Mommy + Daughter Getaway

No Comments 30 August 2010

I was so thrilled to take my two daughters on a getaway to Sanibel, FL a week after I returned home from Africa. I missed them so much and it was a great way to reconnect, especially with my teenager. I will admit, going to Sanibel in late August was not the smartest coolest thing [...]

Daddy On Diaper Duty- just for laughs

No Comments 17 August 2010

Actor and Comedian Jay Mohr shares his own real-life potty-training tale that’s pee-in-your-pants funny!! When my son, Jackie, first came home from the hospital, I was promptly sent out to buy diapers. So off I went. I quickly realized that I didn’t have a clue where to find them or how they were sold. Did [...]

Crazy Guest Blogger #4 – The Queen of Freeze {Recipes}

8 Comments 21 July 2010

Hi! I’m Beth, a SAHM (stay at home mom) who enjoys cooking dinner, but not when my toddler is whining to be held, my preschooler is crying over a boo boo and my 6 year old is telling me a stuffed animal is taking an impromptu merry-go-round ride on his ceiling fan. To remedy this situation, [...]

My 799th episode of Finding Nemo

5 Comments 17 June 2010

I have the joy of riding around town with a 2 year old, 13 yo and 16 yo. The majority of the time Zoie and I are together zipping from Target to the park, but there is only one thing you’ll find playing in my van. I just hit my 799th episode of Finding Nemo!! [...]

Crazy Happy Momma

2 Comments 10 May 2010

I was giddy waking up and thinking “It’s Mother’s Day today!” I couldn’t wait to see what Rog the kids had planned for me! The night before, we howled through the crazy TV show ‘The Middle’ and the last scene when Frankie sighs in exhaustion, “I don’t ever want to do that again.” The house [...]

1 Comment 12 April 2010

I love reminding Hannah that she is a walking miracle. At 13, she only rolls her eyes half way around when I hug her tight and whisper how much I love her being my daughter. We almost lost our beautiful girl when she was born 26 weeks premature. Now, when I look at her pictures [...]

Date Night

1 Comment 09 April 2010

I love date night with my hubby, but we have noticed since bringing home Zoie, we go out as a threesome most of the time. We took the advice on bonding with Zoie seriously and now that she is stuck to us like glue, we know it’s time to bring back our romantic rendezvous of [...]

Mommy vs. Wild

1 Comment 08 April 2010

I think being a mom is one of the wildest adventures we can explore. There are no maps, guides, or compasses to help us through the craziness of mommyhood. It reminds me a little of the TV show Man vs Wild. Bear gets dropped into the wilderness and has a few matches, a knife, and a string to survive. There are dangers at every turn and I cringe [...]
