We visited the dentist this week to check on Kayden & Kennedy’s teeth. I was able to secure an appointment for both of them on the same day and the same time and this worked because I knew hubs would be off. Well the morning of the appointment, hubs says he has a meeting so [...]

He thinks we’re homies. We’re not. He thinks I forgot about the contract he signed. I didn’t. He must’ve bumped his head. I think so. He and I have the same access to his grades and homework pages. I’ve given him all the advice I could possibly give-check it before I do. What else is [...]

I have been occupying their little social calendars with everything from music lessons to sports. I’m even trying to [...]

I saw this last year and didn’t have this blog then to tell you guys about it. But check out this poster! I love it and it would come in handy right about now. I let the kids do “clean” arts & crafts in the house but this is so something they can do in [...]
