Good morning! Has this week flown by for you like it has me? Before children, it felt like forever to get to the end of a work week. After children, I swear I just blink and the week is over. Maybe it’s just because I want to pause my life right now and savor every [...]

It’s always fun when UPS comes to your door with something unexpected but it’s really a treat when you get a package from Harvard Sweet Boutique. My UPS driver came on the perfect day too: one when I was craving sweets but had nothing in the house besides my kids’ fruit snacks (which would never [...]

This year we have been lucky enough to attend Disney on Ice, Yo [...]

It’s Arrived! Our new edition: the La-Z-Boy sleeper sofa!

One of the conditions my husband set when we built our home was that he *HAD* to have a finished basement to house his man-cave. I was fine with that because I envisioned the other half two-thirds of the basement as a playroom for the kids. The basement has been wonderful for our family, however [...]

Jackson is still dancing, 4 hours after the show ended. We saw Yo Gabba Gabba Live in Boston at the Orpheum Theater today and simply put: had a BLAST. As soon as the kids saw DJ Lance Rock come on stage, they were dancing in the aisles (or in Sidney’s case, in my lap). We [...]

Santa is Coming to My House {review & giveaway}

December 6, 2012 10 Comments

One of my most recent pins from Pinterest is one that lists 25 Children’s Books for Advent. The idea is that you wrap 25 children’s holiday books (they can be ones you already own) and each night your kids get to open a holiday book and the family can read it together. I don’t think [...]
