This Friday, I’m feeling all kinds of determined. I have talked about my fitness woes before. You all were full of suggestions and support! Love that! 🙂 Things are slowly turning around for me in that area. It all started with Twitter. Yep, Twitter. I got a tweet from a workout group here in the […] Read more…

First Day Jitters
Sometimes we’re ready for the stuff that comes our way. At other times we have to get ready. My first baby started elementary school yesterday. I had so much anxiety about it all. I was totally nervous about him fitting in, making friends and all of that. Preschool was one thing but this…this is big […] Read more…
Story time with a Garden View
This summer, has been interesting. I have, for the first time, been at home with both of my babies pretty much full time. That has led to us really being a little unit. I love that. It has also led to me being in constant planning mode with finding things for us to do. There […] Read more…
School Shopping with Schoola #clothes4schools
Our house is full of kids toys and clothes. Some of them are in use, some are not. I have been in the process of bagging things up and getting them ready to be given away or sold. At first, my son had a problem with this. He was not amused by me taking his […] Read more…
When Working Out Doesn’t Work Out
In my old life, I was a work out maven. Mostly when I was single. I worked out five days a week, two hours a day. I loved it. Sure, it was probably keeping me single but I was in shape! I looked good, y’all! Fast forward to my newlywed days. I used to get […] Read more…

I Think It’s Already Started… American Girl
My thought is that it’s inevitable. At some point most little girls develop this love for a baby doll. My daughter is no different. She is absolutely over the moon about her “baby”. She won’t give “baby” a name. I suggested naming here Jasmine. She looked at me and said, “no, BABY”. Her little face […] Read more…

The World Cup Invades… the playground
Yesterday, I got up determined to get out of the house. As much as my kids love being at home, it seems like they need more space to roam for them to get ALL of their sillies out. The issue is, if they don’t get enough running and jumping out of their little systems, nap […] Read more…
If I Could Find The Time…
There are a few things I don’t get to do much of these days. Reading books and watching movies are on that list. I find myself way too busy these days to get to do much of that. The last book I read from start to finish was called “Me Too, Iguana”. It’s a book […] Read more…
