Build and Grow Workshop - October
Time once again for the build and grow update. Twice a month Lowes presents a Build and Grow Workshop for kids. T loves to go and loves the projects. Today’s project was a Frankenstring Magic Trick. (Pull the string out one side and it is red. Pull it out the other side and it is [...]
Severe Weather
This was a bad week for weather. I should learn to be more tuned into watching the weather channel or looking at weather.com because it always seems as if the inclement weather sneaks up on me.
This past Friday the weather caught us off guard again while L and I were on a date night. We [...]
My Random Tuesday
I like Tuesdays. I like them because it seems the best day to just blurt stuff out and not worry about putting things into any logical order. I think that Keely over at the UnMom is to thank for allowing us this Tuesday freedom from order by coming up with her weekly Random Tuesday Thoughts.
1. [...]
Sick Little Girl
There should be a law. The law should say that kids in preschool have to wash their hands every 30 minutes. You might be able to guess why I would be an advocate for this new law, which sadly is not and will never be a real law. We are all sick again. It is [...]
His First Two Wheeled Bike
Is it just me, or are kids not supposed to be excited about bicycles? I remember one Christmas my older brother and I got matching three speed bicycles. They were WAY too big for me. I mean sitting on the seat I couldn’t even get my feet to touch the pedals, never mind put them [...]
Tales From the Toilet
Let’s place a disclaimer here: For anyone who doesn’t want to hear about the musings of a toddler about poop, come back tomorrow and hopefully I will have moved on to another subject.
A month ago I was waiting patiently for T to finish his business on the toilet. “Are you done yet?” I asked. “Not [...]
Reading the longer books.
I am not sure how old kids should be when you move up to longer books. Where is the point when they go from those short books that take five minutes to read and don’t require them to remember a story line for too long, to the longer books that you read a little bit [...]
Disney Pixar Cars for Wii
Have I mentioned that we too love our Wii game system. I read so many blogs where people talk about their Wii games and how much they love them. It seems to be all the rage lately. This past Christmas T received the Disney Pixar Cars video game. He loved the movie Cars. It was [...]
Are You Kidding Me???
The bronchitis came back and my nose is stuffed up again. How am I supposed to run a farm if I am feeling deathly ill and can’t breathe. (Yup, still overly dramatic.) Seriously though, this is the same thing I just got over. We send T back to school for two days and BLAM! he [...]
Rambling Man
I don’t even know what to write about anymore. I don’t want to write about being sick any more, even though that is what is dominating our lives here. (L is more sick than before, and I am a little less sick.) Oddly enough I just thought I would write some random thoughts and see [...]
