We will soon be embarking on a road trip to Branson. Google maps tells us it will take 7 hours and 51 minutes. We will have a few stops with the kiddos, so we are estimating 10 hours. Ten hours in the car with a 7 and 5 year old, plus 9 month old twins.ContinueContinue reading “Road Tripping with a Real Map”

8 Things that Helped Me Survive a Twin Pregnancy
I survived a twin pregnancy. I should really say that I thrived since I was so very fortunate to not have any complications like so many mothers of multiples do. Even with no complications, carrying two full-term is hard – harder than my previous pregnancies by a long shot. But there are ways to make itContinueContinue reading “8 Things that Helped Me Survive a Twin Pregnancy “
Mommy Review Monday: Happy Healthy Parent Waterproof Silicone Bib
With my first two kids, I used Bumkins bibs and they’re great but I decided to try some the Happy Healthy Parent waterproof silicone bibs for the twins. Here’s what I like about them: They come in a 2- pack with free shipping through Amazon Prime. The colors are cute: Clara’s is purple and Kate’s is pink. TheContinueContinue reading “Mommy Review Monday: Happy Healthy Parent Waterproof Silicone Bib”
Dinner is coming.
Garen sent this to me earlier. I sent him back a text that said, “Dinner has come.” There’s a fine line between hilarious and just flat nerdy. Obviously, the girls are enjoying their home made baby food. This was after dinner tonight. What a mess?!?
Patriotic Babies
These girls just turned 8 months a few days ago and, for our obligatory monthly photo, it seemed appropriate for them to sport their red, white and blue in honor of 4th of July. MaMa gave the girls these adorable patriotic outfits complete with matching Harlem Globetrotter headbands that she made. She even made aContinueContinue reading “Patriotic Babies”
Mommy Review Monday: Ciao! Baby Portable High Chair
My cousin, who also has twins, introduced us to these Ciao! Baby portable high chairs. I’ll be honest, at first I was skeptical because they’re about $60 and I just didn’t think it was worth that much times two. But we had two BBQs this weekend and we knew it was going to be aContinueContinue reading “Mommy Review Monday: Ciao! Baby Portable High Chair “
Water Babies
We took Clara and Kate to my cousins’ annual Fourth of July swim party today. It was their first time swimming. True to their personalities, Clara immediately loved it, kicking and splashing. Kate was reserved at first but loved it as she got used to it. Swimming with our water babies andContinueContinue reading “Water Babies “
Sammy’s First Birthday
Our friends’ little boy, Sammy, just celebrated his first birthday today. How time flies when we’re having fun! Jasmine did a great job decorating with the astronaut theme despite it being a challenge to find little kid space party supplies. It was so precious. As cute as the decor was, Sammy was even cuter! ContinueContinue reading “Sammy’s First Birthday”
Smile and the World Smiles with You
As I look at my children, I (almost) always smile. It’s not necessarily that they make me smile, although that’s true as well. I smile because I want to see them smile. Why do I want to see them smile? Subconsciously, because it makes me feel good (and because I know they’re happy, of course). I, inContinueContinue reading “Smile and the World Smiles with You”
Making Baby Food- Part 2: What and How I Made Baby Food
After our trip to the grocery store (see my previous post, Part 1: The Why and Preparation), I got started. Honestly, it hasn’t been that bad. I never expected to be the mom that makes homemade baby food but, surprisingly, I actually enjoyed it. I went into it without recipes but more of a generalContinueContinue reading “Making Baby Food- Part 2: What and How I Made Baby Food “
