I cannot believe that 5 years ago today this wonderful person entered our lives. Our TRex has filled our days with laughter and joy. His crazy antics are a constant source of amazement and entertainment. From day one he has shown his persistence and determination. We are better people, better parents with him in our lives. I am forever thankful to be able to be the mom of this little boy.Our miracle baby...
Has "dragoned up"...
We Love You TRex! Continue reading ...

Well, the Uhaul will be here this evening.
Things are a little crazy.
The house is a wreck.
The kids are insane.
I've lost most control of cleaning and regulating what's going on.
A few days of relaxed rules never hurt, right? I've got so much to do. Seriously, I'm looking around and thinking it's never going to be done. I'm to the point of just throwing random crap into boxes with the intention of sorting it out upon unpacking. My nice organized packing lasted all of a few hours! How does on... Continue reading ...

So, MckMama has given us a fun new twist on these posts! Join everyone in celebrating the crazy things your kids did NOT do this past week! Check out My Charming Kids for all the Not Me Monday fun!My TRex did NOT prove once again that boxes are often more fun than the toys that came in them.
Snappy certainly did NOT fall asleep in her Snoogie Seat this afternoon because someone (not me) forgot naptime. 
It's obvious that there was no fun to be had for TRex and Snappy at the bday party we attend... Continue reading ...

Cozy
Friedman, founder of So Cozy
products and Cozy’s Cuts for
Kids, says, “Kids nowadays are so style conscious. In fact, kids (and
parents) come into my salons everyday with pages torn out of magazines, asking
for styles that the children of celebrities are sporting. I consider this trend
part of what I call the ‘Mini
Metro’ phenomenon on, a new wave of youthful image consciousness in
which kids really want to look t... Continue reading ...

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.I did NOT receive the most exciting news this weekend. That unreceived news is NOT that the press release for something I recently participated in was out and available to the public.
I most certainly did NOT frantically and joyfully update my website and spread the word that Sarah Jessica Parker's twins have been gifted with tons ... Continue reading ...

We were at a high school baseball game. I love this shot. I love how it captures exactly what is going on. You don't even need to see the rest of the field to imagine the game!

Dear Nigerian Princess/Lawyer for the Deceased/Euromillion Lottery/et al.,I'm thrilled you've selected me to inherit your millions! I feel like the luckiest girl alive! Just yesterday a Prince left me as his benefactor and today I'm winning 500,000 Euros? What's that? Oh, you need my bank account info? Why? Oh, to wire the money? That makes perfect sense!! And it's nice to read that note at the bottom that claims the money is free from laund... Continue reading ...

You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.Ahhh, time for another Not Me Monday post!I am NOT currently watching Teen Wolf 2. That would be ridiculous. I have so not gotten completely addicted to the community forums at Etsy. I do not post there nonstop at night when I'm NOT up way too late. It was certainly NOT ME that went against everything I've tried to teach my son ab... Continue reading ...
As much as I'd love to get deep and wax philosophical on the beginnings of America and patriotic duties...I'd like more to just remind everyone that no matter your political affiliations, religious convictions, social status or lack of those...remember who is responsible for you to be FREE to have those beliefs, opinions and labels. Yes, the men who wrote the Declaration of Independence should be remembered, but I'm talking about the men and women who still to this day fight for our freedoms.... Continue reading ...
