So you remember Grace. My Zambonie girl. The girl who I said just days ago needed a wet/dry vac attached to her tush? Well, she has amazed me once again!!
She's for real potty trained. All of a sudden.
She goes into the bathroom, closes the door and instructs me to stay out.…

Okay, I saw one of those infomercials on the ShamWow! and I thought "I've GOT to have one of those!!" It's one of those super towels that picks up a ton of liquid and doesn't drip, just squeeze it out and soak up some more! I (only half) joked that we need to put one under Grace's butt. It feels like we've been potty training FOREVER and between the pee puddles, the food and drink spills, this kid needs a wet/dry vac attached to her tush. I actually said out loud, "we need to put the ShamWow und…

Yup, my birthday. The big THREE-FIVE. Today. 35. Halfway to 40. I'm officially of "advanced maternal age." On the one had it sounds shocking, but for goodness sakes I've been married for 6 1/2 years and have 3 children. And yet, gulp, is that possible? Married? THREE kids??? already?? How does time slip by so quickly?
This morning I'm craving time to do whatever I please wishing my sweet ones would give me some peace and yet, what would I rather be doing? Okay okay, sure I wish I could take a l…

She's TWO!! Yup, two years ago on October 18th my little girl came out screaming so loud I thought my ears might start to bleed. And she didn't stop. My sweet Rose, then 26 months old, took to mimicking the scream so well we thought we'd surely lose our minds. Ahhhh those were…

So have you all heard the latest? No joke some crazy's were sitting around breastfeeding their babies, thinking "hey, breast milk is so good for our babies, it's the perfect food, why don't we all get to 'drink' the benefits?" So they contact Ben and Jerry's icecream and try and get them to make some icecream using breast milk. Can I hear a resounding IIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWW ???!!!
THANKFULLY Ben and Jerry's said NO, so now I not only have them to thank for my favorite "half…

I am loooooooooooving Sarah Palin. When asked what it's like being the Govenor and the mother of 5 kids she said sometimes she has to put down the blackberry and pick up the breast pump!! She has such a good sense of humor!!
And with our own children you know my two hands are never enough, so when I look around and see my husband standing nearby I can't resist wanting to plunk our baby into his arms! But I can tell you that every time I turn to my husband and say, "can you hold him for a minute…

I was just at sittercity.com (looking for anyone crazy enough to watch all 3 of my children :) and saw this ad there, so I just pasted it here in full. Let me know if anyone tries it!! As for us? We still don't get out much :) so let me know!!
"Think it costs an arm and a leg to take the kids out to a restaurant? It can, but only if you don't know about KidsMealDeals.com. KidsMealDeals.com is an awesome (and free!) website that lists restaurants that offer special discounts to children on any d…

Because he didn't stop crying long enough to get a decent photo I took this one of him the day after he turned 6 weeks. This photo makes him look HUGE, but he's looking so much more like a baby and less of a newborn. I'm still waiting for the famous "social smile" to ap…

Drum roll please.... the results are in! The doctor confirmed my suspicions that it's colic, but added another suggestion. Because he's gained a full 2 lbs (yup my boy weighs 10lbs 15 oz!) in just 3 weeks perhaps I'm overfeeding him leading to a belly ache and contribut…
