How do you know you’ve made an impact?

At this very moment, my daughter is sitting in her chair, her baby doll nursing under a nursing blanket “because she needs privacy, Mommy.” My son may be the only two year old boy in the world who walks around pretending to have a baby in his belly. He’s folded a baby doll in half …

Daddy Nakie

I was just nursing Sam, and he paused, looked at me, grinned and said “Daddy Nakie Funny.” Now that he’s talking more, he can express what he’s thinking and apparently he was remembering Saturday when Marc was getting ready for his shower while Sam and I were in the bedroom.

Shark

Yes, my son is officially a talking boy. He’s chattering more and more, and coming up with so many words that I’ve lost count. He just started yelling “shark” at Word World on the television (there’s a shark swimming about on screen). He’s officially two years old, and so much fun I can’t imagine how …

Hermit Island

Just got back from vacation – yes, that’s right, I took two children and no husband to the beach for three days. Four days, three nights. I wasn’t alone with them, my cousin Becky was camping on the same site with me, and my mother and sister were up there as well. And for the …

Yet another reason I love my husband

He fixed my vacuum cleaner. I’m a stay at home mom, with two kids under six, plus I baby sit for two more toddlers. My vacuum cleaner is my FAVORITE. I use it three or four times a day, it’s my go to appliance. I can think of no other piece of household stuff that …

Sam’s fashion sense

If you can picture an adorable little boy, with light brown hair, greyish green eyes and a huge smile, with a rainbow sun hat, topped with a princess tiara, white onesie that’s so old it’s all stretched out, blue and …

Content as could be

All is well in my world – major thunderstorm this morning, which is my FAVORITE. I love the pounding rain, the booming thunder and the flashes of lightning. We kept Jess home today, she’s just been such a wreck this weekend, actually, more like just yesterday, I think she needs a day when she can …

Grounded

Grounded my little girl tonight for the first time in her little life. She’s been having a crappy day, lots of physical aggression, and she narrowly avoided kicking me upside the head in car because she started flailing her legs and screaming about me not understanding her. So she’s off the computer all day tomorrow …

Thank goodness

Everyone is gone. It’s just me, Jessica and Samuel right now, and I’m calm and relaxed. There’s been a lot of chaos and confusion lately around here, I had Glennys over night Friday night, and then yesterday we went up to my cousin’s graduation party in Rindge. I ended up taking two of my nieces …

Can I brag?

My not even two year old WALKED all the way to Elm Park. Which is a ridiculously long walk for such a little boy – and he was so happy. Wearing a little blue one piece outfit, with his sister’s sun hat perched on his little head. He’s so big!
