It’s the final countdown! A week from now I’ll be singing, “Schools out…for the summer!” Some of you lucky dogs are already on summer vacation, or maybe not so lucky? We still have a week left of school and then it’s only two more weeks until it’s officially summer time. I’m so excited because we [...]
For the last couple of weeks I’ve been seeing a lot of other bloggers make summer bucket lists. Considering we have two and a half LONG months of nothing really planned (except a week long vacation), I thought it would be a good idea for us to do too. Of course I don’t think we’ll [...]
This past weekend was a three day weekend for us, thanks to Memorial Day. What better way to celebrate, then with wonderful friends, remembering loved ones, and delicious food. Our weekend started out indoors, mostly because of the weather. It had also been over a week since we last went grocery shopping, so we were [...]
About four months ago (maybe longer, I can’t remember) my husband asked me to stop buying soda for him. That was one of the best things he’s ever asked me to do, and something I thought he’d never give up. Me personally, I quit soda over a year ago and don’t regret it one bit. [...]
With the temps in the 80′s this week, you’d think it was already summer here. Did you hear that yesterday Seattle was the hottest city in the county? Crazy right?! I wanted to share a super easy dessert recipe with you guys that is incredibly simple to make, and makes a great compliment to any [...]
I haven’t had coffee in over two weeks, TWO WEEKS! That’s the longest I’ve gone since before having kids. Thankfully the diet I’m on ends on Mother’s Day, and I can not wait to have a hot cup of coffee with my Mother’s Day breakfast. Even though I haven’t had coffee in weeks, my husband [...]
May is a busy month for us this year. There is Mother’s Day, like usual, but then there’s also Teacher Appreciation Day (which we’ve done in the past), and our friends are due with their second child. Why not make it easier on myself than to just find a gift for all three occasions at [...]
Breakfast is our family’s favorite meal, without a doubt. But, during the week I just don’t have the time to make a hot breakfast. That leaves the kids with a few different choices, like frozen waffles and yogurt, oatmeal, or cereal. Must days they pick cereal, which works just fine with me. They have a [...]
If you missed Tuesday’s post, I shared some free or inexpensive ways to have date nights with your spouse. One of the easiest ways for us to have a date night, is a movie night at home. I’d say we tend to watch at least one movie a week, at home. To go see a movie requires a babysitter [...]
I try to stick vegetables and fruits in front of my girls as often as I can, but most often than not they would much rather have crackers, chips, and other similar snacks instead. Since we’re on-the-go often, I usually keep a few different kid friendly snacks on hand that we can take with us [...]
I love my children, I really do. But after a long day of feeding, changing, teaching, playing, and cleaning, I very much look forward to their bedtime. Once the kids get locked up in their rooms go to bed, it becomes “me” time. By then the house is as picked up as it’s going to [...]
