  • Our Weekend House Guest

    published: 1/29/2010 1:00:00 AM

        Molly is spending the weekend with us. Molly is a hamster and she is the class pet in Ally’s Pre-K. As star student of the week, Ally gets to bring home the hamster for the weekend (and she is SO excited and has been counting the days until Molly arrives).

        I am not a pet person. We didn’t grow up with pets in the home (except for birds). I have allergies to both dogs and ...

  • Happy Half Birthday to You!

    published: 1/22/2010 1:00:00 AM

        Now I enjoy a good birthday celebration and think that one’s birth is certainly a cause to party, however, we are now celebrating half birthdays in our house for which I am not overly excited about. The reason? Because I gave birth to a child in the summer months, when school is not in session. So in order for her to celebrate her birthday at school with her friends, we have to do it on ...

I’ve missed having ...

  • Teeth Troubles

    published: 1/8/2010 1:00:00 AM

        Over winter break we entered the world of orthodontia. Tori received a palate separator. My thinking was that by getting it over the break she would have time to adjust to it and not be so uncomfortable and self conscious once school was back in session. And with the snow days, she's had extra time to adjust!

        She has inherited my small, crowded mouth and has several years of orthodontic work in front of her. I had ...

  • Happy 2010!

    published: 1/1/2010 1:00:00 AM

        Happy New Year! How did you spend New Year's Eve? We get together with friends who have children and have fun eating, playing games, watching movies and ringing in the new year. For the last few years, I've been able to pull off celebrating midnight around 9:00 in the evening and then am able to get the girls together at a decent hour. I don't think I'll be able to get away with it much ...
