Nielsen Life: November 2014
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2014. Which was followed by Thanksgiving. Sheesh I should have caught up on my blog. I started this month and had the thought, "What did we do for Thanksgiving this year? It took me a LONG time to remember. Embarrassingly long time. But then I remembered and I am determined to write it down so I don't forget again! Cause we had a really fun Thanksgiving! I just started crying as I walked into the store. He was sitting on a bench, surrounded by McDonald employees eating an ice cre...

Nielsen Life: December 2013
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. I have started to write about my little guy so many times and have never gotten around to finishing a post and this post is already totally outdated. But my little guy is just too awesome to not be remembered in his babyness. So, understanding that this post is about last month current, I am going to share all things Jude. He reminds me so much of Scarlet as a baby. Size, facial features, temperament, pointy elf ears. When he is awake in the sling, he loves to push his hands ag...

Nielsen Life: April 2014
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 13, 2014. So I lost my camera battery charger and so the camera has been dead meat for about two months. And my phone camera is pretty darn pathetic. And, things are just a little extra busy at the moment. and I have been taking my usual Sunday blogging time to catch up on sleep from the week. (I can hear my dad's voice saying, you can't catch up on sleep! It doesn't work like that! Well it does in my world, dad so get out of my head). I can do it. Sitting, snacking. and snack sitting.

Nielsen Life: September 2013
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 30, 2013. And then there were four. And then, before I knew it, my due date was here. Yay! I was going to go into labor at ANY SECOND! I then went to bed without a single contraction. But before we get to that. let's back up a bit. The one thing that would have really helped Asher's delivery in my mind is if I had been mentally prepared at all for it. I did not have one thought in my head other than, 'this needs to stop hurting right now' and 'where is the *@&# guy with the needle?

Nielsen Life: October 2013
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 23, 2013. Jumping back to September 13th, my Rhode man turned 5 years old. Rhode is such an awesome kid. He is incredibly sweet and so friendly to people. Instead of saying "you're welcome" he has started saying, "My Pleasure! In his best gentleman voice. It is killer cute. He is so funny right now, mostly unintentionally as he spouts off his ever growing knowledge. I recently posted this conversation on facebook:. Gems from a conversation between two 5 year old boys:. Oh yeah, I had a...

Nielsen Life: October 2014
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. It was going to be the year of no theme. It has to end eventually right? At some point they will be big enough that I can't physically shove them into my costume of choice. Just kidding, I haven't done that. Yet. The funny thing is the one that really was knocking the theme for us was Asher. I couldn't get the kid to agree on anything. So I scrapped it. Pick whatever you want from the costume bin. Who needs an adorable, family filled theme? Scarlet the creative to the rescue!

Nielsen Life: In October
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2014/12/in-october.html
Wednesday, October 15, 2014. I am so bummed that I did not blog sooner about October. We had such a good October and I am going to do an extremely poor job of retelling it. I also do not have nearly enough pictures. The Nielsen crew is not great at documenting our good moments. And since I constantly rely on others to capture my memories. I am blaming them. We got to see the Campbells while we were down there, which was a lot of fun. We also ate a lot of good food. Nielsens always eat well. I am finally ...

Nielsen Life: August 2014
http://nielsenlife.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 19, 2014. Some to Remember, Some to Forget. But then my mom decided we needed to be there. Jon couldn't go but we compiled some airline points and got flights for all of my children and myself. I must have asked my mom, "Are you sure you really want us there? About a hundred times. When the tickets were officially booked, I remember saying, "Okay, but just remember. You brought this upon yourself.". Note the accurate foreshadowing. Jude loved the ocean too. He ate a lot of sand. I...We ro...
