Looky what I found . . .
. . . over at The Common Room. Sign in to mine, then get one of your own!
I got it to work in my sidebar. It’s right under Hoops and Yoyo (aren’t those guys cute?!). Please sign in there? I’d like to see where you all are from!
Also, please leave a comment […]Baby carriers — decisions, decisions!
It’s only been 3 1/2 years since my little guy was a baby and STILL there are so many cool new things! Or at least things I wasn’t into then. When the girls were babies, we were model Growing Kids God’s Way parents, with the whole “attached parenting is evil” stigma intact. With Monkey Boy, […]
Cravings
So far:
Jello (the only sweet)
Garlic-stuffed olives
Buffalo wings (or anything else with Buffalo sauce on it)
Frank’s Hot Sauce (or Kroger equivalent) on EVERYTHING!
Taco Bell (wait, that isn’t just because I’m pregnant, I always crave that)
The wierdest thing — I absolutely do not care one whit whether I eat chocolate or not. I can totally take or […]Question
Is it weird or wrong to take a werewolf/vampire novel to church to read in your off time from Vacation Bible School snacks? Yeah, ’cause I’m going to.
More contests!
Yep, the gurus of contests, 5 Minutes for Mom, are having a 4th of July contest.
The first prize up so far: Krups Ice Cream Maker and Rosanna Sweet Dreams bowls. Yum!!! Stay tuned, I’ll post more of their contests as I catch them!

small hurts to heal,
small disappointments, too,
as real
as ours;
small glories
to discover
in bugs,
pebbles,
flowers.
When day is through
my mind is small,
my strength […]Things you never thought you’d say, continued . . .
Oh, my gosh, today was a good one.
“Son, what are you doing with a kaleidoscope in your pants?”Tackle-it Tuesday (and Wednesday)
UPDATE: Reprieve! After tackling the dining room all morning — boy does it look good! — Squid decided that there is just too much to do. We really should put the new sink in the bathroom and there’s lots of yardwork to do as well. Anyway, it’s postponed until the 19th, so LOTS of time […]
Another 5 Minutes for Mom Give-away!
5 Minutes for Mom is giving away a belly band from Baby Be Mine. Even if you’re not pregnant, you can get in on the contest and give it to a preggo friend! It’s the perfect pregnancy gift — as 5MfM says, it can cover your pre-pregnancy unbuttoned waistband, cover that little stretch that your […]
