I let my three year old play with my phone when we’re eating out and he needs a distraction. He likes to draw or play with the calculator. Sometimes he goes online and plays on the Nick Jr. site. The other day however, he had a new trick. I got an e-mail from a friend [...]
The wildlife on post strikes again. Our first Halloween here, the squirrels and/or bunnies ate our pumpkins. I have a deep suspicion it was the squirrels. Now I got a strawberry pot. It had four plants. There was evidence of digging in the main area of the pot, and now there’s only one plant in [...]
“So easy even a three year old can use it.” While I took 30 seconds to myself to go pee the other day, Aaron took it upon himself to make himself a cup of tea. He took out the used Kcup that was in the machine from the last person to use it, threw it [...]
Z: “Mom, how old are you?”Me: “I”m 29 for about another month, why?”Z: “Some of the other kids don’t believe me when I tell them that.”Me: “What kids?”Z: “The boy next door. He says you’re 40′s or 50′s like his parents.”Me: “Zach, I’ve told you he’s a little jerkface that you don’t need to be [...]
I always hesitate to purchase the packages from LifeTouch that the school offers. Their photographers seem to have always missed photography 101. In Kindergarten my son had art class before pictures and they had his whole shirt in the picture complete with white paint. In the first grade Spring pictures they used too much of [...]
Last night we went to Jigsy’s for pizza per our usual Wednesday routine. The dessert on the buffet was brownies with walnuts. After finishing dinner, I went and got one for myself and a small one for Aaron. He didn’t want it, so I asked Zach if he’d like it while waiting for more white [...]
We were all getting some snacks one afternoon over the weekend when my 2 year old requested cookies. OK. So we got him a cookie. No, that’s not what he wanted. So we got him one of the other kind of cookies we had, and he didn’t want that either. Frustrated, I finally told him [...]
The words escape me. This was a roadside stand we saw on the way home from Hershey last weekend. My husband didn’t blow through the yellow light just so I could get a picture.
I have to preface this by saying I’ve seen a lot of redneck things in my day. Some of my family comes from an area of the country known for its hillbillies. Evidently PA has become just like living in some of the places I’ve seen in the deep south and Appalachia. This would probably [...]
Zach started swim lessons this week, and Aaron had to wear Zach’s goggle around the house.
