Baby Bird

2011-05-31T07:21:00.000-05:00

Yesterday the boys found a baby bird in the neighbors yard, put it in a little laundry basket and brought it into the house. Boys are just really nuts, or fun... depends on how you look at it. They also said that they fed it a worm (they had dug some up the other day). Oh the joy of living in a house of boys.

Christmas Planning

2010-11-21T21:19:00.000-06:00

The ideas are already swimming in my head. What to get who. Who will give what (I buy for my mother-in-law and at least one of my brothers) I just love browsing the ads and thinking about what we are going to get. I have started my spread sheet to track what I am spending. I just love picking out presents for the boys and trying to figure out what I can get for a good deal that they will

Johny the Elf on the Shelf: Week 1

2010-11-20T10:22:00.000-06:00

We had a small issue this week, when E touched Johny when he was in the bathroom. Johny didn't go see Santa that night, but the next day we reread the book, and talked again about the rule of not touching Johny, the next day Johny was on the little candle/lamp in the Living Room holding a pen. He had left a note for B, E and N. In the note it said that he missed us for that day, and that

Elf on the Shelf

2010-11-13T11:28:00.001-06:00

I heard about the Elf on the Shelf last year, and wanted to get one, but didn't because I didn't feel it was worth it (I am cheap you know). But today I saw it on the shelf at Gifts from the Heart and I couldn't resist, so I bought it. I know a impulse buy that totally goes against my nature, but I couldn't resist. The idea of the Elf on the Shelf, family tradition. Is that the elf works for

Closet Rorganization

2010-04-24T19:57:00.000-05:00

So this week on flylady, was the bedroom. I decided to clean out the closet and get rid of some of my clothes. Not that I have a lot of clothes to discard or, I just have a lot that I don't wear anymore, either it doesn't if or I just don't like it anymore. I ended up getting a big pile of clothes My closet looked pretty good when I was done. and I had lots more flip flops then I realized.
