peyton with me to the gym, which is right across the street from a large cemetery. The headstones in the cemetery are all flat on the ground so all that someone sees when they drive by is flowers marking each grave. Noah loves looking at it through the window.We drive by every day and every day he says, "Woooow, Mommy!" ... View Post
Mamavation Monday (er…Thursday).
I forgot to do my Mamavation Monday post this week!The past 2 weeks I didn't work out at ALL. First the boys were sick for a week and then I was sick for a week...so nothin. I ran maybe twice. This week I decided to switch things up a bit and go back to Bodypump at the gym. Bodypump builds my leg muscles so that my running times improve dramatically...I love it. I went both Monday and Wednesday and honestly haven't eaten all that well....pizza for dinner one night and leftover pizza the next ... View Post
Family Update (with pictures!) :)
Hi friends! I miss interacting with people....but I'm not gonna lie, I really don't miss Facebook! :) haha. I am getting SO much more done than I did before I gave it up. When I sit down to do homework I can finish in an hour or less, compared to the 3 or so hours it used to take me to get the same work done because I was distracted on Facebook. The other night I sat down to do work and when I got done I assumed it was 12:30, the usual time it is when I finally get my work done...no. 10:00. HAH. ... View Post
Surprise Review and Giveaway!
Surprise! We wanted to thank those of you that are still following us and still checking out the blog while we're away on our Lent Facebook hiatus. I miss being on the page and interacting with all of you, but I'm getting homework done in RECORD time right now. I'm also cranking out the superhero capes...love it! We have been experimenting with new laundry detergents, especially for our cloth diapers. Tide built up on our diapers and gave us huge smell issues which we're still trying to get rid ... View Post
Happy Valentines Day! :)
Hola! Today was my second full day away from Facebook....it's going great! I have noticed that when I sit down at my computer my fingers type "Facebook.com" before my brain even registers what I'm doing. I've had to stop myself quite a few times from accidentally logging on...but it's worked! No Facebook for 2 days :) How is the blog page doing over there?! ;)Today the boys and I went to a puppet show at the library for Valentines Day. It was super cute and Noah was wonderfully behaved the whole ... View Post
