My Family Loves It

Our little boy is getting so big! Last night was Ethan’s preschool graduation and he was so cute singing with his class on stage. I really didn’t think he’d sing because he told us beforehand that it was BORING and he wasn’t singing BUT he surprised us and was so funny and sang every song [...]

I heard from the Dr’s office today that the kids’ test results were all normal! No freaky spirogiros living in them! She is seeing more of this where it lasts a long time, comes and goes and the parents stay healthy. I am SOOOOOO relieved but I still can’t wait until all of them are [...]

I was so busy watching them enjoying the sun yesterday that I forgot to get pictures. They were like little dogs rolling around in the grass and laying on their sides basking in the sun, it was funny. These are some pictures of them in the early evening.

John and I are going crazy! These kids are STILL going back and forth between healthy and sick. We went to the preschool and of the year picnic yesterday and all seemed great. Last night all 3 were sick again, Ben the worst with the d-word and throw up. Its like they are active healthy [...]

Last night we threw the chickens out! Ethan checked their house to make sure it was ready (and to play in it one last time before it wasn’t poop free).

They needed some help finding the door.

It was dark but we kept an eye on them with the flashlight as they adjusted. Soon I’ll paint the [...]

I came across this wonderful story about Daniel Burd, a Canadian 16 year old that isolated bacteria that can eat a plastic bag in 3 months!  Amazing story and the logic he applied is so wonderful in its simplicity, yet no one else has done this.  Here it is in a nutshell.

It takes 1000 years [...]

I feel like we’ve been on some bad rollercoaster the last 2 WEEKS! Ethan first got sick on the 15th and the most that all 3 kids were healthy since then was a little over 2 days straight. We keep thinking the stomach thing is all gone and have 1-2 days that the kids seem [...]

I’ve been listening to a lot of podiobooks and audible books lately and find myself saying “the kids will love this…when they’re older”. Since some of our readers have older kids or are themselves young at heart I decided to post a list of some of my favorites. These are all for the [...]

Well it finally worked out for us to do an Unplugged Project again. When I first saw this week was metal I was stumped but then I thought about how the boys have been so into robots lately and how I have been saving little odds and ends that looked neat instead of throwing them [...]

I am so anxious and excited to have my 18 week ultrasound next Monday! I of course want everything to go well and see a very healthy baby but this will be my last baby and I can’t wait to find out boy or girl! With 2 boys and 1 girl already, we could either [...]
