We made it through shopping, wrapping & performances. We made through Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We even made it through Christmas at my mom’s the day after. However, at about 4:45am on Bill’s birthday (the 27th), labor pains started and did not go away. We got to the hospital around 7 and at 1:14pm, [...]

Christmas Kittens
If you are looking for THE gift for your kids or know someone who is, we’ve got them and they’re free. They are very kid-tolerant, litter trained, and lots of fun. They are three months old now, so they’re more like teen kits, but still pass for kittens. We have four – three girls and [...]

Let it snow
I decided to change my template to something more festive for a few weeks. It’s probably the only snow we’ll see I pray we have one great snowfall this year so the kids can play outside in it. The last one we had, Katelyn was the only one who was really old enough to remember it. [...]

Great gift for toddlers
Let me start by saying that I don’t advocate parking kids in front of the TV as a babysitter on a regular basis. However, when you have an active toddler and you get to that part of the day around 4 or 5 when naptime is a distant memory and bedtime is a ways away, [...]
