http://amoodlife.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

For family. For friends. For fun. Monday, April 11, 2011. But some things I've learned that help with my newly emotioned (making up words here) four-year-old:. Not shouting - me. And most of all, quality time. QT It's got to be Peyton's love language. And quality time with other family members is not the same as quality time with Mommy. I've learned the hard way. She will have my attention one way or the other. Know what I'm sayin'? Of face time to Pey, she is remarkably well-behaved and. How You Can Adv...

For family. For friends. For fun. Wednesday, January 18, 2012. Five Favorite Decemberings - Part 4 - The Cake. Okay, it's past the middle of January, so I'm gonna get these out real quick - parts four and five of my favorite Decemberings. And you know why I want to blog so much about December? I know I didn't have to do it, and the great part was that I wasn't doing it to impress anyone. For reals. I did it, racing against the clock, because I just wanted to (for once!

For family. For friends. For fun. Tuesday, March 19, 2013. Honey's worth waking up for. Mama Bear's been taking a little nappity nap, and I think I overslept about a year too long. A year, people. I just don't even know about that, but what I do know is that this Mama Bear's been sleeping for too long. Too.long. All I want for Christmas is a new blog post.". You wanted for Christmas from me, well, and maybe you're were also sending a message that you don't want another. So, you lured me out by saying thi...

Sweet Algamina: Fun with cousins

http://lifeofjewels.blogspot.com/2012/04/fun-with-cousins.html

Pronunciation: Al-ga-me-na Definition: Gigi's word for ice cream, capturing the sweet and crazy moments of raising kids and being a mom. Saturday, April 7, 2012. Cayden playing in Gigi's bed. Zachary is such a sweet cousin he loves playing with Sammy and Sammy could not be happier. I am not sure where it came from but when I say smile Gigi's head always goes to the side. Last week I started reading, Bittersweet. And I also saw it mentioned on my friend Corrina's blog www.embracetheday.com. Oh, what a day.

The Space Between: Dear Husband, This Is Why I Spent $100 at Target Yesterday

http://in-the-space-between.blogspot.com/2015/05/dear-husband-this-is-why-i-spent-100-at.html

Thursday, May 14, 2015. Dear Husband, This Is Why I Spent $100 at Target Yesterday. Here's an abbreviated version of my current to-do list (which is an ever-changing rolodex of semi-creative "genius"):. The little table behind the couch, which I'm dreaming about painting yellow. The dining room chairs which need re-upholstering due to excessive crayon and Play-Doh abuse. The ten-year-old desk from Target in the guest room that's begging to be painted a distressed white. Needs to get on that expose' pront...

The Guatemala that finally won me | Snaps & BlabsSnaps & Blabs

http://snapsandblabs.com/blog/10671/guatemala_best

Life before the trip. The Big Trip Now. The Guatemala that finally won me. I have been waiting to visit Guatemala for awhile now. In the traveling groups I badly try to keep up with, everybody raves about it, it is the favorite spot in Central America for just about all of them. So we came. Me, full of hopes. Lake Atitlan is nice. Is it stunning, “one of the most beautiful lakes in the World”? The other favorite spot for traveling folks in Guatemala is Antigua. Oh, the tourist overload! 15 July, 2014.

My last post was 11 months ago which is a clear picture of how hard my pregnancy was and what a huge transition it has been going from 2 to 3 kids. I want to make sure and get Rocco's birth story posted while I can still remember it so clearly. 7:00pm My in-laws left to go home. 7:35 Frank and I were on our way t...

Iceland on a painfully tight budget-worth it? | Snaps & BlabsSnaps & Blabs

http://snapsandblabs.com/blog/10847/iceland-travel-budget-camp

Life before the trip. The Big Trip Now. Iceland on a painfully tight budget-worth it? Not many folks is good, because when in this emptiness you go wild and throw around glaciers, volcanoes, lava fields, waterfalls and clean energy production, you get one of the most peaceful, interesting and clean travel destinations around. But don’t do it. More importantly, the city is not ‘Iceland’, sorry. It is simply the spot where more than half of those very few folks make a living. We found ourselves in Reykjavi...
