mommy monologues: Father, Husband, Best Friend
http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2011/06/its-been-almost-month-since-my-last.html
Sunday, June 19, 2011. Father, Husband, Best Friend. It's been almost a month since my last post.I've been soaking up the outdoors daily with my boys, tossing them in the chariot and going to bike rides. My neighbor and I have gone together, and my sister along with her girls. Best exercise ever! There's nothing like pulling over fifty pounds of toddlers behind ya to get the old heart rate going! Everything looks so lush and full! Watermelon, kiddie pool and sunshine. Need I say more? Snacks and a rest!

mommy monologues: My Momma
http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2013/11/my-momma.html
Wednesday, November 13, 2013. Well, if you know our family, we can't be "told" much. We are pretty strong-willed, strong-headed people. And we didn't like what we were being told. We felt let down. how could five or so doctors sit around a table and read over mom's file, and discuss for hours if she had any options, and then come out with nothing? Well, except this pill.but it didn't really guarantee anything other than a lot of pain, and countless other side-effects. We were given HOPE. I can't tell you...

mommy monologues: January 2013
http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 10, 2013. My New Year's Resolution. Its been too long since I last blogged.not sure why. Sometimes life gets away on us, and it reminds me to slow down. Take some time. Reflect. Soak it all in. Over the holidays, I tried my best to keep the gifts down to a minimum. I have seen so many people spoil their already spoiled children. I'm not saying they are "bad" kids or "bad" parents for doing so.it just gets a little grotesque. Astounded that there were none. Have you ever noticed that adu...

http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 13, 2011. OK, so some people have told me that they think I have my sh*t together.and to them I say thank you.but yes, I am faking it! Some days I don't get in a shower, let alone a washroom break. Some days I leave all of the dishes in the sink until bedtime, when I can fire them into the dishwasher, which I am in LOVE with! I have never had a dishwasher). And boy, does it come out. About it, sort it out, and move on. Don't dwell on it! They are such great people and I find myself lucki...

mommy monologues: the sprouts of my grandparent's roots
http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2011/01/sprouts-of-my-grandparents-roots.html
Friday, January 28, 2011. The sprouts of my grandparent's roots. Let me back track a little. A few years ago, when I was pregnant with my first child, I wrote a weekly column in our local newspaper. I called it Belly Monologues, and it was a way I could creatively put out to the world (or our town) what I was feeling. What I was going through.what creating another human being was like. I wanted people to know that I was building a human. And that is what I am doing now. She reached out to him! We helped ...

Wednesday, March 20, 2013. Keeping the Peace and the Pieces together. I went on a five day trip in February and I felt guilty the entire time. And I still do.

Little feet in my house. Too much to talk about. A long time ago. Vegetarian.with a side of gratitude. From the heart of a girl who lost her mom. Big G My Grandma...

mommy monologues: Words I never thought would come out of my mouth...
http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2013/04/words-i-never-thought-would-come-out-of.html
Wednesday, April 10, 2013. Words I never thought would come out of my mouth. As a mom of boys, you know that you will have to repeat yourself over and over, you know that you will have to raise your voice over the noise of two ninjas battling it out just so you can say "Supper is ready! But somedays, I am literally BLINDSIDED by the words that just came out of my mouth. I gasp and think "Did I seriously just have to say that? During bath time) "Boys! Do not fight each other with your penises! Good brothe...

mommy monologues: Gravity
http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2012/03/gravity.html
Wednesday, March 28, 2012. In life, we have constants, that one person who is always there.sometimes quietly in the background, sometimes cheering us on loudly. That one person who pulls, or pushes us in the right direction. That one person who you look towards for strength, support, advice.or just that silence. You know, the silence that is so calming, so relaxing.so full of love. In my life, I have a large group of these "constants" . my parents, siblings, grandparents, and friends. And he gave a good ...

http://ellisandjenner.blogspot.com/2011/02/family-comes-together.html
Saturday, February 5, 2011. A family comes together. My family is very tightly knit.on both my mother's side and my father's side. If there is every a problem or emergency, we all do our best to help out where and when we can, from where ever we may be at that time. With Ellis.Summer 2009. Grandma and Grandpa's wedding, England, Dec 5, 1944. The word to best describe that. They are the greatest example of marriage. A picture I took of Grandpa's old truck. And in this day and age, it is hard.its hard ...
