I have a lot of breastmilk in the freezer right now that I don’t feel is stored very well. I wish that the Parent Bloggers Network had asked me to review this smart breastmilk storage system 2 months ago when I was basically pumping round the clock to get my milk supply back after a [...]
I have a confession to make. I am a DIY impulse buyer. When I go to Lowes to pickup supplies for my current project, I sometimes bring home things for future projects. Last year when I decided to organize my tools and supplies and I labeled one box “To Do” and through all the things [...]
Jamie is right now asking (more like begging…demanding) to hold Jillian. I’m really happy she loves her little sister but I wish she were a little more gentle so that I could actually let her hold Jillian without being right on top of her. I can set the boys up with Jillian on the bed [...]

Sledding went so well on Saturday that we went back Sunday and were joined by 2 families of friends! It was pretty windy the second trip but much less crowded and John got like a trillion smiley pictures of Ben (and the other kids too)! They all had a ball and went speeding down the [...]
Sunday started with cimmanin rolls (thats how Ben says it) and we were supposed to have “Monster Shakes” but instead I somehow overblended enough that the blender unscrewed itself and popped off. This picture doesn’t even show 1/2 the mess, the blender was FULL to the brim with bright green spinach, frozen bananas, rice milk [...]
I just discovered a fun program called Comic Life. You can edit your photos to make them look like comic books by adding speech bubbles, putting your photos in a comic grid, and applying styles to your photos to make them look like drawings. Comic Life is available for both Mac and PC for $24.95 [...]
We scored a trifecta today. The weather warmed up, we had snow on the ground, and no one was sick. Also throw in no hockey practice and we found our sleds which had been left out before the last storm. The end result is that we took the whole family to a nearby sledding hill [...]
