Twin love

I had big plans to post today about Connor's new bed that Daddy built.

Unfortunately, those pictures are still at home, on the camera.

When we moved into our house, we were on the five year plan: live here until Connor turns 5, then move to a bigger house.  Well life (and recessions) happen, and the move did not occur.  Since we were undecided for awhile, we kept Connor in his extremely slightly outgrown toddler bed.  Keith built Connor a new twin bed to match his dresser over Christmas, and it was ready this past weekend.  Of course, you won't get to see those pictures until someone gets her stuff together and uploads the camera.

Instead, you can see the twinkles showing each other some love in Connor's old bed before we took it apart:

Don't let them fool you.
They are just pretending it's nap time. 
They don't nap time.
 (Sigh. I miss nap time...)
But this picture does make me happy.

I miss nap time too!!


But this picture is so cute, I bet it kind of makes up for the lack of naps.

Cute pic!

My kids always gave up their naps pretty young...But they went to be early, which was a nice trade off!

Oh yes...it's so hard when they drop the nap. I'm just now recovering from Griffin dropping his nap 5 year sago. :)

Book Review...and a Giveaway!!!

I was lucky enough to win an ARC of When the Rogue Returns  from Sabrina Jeffries herself! I couldn't wait to read it.  After reading the first book in The Duke's Men series, What the Duke Desires , I was excited to see that this next book was about Victor Cale. In  When the Rogue Returns , Victor Cale is headed to Scotland to investigate a woman, Sofie Franke.  He has his suspicions that this woman is actually Isabella, his wife who disappeared on him ten years before.  He has spent the last decade searching to bring her to justice after she stole the royal jewels and left him to behind to deal with the authorities.  Isabella Cale, now known as Sofie Franke, has built a new life for herself and her ten-year old daughter after her husband ran off with the royal jewels. Are you intrigued yet? Victor and Isa's first meeting was great! Both blame the other for the missing jewels, and both are greatly suspicious of the other's motives.  Despite ...

I'm not a perfect mom, I just play one on my blog

I read a blog recently that talked about food.  The mom was very careful to say she buys farm-fresh food, only organic fruits and veggies, blah blah blah.  Then she added how she fed her child a hot dog.  But she couldn't just say hot dog.  She had to specify it was nitrate free, turkey based, something or other. But why? Who cares? Is she so afraid of being judged for giving her child a real hot dog that she must waste precious words of her post making it damn clear that it was a super-healthy hot dog? Let me stand up and be the first to say I feed my kids real hot dogs.  Well all-beef ones, but still.  I didn't cloth diaper, not because I don't care about the environment, but because I'm lazy, and it's gross to me.  However, I am planning on buying some cloth pull-ups because it's cheaper......... I didn't exclusively breast-feed, and my kids turned out fine. My kids have ketchup almost every night at dinner. My kids eat McDonalds. ...

A Spooky Celebration

Far off in a field, in central Illinois, there lies a patch of pumpkins of the magical kind.    No one knows where they come from; they appear every October, yet no one ever plants a seed. Rare in nature is the person who finds this field.  It is said that only those with a touch of magick in their hearts can find this place.  As you walks delicately through the vines, you cannot help but feel a slight tremor upon nearing this particular pumpkin:  Stooping down to take a peek, you hear the faint humming of a song... What could that be? A party? A celebration? A wedding! The guests are arriving: The bouquet is prepared: Guests are seated: The "best men" take their places:  And now, the moment they've all been waiting for.... Let the celebration begin! But first, a wedding blessing: Deep peace of the running wave to you. Deep peace of the flowing air to you. Deep peace of the quiet earth to you. Deep peace of the ...
