We Love the Olympics

kids

My husband and I both love the Olympics. The excitement and inspirational stories about the athletes are so heart warming that you just can't help but cheer them on and follow their journey as medal hopefuls. As children we dreamed of being Olympic athletes and would pretend to do whatever sport was being showcased on television that day. Chad especially loved the summer games and would dress up as a gymnast (dressed in short shorts and a sweat band!) He would do flips around the house and use the couches as parallel bars. How I wish I could have seen him as I child. But I digress... So View Post

Come on Smarty Pants!

Comedy Spot

I have been calling Carson smarty pants lately because it just amazes me how much he knows and retains. Of course I haven’t paid much attention to saying this until we were out shopping this weekend. Carson was in rare form on Sunday. As we were perusing the isles of Target and hurrying to get to the toy section, Carson shouts “come on farty pants!” He must have been speaking to daddy, because I certainly didn’t have the toots. Oh how kids will say the funniest things at the most random times! Follow: Pinterest / Instagram / Bloglovin View Post

Then shape the dough however you want. Place it on the floor and have your little one make impressions with their feet. We inscribed a little note so she View Post

No Regrets

family

There are those days when the moment I wake up, I just know it's going to be one of THOSE days. The craziness seems to ensue before my feet have even hit the floor and I beg for nap time to get here soon. Why does he have to wake so early on a Saturday? Does he really have to ask why 200 times a day? How come he never wants to play by himself when I'm in the midst of sweeping the floor? But when I finally take a deep breath, I know that before long he will be a teenager and will not want to talk to me and certainly not want to clean house! It's then that I swoop him up in my arms and View Post
