I am a bit of a light sleeper. This has done me no good these long years with a husband who can on occasion, snore quite loudly. It has been made worse by the fact that the cats and dog also snore. Having three children has made things worse. Honestly, I can’t remember the last […]
Easter at Baby Bunch
The people that make gorgeous new baby gifts also have seasonal themes! Check out these pretty little Easter Nests… Each with three pairs of blue or pink baby socks! I am now wishing I new a bazillion expectant moms to give these little gifts to. And once again, they are being awesome and offering a […]
Signs I Have Too Many Kids…
I was quite proud of myself this morning. Got myself washed and dressed and the kids – including the baby – all set to head out, drive the hubster to work AND give myself time to hit McD’s for a fancy drive through breakie before hitting the doc’s for myself and Tara’s appointment. That went swimmingly […]
How To Feel Humbled

Spring Break at the House of Crunch
….actually hasn’t been TOO bad. TV Watching From Forts….notice the wee one! Adam is on cloud nine right now because a ‘friend’…..a GIRL ‘friend’ is over for a little visit. This was because he actually cleaned his room and hasn’t been a total TOOL today!! Caity and him even worked TOGETHER at helping each other […]
Sunshine and Unicorns…
as my kids like to say.. So Saturday was a gorgeous and sunny day. Like A lot of Loves, I was beyond giddy about the planned lunch/tweetup being that not only was my mom watching the two older kids, but my husband said he would tag along! Like Marilyn the prospect of getting out […]
Little Blogs grow into Big Blogs
I will probably be struck of the mom bloggers Christmas list because of this, but here goes…. As I lay awake in the wee small hours waiting for Tara to make up her mind if she was going to sleep or scream a little more, I was perusing the Twitter stream on my iPhone. Someone….I […]
