Zoe, My 2-Year-Old Problem Solver!

Zoe is my 2 year old genius baby. She’s too smart for my own good… and tonight, she proved this even further than she previously has. She brought me her empty Sonic cup and pointed to my route 44 sweet tea — then pointed back to her empty cup. Zoe is a pointer. She uses that little index finger to say what her mouth …

Out of the Mouths of MY Babies

Lately, Zoe (who JUST turned 2 on June 27th) has been taking off her diaper when she “goes” in it. Even if it’s just a TEENY bit wet, she takes it off, throws it away, and comes to me with a new diaper gesturing that I should put it on her. Yesterday evening, I noticed her just walking around — naked. Here’s how our conversation …

Zoe Turned TWO!

It’s difficult to describe the feeling I have when I just sit silently and watch my kids. Briyana is nearly midway through her first year with a double-digit age. How do I make myself understand that she will be 11 years old in seven months? I have yet to really “accept” that she is entering the 5th grade this fall. Between now and the end …

Happy Father’s Day… Happy Birthday… & a trip home :)

Wednesday, we loaded up and headed back to our hometown to take Barry’s cousin’s 6 year old daughter home who had been staying with us for almost a month. The kids had SUCH a good visit with her – I swear it was neverending playing, giggling, and messes the entire time LOL :)
During the less-than-24-hours we were in Hattiesburg, we decided to celebrate Father’s Day …

Mommy Guilt… Is Everything My Fault?

There are so many things that can go on during the course of a day when you have children. Multiply that by five and you’re in my house. Oh, and just add one for good measure since my husband’s cousin’s little girl is visiting us for the summer as well. As a mother, I’m quite possibly the one to be voted least likely to freak …

A Good, LONG Weekend {and a BAD start to my week…}

Friday, we packed up and hit the road to travel to Hattiesburg where my husband was playing in our high school’s first ever Alumni football game the following evening. It started out just like every other trip we’ve made with all five of the kids – and the dog – but when we got almost to Jackson, there was a speedbump-sized BUMP in the highway …

NOT a Wordless Wednesday Post :)

I can’t believe I missed Wordless Wednesday yesterday! I fell asleep Tuesday night without posting or scheduling it and I was busy all day yesterday so I never got around to getting it up. It is the first one I’ve missed in MONTHS! So, since I totally bombed on the meme I have been so faithfully dedicated to, I figured I would go ahead and …

Fibromyalgia and a Trip to the Park

For the last few days, I’ve been plagued more than usual with symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome which is associated with Fibromyalgia. {You can find out more about the symptoms of Fibromyalgia by clicking here} I’ve dealt with a combination of the two for nearly 18 years and on most days, I can push through it and make myself get on with what needs …
