This blog post could probably be the longest one yet - but I'll do my very best to keep it as short as possible. What can I say about 2010? It had it's ups and downs like any other year. I learned a lot. I changed a little and watched my kids grow more and more every day. This is the perfect time...
I have made only 1 resolution...it's a big one, though. We are going to get healthier financially. We are going to make a BUDGET (a real one) and stick to it. That is going to require some sacrifices and some creativity on our part. I'm willing to do it, though...because I have an ultimate goal of getting into a bigger house and having more room....
Holidays 2010
It is the day after the day after Christmas - and the toys are still all over the floor
I'm pretty sure that my house still has a floor - but I haven't seen it in 2 days. I'd take a picture, but I'm afraid the fire marshal will show up and declare it a fire hazard to have so much "stuff" all over the place. Seriously, my children have more toys than the local Kmart. Anyway, so...how was your Christmas? Did...
It's Christmas Eve. My children have already started to get excited. Eh ~ who am I kidding? They were excited a month ago! They aren't looking forward to saying goodbye to Tinsel and Holly but I think the presents from the "big guy" will help to smooth that over a bit. Speaking of the "big guy"...he went WAY overboard this year. He usually...
We are quickly approaching the day when Santa will be by to pick up Tinsel and Holly. Thank goodness he will also be leaving some presents because my kiddos are gonna miss those elves! Every morning since they arrived I have heard, "Let's go see what the elves did last night!" before my eyes even open! :) Here's what they have been up...
This has been (and continues to be) one of the worst weeks of my life so far. I'm overflowing with Mommy Guilt and feeling really really helpless. I'm also almost out of patience and just about ready to call it quits. Isn't it funny how God knows exactly how far you can go sometimes? I think He gave Jerry and I about all...
Wanna see what Tinsel and Holly were up to this week? Here's our week in review! Saturday: They baked cookies because they really missed Nate and Danika while they were at Grammie and Nunnu's on Friday night Sunday: They built a tall tower to get to the outlet They were trying to plug in a really cool snowman night light that projects a...
I have the "Bluey Blues", as they say in Wuzzleburg. (If you have no idea what I'm talking about then you obviously don't watch TV with small children on a regular basis) I'm not really sure what the heck is going on but I just didn't feel like talking much once I got home yesterday. It might have been something someone said because there...
So...on Cyber Monday I was doing some online shopping and took a break to read some blogs. I came across a blog that I usually read that was advertising a special for the Grocery University program. The Cyber Monday deal was a great savings. You paid $9.00 for something that was normally $24 something. I had just started using the Grocery Game website...
Here's what our elves, Tinsel and Holly, were up to this week On Monday, they recycled my Sunday paper by making paper boats! On Tuesday, they made a chain out of paper with the numbers 1 through 25 written on them - one for each day until Christmas! On Wednesday, they wrote on our bathroom mirror and had special ornaments for Nate and...
