A Dark & Noisy Night

I’m a self diagnosed worry wart and the power of suggestion is a VERY powerful thing to my over active imagination.  Darn all those years devouring books and stretching my fantasy world. A few weeks ago, we had a pretty interesting night that all started when Chris and I innocently went to bed naively expecting…

Poster Board Star Art!

Lemme tell you there is not all that much inspiration out there {that I could find} for a “Star” birthday party.  There were “Rock Star” parties and “Star Wars” parties galore clogging up my search results, but very few simple STAR parties going on. I’m giving you THREE sweet tutorials from all our party goodness……

18 months old baby!

As it usually does, time has flown by, and our itty bitty baby is now a full steam ahead wild 18 month old. He’s been walking since he was 10 months old, so he is practically running these days and definitely keeps me going with his ‘antics.’ He absolutely loves the fun of scavenging in…

Finally Four. A Pinterest Par-tay.

Wade has been obsessively yearning to be four, for what seems like ages.  He has entertained us all by answering the question of “How old are you?” with a somber and woeful… “STILL three!” He was SO very impatient to finally reach this illustrious milestone.  Our theme this year for his big par-tay, was the…

Birthday News & Sponsor Love

Today our Wild Wadester is FOUR years old!  I can hardly believe it!  He has been itching to finally be FOUR for so long.  For a while now, when you asked him how old he is, he would sadly answer, “Stiiiiill three.”  Poor guy.  :) He is one crazy dude that definitely keeps us hopping….

The Toys are Taking Over…

Most of you know our unique living arrangement.  We are family of five living in a cozy TWO bedroom house… all up in each other’s bizness.  Our three kids all share a room and have for about a year or so.  They don’t have a large room, either, so fitting all the furniture in is…

Over Halfway There… 100th Day of School!

Even though it really seems like our year JUST STARTED, we just celebrated the big 100th Day of School last week!  I am glad to report after all my angst over what curriculum, and video vs traditional that we have been really happy with our choice of BJU Distance Learning.  A lot of our success…

The Nightmare Monster Buggy of Wal-Mart

As I alluded to yesterday, I did not have the greatest shopping experience last week with the obnoxious Monster Sized Wal-Mart Buggy. This image comes to mind… {source} As I’ve mentioned once or twenty times, I usually try to do whatever necessary to avoid shopping by myself with my three *beautifully behaved* {ahem} kiddos. Despite,…

Wadester

Living with my Wild Wade usually proves very interesting. Shame on me for NOT recording more of the mind blowing things that come out of his mouth, or the crazy things he gets into… For example… Last night as he shifted and “danced” in front of me, our convo went something like this…   Me:…

Christmas Outtakes 2011

Christmas is always a process when it comes to all the family gatherings, but it has evolved quite a bit over the years and was quite the different experience this year. In our early years of marriage, we awoke at the crack of dawn or before to open our gifts to each other before hitting…
