Summer fun!

Wednesday, June 8th, 2011

Well, so far summer has been kind of fun… I’ve had lots of fun stuff planned, but the kids had to test limits for a couple days so we didn’t get to do as much as I’d wanted to this week.  We also had a wonderful time going to my 10 year college reunion last [...]

The summer of losing teeth

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

Ellie lost her first tooth this week, Killian lost his 3rd tooth.  They both have other loose teeth and I really hate loose teeth! They creep me out a lot.

Preparing for summer vacation

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

I spent all day thinking about how much fun this summer will be – the resource center will be open by appointment only so I won’t be working much at all and so I get to be a full-time-stay-at-home-mama again. Then, the kids came home and it was one tantrum after another all night. [...]

The National Zoo

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

We flew in and out of Washington, DC and I scored us a room at a very nice hotel just a few blocks away from the National Zoo.  Having worked at the KC Zoo, I really love visiting different zoos and I hadn’t been to the National Zoo since I was in elementary school.  It [...]

Back from Cancun!

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

We had a wonderful trip! The pictures are on Photogrove on Flickr.
The resort (Gran Melia Cancun) was lovely and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!  My and David’s favorite part was the private Bali Bed/tiki hut on the beach, it was heavenly!

The view from it was amazing:

The kids loved the pools and the beach:
