Ballerinas, Meltdowns, and a Little Lesson in Stress Management

By The Boss ⋅ May 18, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Friday night, Ben came home from work a little early so we could all go to Aidan’s rehearsal for her Ballet Recital. We got there on time, got dressed, and waited patiently for her turn to practice. The whole thing went off without any problems. She did her whole dance WITHOUT me behind the curtain. [...]

Then there was Saturday

By The Boss ⋅ May 12, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Saturday morning I got up early to go to a yard sale (or tag sale) that was going to be made up of 20 FAMILIES. I was super excited about this. Then of course I was super let down when I got there. Anytime an AD in the paper says, HUGE yard sale or anything [...]

Fab Friday

Friday, I was DYING to get out of the house. I called my brother-in-law and tricked him into coming over with his kids to watch mine, by trick I mean, I asked him. He’s real easy. Then I called my husband and told him that I WOULD LOVE TO GO OUT ON A DATE, and [...]

The Pizza Guy

By The Boss ⋅ May 9, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

A while back, we ordered pizza one night for dinner. Andrew LOVES pizza. He was so excited when the pizza guy came to the door, that he ran right out of the house and wrapped his arms around the pizza guys leg, and followed up with a “TANK YOU!” Then he quickly scurried to the [...]

I never know what to expect these days when I go for my check-ups. My mom came up today and took me, along with the kids, to see my midwife. The kids and mom played in the family room while I had my appointment. The family room is a fun room full of toys and [...]

Milk Money

By The Boss ⋅ May 7, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

The kids are always coming up to us and saying things like, “I WANT to watch a movie!” OR “I WANT to go outside!” That “want” word makes me want to scream  sometimes. Last night, Andrew came up to me and said, “Mommy! I WANT some milk!” So I shot back with, ” I WANT [...]

Once Again

By The Boss ⋅ May 6, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

I don’t know where yet, but it seems we will be moving. I do know one thing, if I have any say in the situation it will be soon. I want to be settled before the baby comes. I’m off to pack.

Time Flys

On Thursday, I will be 6 months pregnant. I cannot believe that the baby will be here in about 3 months! We all have colds, I am super emotional, and I just want to crawl back in bed and go to sleep.

Friday Morning Ramblings

By The Boss ⋅ May 2, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Yesterday was a hard day. We were all dressed, about to go out the door to run some much needed errands, when Aidan puked all over the floor. If you read my blog last week, you’ll remember that I got in the car on Tuesday, and a belt broke. I never made it out of [...]
