Not Me Monday
This blog carnival was started by MckMama. Check out her blog for more Not Me Monday fun!So, how was our weekend? Well, it was quiet. It was uneventful. It was relaxing. It was filled with the noises of brother and sister loving each other and playing peacefully. NOT! I certainly did not have to tell the kids one zillion times to stop fighting. I did not almost lose my mind from the constant screaming. TRex has not become quite annoyed with Snappy. Snappy has not decided that everything must ... 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 ...

Because we all have pictures worth more than that.
Check out The Mom Jen for more ATWT fun! Do you have an ATWT to share? Leave a comment with a link!I've been surfing through tons of old photos for my ATWT posts. So much fun! I came across this. Hubby and I were messing with the camera one night a couple of years ago and this happened...I've always thought it was pretty cool. I think it tells a story. We've been meaning to try and do this again. Continue reading ...

Not Me Monday
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 ...

On Thursday I post pictures that, to me, are worth more than "a thousand words" For more fun with ATWT, check out The Mom Jen!This picture was taken a few years ago by my talented hubby. 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! Continue reading ...
A Thousand Words Thursday...
Posted by Robin Haws on Thursday, June 18, 2009,
So, The Mom Jen over at Cheaper Than Therapy started this. I found it on one of my fave blogs, Two of a Kind, Working on a Full House. The premise is simple. "to post a picture that is powerful, that expresses emotion, and speaks volumes to me." We have so many pics that I love to share so I know this will be easy and fun!
Here's my first "Thousand Words" pic...
So, I know this pic is a little old (from Easter) but a moment of Snappy and TRex NOT fighting is to me worth more than anything!

Hey everyone!
So, I've been off the grid for about a week, dealing with some family stuff. I'm ba-ack! So glad to be back at home and back to work! Man have I got a lot to do!!
We did sneak in a little fun in the past few days. We attended a wedding (Congrats Jamey and Amanda!), saw some family, and managed to be in the car an awful lot with zero nervous breakdowns! (moms on roadtrips can feel my pain!)
We've had a busy couple of weeks. The kids met yet another new cousin...
