Last week was Spring Break for us and boy were the kids getting stir crazy! The little one came down with a fever and cough which derailed our plans for everyday fun. I took as much of the week off as I could from work and this blog, (did you miss me?!) and we tried to hit as many Read Post
Things Kids Say: The Super Bowl
I wasn’t going to let them stay up, it was a school night after all, and I’m a stickler for bedtime. But as I heard the girls singing in their beds and there were only 2:00 left to play in the half, I decided to break the rules. Katy Perry is their favorite after all! But of Read Post
Things Kids Say: Boys, Booty, & Beyond
Aaaaah, the holidays. What is it about Santa, the elves, and all the holiday chaos that brings out the silly and impetuous questions? Recently our now three year old started preschool, and has been learning a great deal about Christmas. And our oldest daughter in Kindergarten has unfortunately been learning about boys. So here are some Read Post
Things Kids Say: Kindergarten
We are a couple of weeks into the school year, and the transition has been less than smooth. Thankfully our daughter loves her teacher, and the school is fabulous….but the wake up time has been a killer. As has the car line. I have taken for granted though the magic of what back to school Read Post
Things Kids Say: Smart, Sassy & Silly
It’s hard to believe it’s already starting. At almost 5 1/2 years old, our first daughter is apparently smarter than us, mouthier than a teenager, and asking questions we’re not prepared to answer for another decade. My two year old is joining in as well…but her latest favorite subject is one I despise… potty talk. Read Post
Things Kids Say: Toddlers & Tiaras
I never imagined having two daughters, nor could I predict the amount of talking that would ensue. Now that our two year old is forming sentences, it’s become sheer comedy in our house. I understand only about half of what Emylia says, and our five year old is fabulous at translating. Warning, some of her Read Post
Things Kids Say: The Oscars
I realized this afternoon that it was Oscar Sunday, so as I was preparing dinner, I put on the pre pre pre show on E! My 5 year old of course had tons of questions, as I don’t think we’ve watched many non-animated movies. (except for Mary Poppins and Snow Buddies) So as I was Read Post
Things Kids Say…Figure Skating
Jason Brown brings down the house in Boston. If you haven’t seen his free program, google it. Amazing. With the 2014 Winter Olympics starting on February 6th, I figured it was time to get my daughter used to the television being tuned to winter sports, instead of Disney Junior. So today we watched the US Read Post
Things Kids Say: The Never Ending Questions
My 2 girls with my nephew Ryan. Cute huh? Until they start asking questions! Oh Yes. It’s begun. The incessant questions from my 4 year old have started…and with a flurry. First it was “why?” after I asked Lila to brush her teeth. Then “why do I have to eat my green beans?” And finally Read Post
Things Kids Say: Lila’s Take on Hoops
Selfie with my girl watching hoops! Rockin’ the witch hat. Once again my 4 year old darling Lila, (can you see my eyes roll?) cannot sleep due to a cold and fever. She wants to lay in bed with her mama and watch basketball. And as happy as I am to oblige her, the constant Read Post
