Just another day in the ‘hood

So we are just pulling in from picking up MB from camp and me from my run. We see our neighbors out on the skateboard and so MB runs out to say hi. Not more than 10 min later we had 3 more neighbors join us and were having a regular block party play-date. There [...]

When good manners payoff

For someone who gets more email than I need on a daily basis. This week seems to be leaving me with a few email treats in my inbox. And I am loving it. As we prepare for MB’s party I have gotten a few emails asking what MB might want for her birthday. I don’t [...]

I know a lot of things

Gotta love this. I was exchanging emails with MB’s teacher today and his final note shared a little bit of my MB. I was doing kinder assessments with MB and I complimented her on her correct answers to the questions and MB said, “I know a lot of things.” That sums our girl up. In the lead [...]

Learning to Tie your shoes

Ok so does anyone have any tips on teaching kids on tying shoes? We are working on it. We have a book and keep practicing, though probably not enough…but she just gets so frustrated. We have done the bunny ears, and through the hole– but her little fingers just keep getting stuck when it comes [...]

Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall

How cute is this. Last night we are getting ready for bed and MB is cleaning up her room. I hear her singing softly “Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall” I stop her and say what are you singing. She smiles and sings a little louder: Winter, Spring, summer or fall All you got to do [...]

Sometimes going away is a good thing

I hate leaving my family. No matter what fun might lie ahead I always miss them. You might have a night or a part of time when you enjoy being a girl on the town, but at the end of the night it is always so much better to be under your own roof when [...]

Making the bed like a princess

So today I went in to help MB make her bed. Part of her daily chores that I must say she is doing really well without much pushing. As I went to help her she yelled at me to stop. I was a little taken back till she informed me that I wasn’t doing it [...]

Wow I feel like a "Mother" now

This past weekend I was attending a birthday party of a 1-year-old. It was a friend of a friend I was visiting. It was a great low-key party with some great people. The birthday boy was sitting in his high chair and enjoying some pieces of hamburger. Mom is in the kitchen making sure all [...]

Someone is turning 6 soon!

Let the party planning begin. I can’t help but share the cutest invites ever. I worked with Chickabug on the custom design and she rocks as usual! We are doing a daytime slumber/spa party and it is the funniest party I have ever planned. We are doing orange, MB’s favorite color with pink as well [...]

Going to the nursery

I keep laughing at MB. She doesn’t find it amusing. It started when she got off the bus and had lost her first tooth. She told me she had to go to the nursery when her tooth was about to fall out. I waited a minute and said oh you mean the Nurse’s office. Yea, [...]
