Josh joined the army and has been in boot camp since July. We have gotten lots of letters, thankfully, but tonight we got a photo of him. It is nice to see his smiling face! He’s the one on the left. I am assuming that is a Drill Sargent on [...]

Thomas the Train

We had a busy weekend. Ever since he was one, Connor has enjoyed Thomas the train. Evan played trains because he loves his brother but he’d leave them in a moments notice if Connor suggested something else. Garrett, like Connor, has a great time with Thomas and his friends.
Since the boys are [...]

SO, I told you about the bad haircut I gave Connor already. The next day he went to school but I did offer to bring him a happy meal at lunch. Second grade is much different than first. This year, when Connor sees me, he just smiles a little and sometimes, if I’m lucky, gives [...]

haircuts

One thing I have been wanting to do is to cut the boys hair myself. It seems crazy to hand over $40 every time they need a cut. So, I bought clippers that were highly recommended and planned on watching the DVD to learn how. Well, I can’t get the DVD to [...]

It started as a normal day, I was up and feeding my two little guys, then 2 years and 1 years old. We went downstairs and started to play around when my husband called. He was on a business trip, which was not unusual for him. He was traveling at least once [...]
The Best Compliment

I don’t know about your children but mine love to get messy. It doesn’t matter if it happens when they are eating or playing or even resting, if there is something to get on themselves, they will. I was talking to a guy at church who my husband and I are just getting [...]
Garrett’s First Day

Garrett started preschool for 3 year olds today. It was a tough decision but after much thought and prayer, we decided to do it. It is only one to two days a week and Garrett kept saying he wanted to go to school. I plan on doing my volunteer work when he is in school.
We [...]

There is a challenge going on around this blog world to make September the month to buy nothing extra or unnecessary. Our family is taking the challenge, not to the extreme of this family but the challenge nonetheless. We are off to a great start though we have made some questionable purchases. We went [...]
