There’s a new carnival in town: a bloggy carnival. And, you’re invited to join. In fact, I URGE you to. I even have a nifty button for you if you participate - feel free to steal it:
So, get ready. This Thursday, July 3, 2008 - I invite everyone to post a blog [...]
This weekend has rocked so far. Tried sushi. Found a hat for $6 that I REALLY wanted. Moved trash and (flattened and moved) about 70 boxes to the trash place (out of the garage). Ate supper and visited with my parents. And, today? I’m washing some clothes and towels and Steven is mowing…hooray…our jungle-yard will [...]
A friend of mine asked me to write a guest blog post for her blog. And, so I did. So, here’s to MissSmartyPants at A Whole Lot of Nothing, CLICK HERE.
I was curled up on the couch today - in pain. Yet, I was happy. Want to know why? No, you really don’t…but I’m going to tell you anyways. Because my friends, my last cycle just ended. A 23 day cycle. You see, for what seems like FOREVER, I have been having 45-55 day cycles [...]
Before L was born, Steven and I enjoyed an activity called geocaching - an activity in which you use a GPS system to find caches, or mini- treasures, located at specific waypoints across the globe.

…While trying to put her [...]
A few of years ago, I learned about this cool thing called geocaching - which is like hunting for treasure using a GPS (with a “take something, leave something” rule). And, my FIL and all of his coolness GAVE me a GPS. Yes, he rocks. Anyhow, I fell in love with geocaching, and until yesterday [...]
Babywearing is a constant theme in nature: Kangaroos, Gorillas, Koala Bears - and even some human cultures. In addition to the obvious freeing up of hands that is involved with babywearing, wearing your little one has many other advantages as well. According to Hunziker and Barr in their article in Pediatrics, babies who are carried [...]
Summer is here - and so are long road-trips, sports games, camping, and boating - all of which can put a damper in pottying, whether trained or not. There are a lot of options out there for mini potties, and even training potties, but most make it hard to travel with and stow discreetly when [...]
Here’s your warning: If the thought of theology sends you gagging to the nearest trash can, by all means, bring the trash can over. I kid I kid. I feel inspired to write. And, I don’t want to censor myself…but I hope I don’t lose anyone in the process. Please know this isn’t a “homecoming” [...]
