I am writing this later than usual on this beautiful Sunday morning, since this guy ↓decided he wanted to go swim laps at 6:05 a.m. this morning! We were going to go yesterday afternoon, but it was hot and we ended up just feeling lazy, so we cancelled and rescheduled for bright and early today.… Continue reading Someone crashed my early morning hours!

All good things must come to an end
….and by that, I mean the kids are coming home today. LOL. Yes, the time has come for them to return from their little trip to my parents' house. The boys are not happy about it, I could probably live without them for a couple more days 😉 … Only my parents are probably breathing… Continue reading All good things must come to an end
3 Things on a Saturday
Ah, a Saturday morning with no kids home. 😊 How relaxing. (Actually, I’m kind of exaggerating the difference- at this point, the boys rarelywake us up on a Saturday. They generally make a beeline for the living room since on Saturdays they can play video games when they wake up for a while). But still,… Continue reading 3 Things on a Saturday

Creative Play and Another COVID Holiday Weekend
Good Saturday morning and Happy Memorial Day Weekend! 😊Here we go, another holiday. This one “feels” a little more disrupted to me in some ways than the others (Easter and Mother’s Day), I think maybe because we don’t usually have majorly traditional plans on either of those holidays in our household.We don’t actually really have… Continue reading Creative Play and Another COVID Holiday Weekend
Lazy, Rainy Sunday
Ohhh, this was one of those lazy mornings that just felt so indulgent.I was up late last night – it was probably close to midnight before we finally went to sleep. We don’t have any plans today and I got a sort of “second wind” after half dozing through a movie with the kids and… Continue reading Lazy, Rainy Sunday
Weekend Recap
How was your Mother's Day? Mother's Day 2020- Ethan 11, Asher 10Mine was lovely! Really, it was such a nice day. It was rainy and cold but that really didn't bother me in the slightest. I was in the mood to just kind of lay low and have a lazy day, and that's pretty much what… Continue reading Weekend Recap
A Weekend with No Kids Activities
How was everyone's weekend??!! This was our 6th weekend home since the lock down began. We had some just gorgeous weather here in Wisconsin and I think everyone was trying to soak it up. It is going to be much cooler the rest of the week. My phone alerted me on Saturday morning that Asher's soccer game… Continue reading A Weekend with No Kids Activities
