We got a new car!
Of the Flintstone variety, that is. Last month I was driving the kids somewhere with Tony’s sister in tow. We passed a house with a toy car out front labeled free. My favorite word! We shoved it in the van, took it home, then went about our business. It was fairly dirty from being outside.…

Time to make the donuts
My parents were down a few weekends ago and wanted to take the kids somewhere fun. Corinne got a Valentine from one of her classmates that included a free donut from Krispy Kreme. Sounded like a good time to me! The kids loved it. Here’s the tour if you’ve never been: First, the massive dough…

Mason rocks the house
Mason has his quirks. That’s what makes me love him so much. I was flipping through the pictures and found some that really capture who he is at the moment. I have been trying for MONTHS to get the boy to wear a tie to church. Two Sundays ago after I put his shirt on,…

Chalk another one up for the Wii
I am not a fan of video games. I admit I have enjoyed playing Halo occasionally with my hubby and his buddies, but nothing comes close to the Wii. I am controller retarded. The Wii just makes sense to me since you act out real motions in order to play. Not push a series of…

Ethan is 9 months old
Today was another appointment at the pediatrician’s office. I feel like we are regulars.

They just don’t make ’em like they used to…
Ears, that is. It’s ridiculous. I can’t remember EVER having an ear infection as a child. Mind you, my mom was one of those moms that believed in mind over matter and never took us to the doctor. (That’s how I ended up with a burst appendix and gang green internally in the 3rd grade,…

Not just flowers are growing…
So is Ethan’s tooth! Tony doesn’t believe me. I’ve tried to hold Ethan still a few times to show him, but he’s in denial that his baby is growing up. I had to wrestle Ethan to get these pictures, but I think they prove my case. They aren’t my best pictures so cut me some…

Spring has sprung
I love spring. It could be a smidge cooler for me this year, but after the winter we’ve had, I won’t complain. The flowers are what get me. Here’s my favorites: Daffodils: There are so many types. I tend to like the traditional ones. I think it has to do with the scene in Willy…

I am sad, sad, sad
Some of our sweetest friends have sold their house and will be moving in June. I knew that they would be going. Medical school is ending. Residency is ripening to begin yet somehow I was in denial. Man. I remember when Stephanie first moved here. I’d like to take the honor of being her first…
