After reading quite a bit about Life Lists from both jodimichelle and Mighty Girl, I’m starting to give more thought to creating a list of my own. A Life List is just that, a list of things you want to see, do, or accomplish in your lifetime. So, why not just do it instead of [...]

Yesterday we made a trip to the art store.  This is a big deal for Abbi because the girl loves to do art projects.  And she loves stickers.  So, since Tim was going to be gone for a few days I thought we would pick up a few fun little art projects that we could [...]

I guess you could say I am a middle child.  I am the third born of four.  My parents expected me to actually be the youngest but, five months after I was born, they were surprised with the news of a fourth pregnancy, thus bumping me somewhere in the middle. And, since we as humans [...]

And when I say “dust” I mean the dust accumulating while I don’t post. Things have gotten a little busy in my little world lately. I’m finishing up a site design for this really cute retreat center, I’m trying to get Go Go Gadget Mom up and running consistently, I’m trying to keep my email [...]

Hey, did you know that there is some sort of Health Care Crisis going on in our country? Ok, bad joke. Seriously though, I think we are in a crisis but I think you might be surprised to find out why I think it is a crisis. First let me say that I think it [...]

If you don’t know, and you probably don’t since I have yet to really mention anything here about it, I have another website that I just started.

Abbi told me a few weeks ago that she wanted to go to Africa to see the animals. Ok kid, let’s go! Ok, so we can’t actually pick up and fly off to Africa for a safari (not yet at least) but we could go to the zoo. And that’s what we did! On somewhat [...]

We’ve decided that we’ll be staying in our house a little longer. For a few reasons actually. The current market here really stinks so even trying to sell just doesn’t appeal to us. And we’re ok with where we are. We have a decent size yard with plenty of room for the girls and dog [...]

This is something that has always baffled me. Tipping. (Note: I’m going to be referring to tipping as it applies to the United States because that is really all I’m familiar with. Tipping amounts and customs vary based on country and region.) Wikepedia says a tip “(also called a gratuity) is a payment made to [...]

Having two girls it is hard not to compare them. My husband and I are always saying, “Wow, Abbi never did that” or “Remember when Abbi did that” in response to things that Zoe is doing. It’s not that we’re that what or how Zoe does things is better or worse than how or when [...]
