It’s spring break in Michigan! Which means pretty much nothing because1) it’s Michigan and there are no leaves on the trees or flowers growing and2) the only one in our household who gets spring break is the 7-year-old! I told Will that we had a special play date planned for Friday with some boys he [Read More]
Disney Princesses 2011
We are just back from a trip to DisneyWorld and had a great time! The kids didn’t want to leave. While we were there, Sydney got a princess makeover at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. She talked about it for weeks before we went. It was funny how serious she was in the chair while getting [Read More]
I’m lovin’ it?
“Welcome to McDonald’s. Go ahead and place your order when you’re ready.” “Yes, I’ll have a chicken nugget Happy Meal, no sauce, with french fries, chocolate milk, and a boy toy,” I replied. Geesh, I thought. I ordered Will fries, but he wanted the apple dippers. I’ll just order the apple dippers with Sydney’s Happy [Read More]
Happy Birthday to Me
This past weekend was my birthday. My kids, ages 7 and 4, presented me with a birthday card which they selected themselves. Here is a picture: I’m so proud!
Snack Attack
Children of good moms ask for snack in this way: “May I please have a snack? Why, yes, Goldfish in a small bowl sounds delightful.” My kids ask for snack like this, as demonstrated recently by Sydney, 3: “I want Goldfish in a box. The whole box. And I’m not sharing.” Sydney, 1, started her [Read More]
Girl Talk
This morning Sydney and I were getting dressed for the day in my room. “This. shirt. can’t. fit. over. my. big. head!” she said as she struggled to pull a Tinkerbell shirt over her head. Then she got silly. “Shirty shirt. Pants pants. Poophole. Poophole. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!” “Sydney,” I said sternly [Read More]
Books for Sydney
Sydney and I were at the library. I started giggling to myself when I realized how BAD I am. Often she pulls out a book from the shelf and tells me she wants it. Of course, she takes about a half-second before she moves on and pulls out another book that she must have. Meanwhile, [Read More]
Share and Share Alike
Sydney and I were snacking on some Chex Mix. We like the Traditional kind, not the Cheddar or anything spicy. Just so you know. At one point I was holding the bag and Sydney asked for some. “No,” I said, teasing. She got mad! “You have to share,” she declared. “It’s not like you’re Dad [Read More]
Bratz and Hoochies
Sydney was watching TV while I was getting dinner ready. She saw a commercial for the Bratz dolls. “I want that!” “No,” I replied. “First of all, remember we’ve been having this conversation about how you can’t have everything you see on TV?” “I know,” she whined. “That’s why I want them for Christmas.” Not [Read More]
God’s Wand
Today’s story is sweet, in my opinion. So how does that work into my overall blog theme of me being a bad mom? Let’s just say I’m now one of those annoying mothers who thinks everything her child does is wonderful and tells everyone about it, whether or not they want to listen! Sydney, 3 [Read More]
