Cooking with Kids: Ham and Cheese CroissantsÂ
Every Saturday that we are home lunch sneaks up on us and I’ve forgotten to plan anything. When this happens, I often think of the options of food we have leftover to be used or eaten. Imagine me standing in front of the fridge looking at my leftovers. Yesterday the kids were leaving to goContinueContinue reading “Cooking with Kids: Ham and Cheese Croissants “
Cherished Moments with One
As a mother of four, moments with only one child- to snuggle, to hold, to play with, or even just talk to-are hard to come by. And when they come, they don’t last long. All the more reason to enjoy and cherish them. I got one of these rare moments with Kate earlier today.ContinueContinue reading “Cherished Moments with One”
Twin Fun: I’ll Eat You Up, I Love You So
Clara and Kate have started to sit up by themselves much better within the last week or so. They’ve also started to interact more. This video shows a pretty good example of their very different personalities. Clara is a busy body and Kate just chills. They crack us up.
Twin Ponderings: To Match or Not To Match
One of the many twin questions I get asked is if I dress them alike. The answer: Yes, most of the time they start that way although someone may have a blowout or spit out their carrots, resulting in a wardrobe change. Here’s my reasoning, as if I really need justification of how I dressContinueContinue reading “Twin Ponderings: To Match or Not To Match”
Nursing Twins- Part 3: Nursing Two SoloÂ
Nursing twins for me by myself was a daunting thought. I tandem nurse them because I didn’t want to deal with bottles and nursing. I’m an either/or kinda gal. I also didn’t want to spend all my time with a baby attached to me. I’m just not that mother and that’s ok. But there cameContinueContinue reading “Nursing Twins- Part 3: Nursing Two Solo “
Mommy Review Monday: Dr. Browns Bottles
William was a colicky baby. For four months he cried. I hadn’t been around a lot of babies before having him. I didn’t know babies came like that. He’s lucky my siblings are my best friends or he would be an only child. I guess Anna, Clara, and Kate are lucky too,for that matter. BackContinueContinue reading “Mommy Review Monday: Dr. Browns Bottles”
Repurposing Food: Berry Shortcake Parfait
Last night I made strawberry shortcake for dessert. And when I say I made strawberry shortcake, I mean Sam’s Club bakery made fresh pound cakes, which I sliced and served with fresh sliced strawberries, raspberries, and cool whip. Ok, I know it was lazy but it was still tasty and (best of all) easy. I digress. IContinueContinue reading “Repurposing Food: Berry Shortcake Parfait”
Dance RecitalÂ
Yesterday was our first ever dance recital (of many with 3 girls in the house). I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect since Anna’s lessons have been during preschool (which is super convenient) and I’ve not been able to go to any. It was a blast though! And Anna was adorable and hadContinueContinue reading “Dance Recital “
Slow Cooker Saturday: (Not Really) Baked Beans
We had family and friends over after Anna’s dance recital tonight for burgers. I needed a side dish and I love baked beans with burgers. But I was at the recital and I didn’t feel like using the oven since it’s so hot. Sooooo…using the crockpot seemed to be the best way to get it done.ContinueContinue reading “Slow Cooker Saturday: (Not Really) Baked Beans”
