These are a few of my favorite things

Sunday, August 15th, 2010

The First Day of School

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

This morning we put Ellie on the bus for her first day of preschool in public school, and Killian for his first day of First Grade.  Both kids were happy and excited!  Sadly, not as excited as I was, I think… I hate to be that mom who looks forward to her kids being in [...]

Big Day!

I told the kids we’d do something special this week since they are going back to school already – so today we all got haircuts, went to Chuck E. Cheese’s (where an adult can loose their mind!), t0 Bubblecake, and then to the kids’ school’s open house.

NYC Pt 2: The Bronx Zoo

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

I loved the Bronx Zoo!  We went halfway through the week and even though I had been really enjoying the city, as soon as we entered the zoo park I felt instantly at home – trees, grass, flowers, animals… It was wonderful!  The kids had a great time, too, even though it was an exhausting [...]
