Now that I am no longer working outside the home, Greg and I share the morning junior kindergarten prep duties which seems to work out really nice. Greg makes Adrianna breakfast and makes her lunch and snacks for school while I make sure her backpack is packed with all her necessary items for the day […]

Bedtime
Why is it that you sometimes can’t wait for your kid’s bedtime to roll around but then, after they are asleep, you can’t help but miss them and want to snuggle them? Today we had one of those button-pushing days today. More time-outs and talking back than usual, so Greg sent her straight to bed. (She […]
When Cousins are Two of a Kind
Did anyone else watch The Patty Duke Show when they were young? Nick at Night used to be so awesome. Marilyn’s comment on my last post (about how Adrianna and Layla looked so much alike in the picture where they were sleeping) reminded me of something else that happened over Thanksgiving. Both Adrianna and Layla […]
Just got back from taking Adrianna to urgent care. She has Croup and Pinkeye – double whammy. The medicine they gave her seemed to knock her fever out (thankfully, since it was getting up to 104). But getting the eyedrops in are another story. I sure am glad Greg works from home as it is […]
Baby Names
Though Greg has a name he really likes and I have a list of names, nothing has really stood out to me as THE name for this baby yet. I mentioned to Adrianna again today that we need to come up with a name for the baby. She told me she has “lots of names”. […]
Dancing in Walmart
After a dinner at Country Buffet tonight, we made a quick trip to Walmart to pick up some necessities. (Adrianna and I used up all our salt yesterday making some pink playdoh.) Adrianna really enjoys playing with the kiosks that play music samples. Tonight, she had quite a bit of energy to burn and started […]
Pink Playdoh
Making pink playdoh with Adrianna. Glad our neighbor (Nette) had some food coloring we could borrow.
Lucky Charms
Adrianna and I were at the grocery store today, picking up the items that we will be responsible for cooking on Thanksgiving (which we will be celebrating on Saturday with my family), along with a few other necessities. As we were walking down the cereal aisle, Adrianna spotted the Lucky Charms and asked me to […]
Lost and Found
If you don’t know where something is, ask the four year old. I had been missing my checkbook for a week and I mentioned it to her tonight and she “found” it in 2 seconds.
Strong
Adrianna was trying to fix the lid of one of our reusable water bottles. Somehow a part came off and needed to be snapped back on. I told her that Daddy could do it because he was pretty strong. She insisted that she was strong enough to do it because she eats her fruits and […]
