Where did the time go?
I haven't posted in a while because I have sick kids, husband and tons of chores to catch up on! Oh yea and school for me, ugh! The good thing is I got a sample of boiron that is homeopathic medicine for children. I was able to use it on my 2 year old and will be giving a full review soon.
Ill be posting more frequently AFTER my finals...

Chalkboard
My 2 year old is always wanting to write, paper gets ripped and thrown around and my lil girl eats the paper...or they run with the pencils soooo....
we decided to make a chalkboard for their playroom. My husband went to home depot 2x4 thin formica board and a can of chalkboard paint. He sprayed it and let it sit in the sun to dry, then he hung it on the wall with screws (all 4 corners) so they couldn't pull it down. I bought some sidewalk chalk because its fatter and doesn't leave a lot dust on their hands.

Back to School!
Both my 14 year old and myself are back to school for the fall!
I am not working and YES its been over a year, I have gone back to school to finish my bachelors degree in business, I am learning so much.
Although, I wish I went back to school before my latest editions (Sam and Ruby) Im sure it would have been easier. BUT-its never too late and I want my oldest to follow by example.
Well...off to bed now, I have class in the AM..

Tale of a Teen birthday
Not having a plan was the best thing I ever thought of for my oldest child 14th birthday. We knew we were going to dinner and let him pick the place out. He chose the Tokyo Steakhouse Where the chefs cook right in front of you, it was a great experince for a hard to please teen!
They were chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and cannoli cream. Yumm!
Then we went to a local fair, Olde Homes Day. I think I saw him crack a smile in public! It was a great way to wrap up the day.
I felt like I was having fun instead of stressing out over the party details! Yay ME!! :) I even went on a few rides myself.
