The Real Reason Toddlers Have Tantrums
My 3-year-old is going through some intense development right now, and the resulting tantrums are quite impressive. I am lucky they are short-lived because the decibel level of the screams could possibly cause some eardrum issues. If I have any future hearing loss, I'll be telling my son he did this to me as a … Continue reading The Real Reason Toddlers Have Tantrums

This week was all weird due to the holiday on Wednesday. It's felt like the weekend all week long!

Celebrating MY Independence – A Daycare Story
I'm interrupting my regularly scheduled funny little stories to confess I totally broke down and cried several times last week and I've just had it. This stay-at-home-mom is waving the white flag. I had tears streaming down my face and ear-piercing screams in the background as I typed "childcare" into the search engine over the weekend. … Continue reading Celebrating MY Independence – A Daycare Story

My Week in Review – Local Beans, Free Bowling, Pavers and a Magic Wand
This week I stumbled across a local bean roaster right here in Jax Beach, set the first paver stone down in my new front patio, learned (sort of) how to use a curling wand and introduced my son to the wonders of the bowling alley. My week in review 6/17 -6/23 Psst...you got the beans? … Continue reading My Week in Review – Local Beans, Free Bowling, Pavers and a Magic Wand
You’re the Reason We Can’t Have Nice Things
I have a fancy new white couch and a toddler. WTF was I thinking??? I also chose white cabinets for our kitchen remodel. I've obviously lost my mind. I spend wayyy too much time wiping hand, feet and God knows what else kind of prints off everything from the couch to the light blue colored … Continue reading You’re the Reason We Can’t Have Nice Things
We’ve Become Those People
My husband and I used to go out to dinner a lot. We would usually sit at the bar and spend several hours drinking wine and eating appetizers for meals. We rarely sat at a table and would just enjoy the experience of sampling food and drinks. Now no more bar for us- we need … Continue reading We’ve Become Those People
