Things I have learned getting older while raising small children 1. Once you hit 30, you start loosing count… ie when I heard Brittany Spears was 30 now I said, “I didn’t realize we were the same age” we’re not. 2. Despite what you “thought” a 4 year age difference is not a big enough …
We went to Greer for the 4th of July weekend. We invited some good friends of ours and their kids and we had such a wonderful time! Greer did have some devastation, but it is far more green than not. I will upload to flickr, it is easier that way.My parents had bought the only …
Monday morning I woke up to Andi in our bed, I asked her “did you pee” “yup” she replied. Ugh knowing that I now had to wash her sheets, the same sheet I just had washed the day before because Elmer the Guinea Pig pooped on them. Then I hear Oli whining a groggy whine, …
We use the expression “he’s the third” in jest all the time. Like when he is on his 8th otterpop in an hour, “he’s the third”, when he shows up to a restaurant in a bright orange Halloween shirt that blinks (two sizes too big), camo shorts and boat shoes we say “he’s the third” …
Andrew has been out of town since Wednesday, I joked to him on the phone “you haven’t been gone this long since I kicked you out” I paused and he laughed. Sometimes my jokes are “too soon” but he laughed. It sucks when your hubby is gone, and you don’t want him to be. He’s …
I’ve written this thing over and over again. I can never get it right, I leave it hanging in the middle, never satisfied, never finished. Talking about something so personal is scary. Except for my belief in God, I rarely get much judgment on my parenting of Lily. But this is different. I think I’d …
I have no idea what my problem is lately. Getting online and updating is just not happening. I have written, yet not posted.On Thursday I took Lily and Oli to neuro to bump up her VNS setting. That went well, we were told who our new neuro is. I am happy with the change, we’ve …
I knew in April we’d have one good-bye to say in May. What I didn’t know is we’d have 4 good-byes in May.Yes I am still working on “The Story of Us” I’ve spent hours on it and still am not finished. Will share later.But back to May good-byes.Two caregivers whom we really loved left …
Crap! I am so behind! Yesterday it dawned on me that I have a blog and when was the last time I wrote on it? So not like me to be so darn behind. The funny thing is there is a post in my head that I want to write. I go over it and …
Lil Bill is back to normal! She is rolling around and seems to be feeling well. Poops still aren’t quite on track, but we’re getting there. She has though been waking, oh did I say waking, I mean SCREAMING bloody murder every moring at 5:30am on the dot. We go in her room and nothing …
