I just lied to my kid’s teacher. Straight up flat out lied like a bandit. Really, I totally lied to her. I walked in late with my daughter to preschool and the teacher says to me–Is the Discovery bag (Show and Tell bag with snacks) out in your car? *Panic Face* Dammit. I Just Lied …
Blog, you know Halle… Well, she wants to answer your questions. So, if there’s something you want to ask a four year old, then here’s your chance! Ask her anything (that doesn’t offend me–I’m her mom I have final say on all q answering.) and next week she will be back to let you in …
So, my daughter loves that little Kai-Lan show, and I am okay with it too. It’s cute, the songs are snappy–and no one takes their top off. (That’s how you know for sure it’s quality family programming these days.) But, her new thing is that she has decided she speaks Chinese… when it’s convenient. We’ve …
So, we’re sitting on the couch watching the MTV movie awards an educational program on PBS, and my daughter says, “Mom if you want to keep me, then you have to make sure nothing bad happens to me ever. Oh no. What is she talking about? So, I ask her, “Halle, what do you mean …
It’s Halle’s birthday today. She turns 4. So, I thought we would take a look at the many hairstyles of Halle over the years… It all started with the bling hat. I should have known I was in for it then… And then the spike look started–who’s hair does that on it’s own? Halle’s… that’s …
Well, you asked for it, so here it is–Ten reasons I need to keep playing WoW. 10. It’s something to do in my free time. Sometimes you just want something mindless and fun to do, warcraft is exactly that. There isn’t a whole lot of thinking behind mindless daily quests and raids you’ve done before–so …
Okay, let me clarify. My lizard is a badass. How is this thing still alive? He lives in our kitchen and eats meal worms. (shudder) And, I am the worst pet owner ever. I am grossed out by forget to feed him, sometimes I forget to give him water, and I HATE cleaning out his …
A friend of mine had an interesting post earlier today about the stories that have influenced her. I started to comment, but then my comment got a little out of hand, so I decided to post it here instead. I read a lot. Hundred books in a year? No problem.Especially now that I can just …
Man that cake must taste sweet! I can’t believe my daughter is one today, but she is… she REALLY is! I am so proud of her!
woohoo! I got all of Halle’s birthday supplies! I am so excited! She is going to have the best rubber duck birthday party EVER! Oh I hope she has fun! She loves ducks so much I think she will be excited to see all the great ducks! I hope she isn’t disappointed… haha can you …
Man, I love being a mom… you just get to see such cool stuff. This tiny little person that came from YOU is exploring and learning everything there is to learn in the whole world, and you get to be their guide. I mean sure, there is cleaning, bootie wiping, putting to bed, and all …
Okay, my daughter is back home, my company is gone, and we should be able to return to normal now… I had a super great time with my cousins here, but I am definitely worn out from the weekend! Yesterday we had my husband’s company picnic, and Hal went on her very first boat ride! …
Okay, so I went to the preschool down the road, and I took my daughter and I filled out an application. They seemed VERY interested in me… in fact I go in on Friday to look around the place, and then I think I am going to substitute for them during the summer… and they …
Well… obviously Halle has been here, but the question is… how can a child so tiny need so many toys? Or, more importantly, how can a child so tiny get bored with all these toys so quickly? You buy thousands of dollars in toys, and your kid would rather play with her daddy’s shoe! It …
I am finally scrapbooking again! and it feels soooo good hehe! I finally sat down and did a page… I owe it all to Ali Edwards. She said “Don’t scrap chronologically” in this month’s Creating Keepsakes, so I decided to listen! Huh, to think… all I had to do was listen to a scrapbooking legend …
Well, helk… I don’t know why I was so damn worried about Easter… the day started off with Hal puking all over me and then just kept going from there…. all day long… then the next day I caught it… then the next day Keet caught it, then my MOM! ugh! That was no fun! …
What the heck am I going to put in my kid’s Easter Basket? I mean, I don’t want to break the bank or anything, but I want her first Easter to be special. Hehe mostly for the amazing scrapbook pics… but also so she has fun too! How can she have fun and have a …
Well, my little girl was looking a little scraggly today, and her bangs were in her eyes, so I took her to get her first haircut! She got to watch an Elmo movie while sitting in a little car… so all in all it was a pretty good experience… I got a little stressed out …
Well… I guess it is about time I jumped on the blog bandwagon…. I should tell you a little about myself. My name is Jamie, I am a 27 year old Stay at Home mom with a wonderful daughter, Halle. All in all I would say I have a pretty fun time. Being a mom …
