La, la, la, la. La, la, la, la. Elmo’s World! If you’ve watched an episode of Sesame Street in the last 5 years or so, you totally have that song stuck in your head now! Sorry! But you’re going to thank me when I tell you that those lovable characters from the happiest street are [...]

Let’s have a show of hands…Who wanted to runaway with the circus when they were little? Who wants to still runaway with the circus? I’ve always been enamored by the circus. The people flying through the air, standing on the back of a horse as it gallops around the ring, the strength, the agility, the [...]

We still have two weeks before school starts around here. (I can’t believe it’s only two weeks away!) However, this week, we got a little does of what it will be like with Abbi in Kindergarten. She is took part in KinderCamp, a ‘get you ready for Kindergarten‘ day camp put on by the Outdoor Discover [...]

I knew that once the little man figured out how to make his arms/hands and legs/feet work together, there would be no stopping him. And, for the past few weeks, that’s exactly what has happened. He’s figured out how to get up on all fours and rock back and forth, launching himself forward at times. [...]

Congrats Mary B.! You are the winner of the Organizing Utility Tote! I love bags.  Not necessarily purses, although those are fun too (I typically carry a diaper bag these days in lieu of a purse).

Congrats Staci Wykes! You’re the winner of the Cars 2 prize pack! I can’t believe that almost exactly five years ago we were sitting in a theater in Alaska watching Cars with our (then) 6 month old Abbi! Since then we’ve watched that movie countless times and continue to love it each and every time! [...]

**CONGRATS TO JODI & JEN, THE WINNERS OF THIS GIVEAWAY!** I’m not sure exactly what it is, but my girls adore Shrek. You can have that ol’ Prince Charming. They would gladly take that giant green ogre every time! So, imagine my delight when I saw that Shrek and his band of fairytale friends were [...]

Have you ever wondered where the story or myth of the stork delivering babies came from? It seems like an odd little thing — a big white bird delivering babies. It seems there are a few different versions of how this little legend came about. One popular tale stems from the notion that the souls [...]

It is amazing to me how quickly this past week or so has gone by!  It’s been nearly a week since we actually brought Talon home from the hospital and so far everyone is adjusting to life with a baby in the house pretty well.  Actually, the girls have done amazingly well! They have both [...]

Wow! I can’t believe the “Ready for Baby” Virtual Baby Shower has come to a close and, at the same time, I’m excited because that means I get to announce some winners!!! I was slightly hoping that this post would be delayed because I would be in labor or just had the baby….but not the [...]
