Monday, August 18th, 2008What I didn’t mention before is that we have been out of town since August 8th. Last week’s posts were scheduled before we left and I didn’t get a chance to read them until a little while ago.
So, thank you all for wonderful comments especially those on the anniversary of my grandma’s death. [...]

A Sad Day
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008My Oma died 6 years ago today. She was 89 years old. I along with LushMan and the rest of my family (mom, dad, sister & her family) was with her when she passed away. I was 6 weeks pregnant with TheOldest when she died and now my daughter bears her name [...]
This place is a zoo
Monday, August 11th, 2008We took the girls to the zoo one day recently.
TheYoungest looked adorable in her bonnet. We had many people asking us where we got it.
The Butterly tent was a lot of fun. It was the first time we went through it even though we’ve had a zoo membership for a few years. The oldest two [...]

“Mamma mia, here I go again”
Monday, July 28th, 2008I know I’ve said recently that I have been ridiculously sick this year- well, probably since having my third. And while I can say I’m not “sick” in the true definition of the word, I’m more injured this time around.
Two weeks ago this coming Friday, I fell in my garden. TheMiddleChild decided right [...]
Out of the Mouth of Babes
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008TheMiddleChild: “Mom, the garbage man left us garbage today!” after noticing our trash outside waiting to be picked up.
Caught
Thursday, June 19th, 2008We keep the kids’ plates, cups, and bowls at their level so they can set the table or get themselves a drink. (The plates and stuff are from Ikea by the way. They are made with the safe plastic and are adorable.)
The other day, TheYoungest figured out how to open the drawer. [...]
Happy Belated Birthday, My MiddleChild
Monday, June 2nd, 2008In true Middle Child form, I’m a couple weeks late blogging about TheMiddleChild’s birthday. She turned 4 on May 18th.
Following what I did with TheOldest’s birthday, here is her birth story.
First, just a little history about the birth of TheOldest. You can read the whole thing in my April 1st entry. I had [...]
I’m going to try to play catch-up
Monday, May 19th, 2008But there are no guarantees- it seems as if as soon as my life calms down, another tornado comes barreling through and everything gets all topsy turvy again. I’ll take this calm before the storm and try to get things settled again.
My mom is home from the hospital. She came home late Saturday night after [...]
