Muir Coincidence: November 2014
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 29, 2014. As Chris and I pulled out our Christmas tree today, we talked about how you never know how long you might end up keeping something when you buy it. We still have that tree! We talked about replacing it this year, but did not find what we were looking for. It has actually been really great. It is tall (6.5 feet) , but on the small end. It has easily fit into every apartment that we have lived in. Wednesday, November 19, 2014. We have been working on getting Andrew to know some...

Muir Coincidence: December 2014
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 30, 2014. We joked today that he would finally get his tuition's worth now that Michigan might actually start winning. Which is actually really appropriate considering that:. We finally paid off his law loans today! I can't even begin to explain what a relief this is. He came out of school owing sooo much money. It was crazy. I opened a loan statement right after he graduated and I freaked out a little inside. Law school tuition was not cheap! Tuesday, December 9, 2014. We had a great t...

Muir Coincidence: Joshua Tree
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2015/03/joshua-tree.html
Sunday, March 1, 2015. We have been meaning to visit Joshua Tree for years. We had some friends go a couple of years ago and it looked cool. The main problem was that we were not sure how to do it. We thought about getting a hotel, but driving east on a Friday night in LA is a pretty bad idea. So we never went. If you look closely, you can see Chris and Andrew in the middle of this photo. It looks like you had a great day! It was fun to see you last week and your darling children! March 9, 2015 at 7:43 AM.

Muir Coincidence: May 2014
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 20, 2014. Scarlett was so comfortable and happy to interact with other shoppers. Even though she can sit up now, she still loves it because she can rest on the pillows when she gets tired. 5) Ergo baby carrier: I got one of these carriers when Andrew was 1. It was great to be able to carry him around hands free when he was such a big boy. I have really liked it this time around because I can nurse Scarlett in it (Thanks Alicia for the tip! I love that I do not have to stop and sit down to fe...

Muir Coincidence: March 2014
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 19, 2014. Ms Scarlett has only been on solid food for a little over a week, and she is already in love. She will eat anything and everything. I cannot feed her fast enough! The photos below are from my phone. Scarlett has seen how much Andrew covets soda, so now she does too (she actually wants any drink that you are drinking, regardless of the contents). Andrew insisted on trying rice cereal too. He was not impressed. She still loves to swing too! Monday, March 17, 2014. Recipes To Writ...

Muir Coincidence: January 2015
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 11, 2015. Christmas day was pretty low key for us this year. In the past we have gone to San Diego, but my mom pointed out that there are only a few years when Santa comes down your own chimney. So we stayed home! Joe was in town, so that added the perfect amount of excitement. Andrew has been so excited for Santa to come. Santa has been in our behavioral conversations since about September. I love Santa for that! His elves watching are the perfect bribe for just about anything. At 10 mon...

Muir Coincidence: July 2014

Monday, July 28, 2014. Orlando: How TV Influenced My Vacation. I liked this tactic. Even though I am pretty sure it was a joke in The Middle, it really helped to make me focus on the positives of the trip when everything was not going just right. Thursday, July 17, 2014. This and That-Summer edition. I think it was the cutest thing ever. And I need to realize that she is a big girl. But fortunately I think that the scale is going back down again. Wednesday, July 16, 2014. Sunday, July 13, 2014. I noticed...

Muir Coincidence: October 2014
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. I always want to post a lot of photos on Facebook/Instagram, but I try to control myself. It just occurred to me that I can publish the photos here. So here it goes, with the caption that I would put with each photo if I were to put it on social media. Scarlett was so proud that she climbed to the top of the playground by herself. Swim lessons are almost over for the season. I can't resist this cute boy in goggles. Getting ready for Halloween. On her favorite ride, obviously.

Muir Coincidence: August 2014
http://michiganmegan.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 14, 2014. I read an article recently about a mom who set several successful rules for her young kids. I think that I saw it on Facebook. I skimmed them over, but one really stuck with me. It was that the author's mom "job" was over at 8. She set up that expectation with everyone (kids, husband, herself) so that she could ensure a few hours of non-kid and non-chore time in the evening. Saturday, August 2, 2014. That is because Florida is scorching, and water just does not cut it. My s...
