Playroom Organizing Roundup

It’s the end of the month which means it’s time to wrap up another monthly Organzing Roundup, hosted by Lara at I’m an Organizing Junkie. For the month of June, we were set to the task of organizing the playroom.
Now before I share the pictures, let me just say that my kids don’t have [...]

The NERVE!

I am so sorry! How on earth could I leave you a teaser like “poop and onions” and then have the gall to not actually write the post?? Some people, I tell ya…
Anyway, this post will actually be more about poop than onions. I was going to go into another analogy talking [...]

Mental Dump, Volume I

There are so many things going on around here that I don’t even know where to begin.
And the worst part? Even if I did know where to begin, I still can’t talk about it. And that kills me.
There’s a huge elephant in the room when it comes to my blogging, something that I [...]

100 Push Ups – Week 1 wrapup

I will make this short since I can barely control the muscles in my arms…
I did it.
It was not easy.
But I did it.
On to week two.
Note to Self: Next week, don’t post immediately after finishing push-ups.

Warms my heart

Dave: Why’s that?
Jake: So the tooth fairy will come and leave me money then I can take the money and put it in the money box at VBS (Vacation Bible School)!

100 Push Ups

So, I’ve never been able to do a “real” push up. I can eek out some “girl” pushups, but I’ve never been strong enough to do true to form, on my toes push ups.
Hopefully, all that’s about to change. I heard about the 100 Push Ups Challenge from Workout Mommy and I am [...]

The Flip Side

So I was all prepared to write a post about how frustrating it was to take Emma to the library (Jake was an angel child) and to tell you all the stuff she did while she was there. I was going to tell you how she:

threw around all the stuffed animals
knocked 5 books off [...]

Mandatory Rest Period

Hello all! Things have been a bit hectic around here and I’ve got some stuff coming up that is unavoidable so I will be taking a little bloggy break. I might be back with some small stuff, but for the most part, I’ll be out for a while.
Wish me luck and don’t miss [...]
