i like mondays

They are the quietest day in the park.
They give me five whole days to get some work done before the weekend.
Since it's summer they mean we don't have to rush off to school.
Sam will be in school five days a week in the Fall so it's important to me that we make the most of our days together this summer.

What does 'making the most of summer' mean?

Freedom.

Freedom to stay in PJ's all day if we want
Freedom to run errands all day long
Freedom to go to playgroup or to stay home if we aren't up for the drive
Freedom to have pancakes for lunch and popcorn for dinner
Freedom to paint for hours
Freedom to watch tv for hours
Freedom to eat ice cream every day if we want
Freedom to take 2 baths a day
Freedom to stay outside even after the rain starts to fall, but I'm getting ahead of myself on that one...you'll have to wait for Tuesday's installment of how I spent my summer vacation for that one!

What does making the most of summer vacation mean to you?

  1. Oh, I love staying in pj's until I feel like getting out of them =) And more than 1 bath a day, that's pretty awesome too! Just having nothing to do, playing, park, swimming, doing whatever, whenever, no schedule...I love summer too!!

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able. Please be sure I can get in touch with you through your blog and/or an email address. Thank you for covering my dear friend and her family with prayers!

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute. Could this mean we're getting close? Could I actually go early for a change?I turned to Google and learned that labor could be hours or days away. I feel I should warn you - if you decide to Google mucus plug be prepared to see photographic proof. Why people felt the need to post pictures to Google images is beyond me!  Moving on..... Just in case I ended up being one of the lucky ones who only had hours to wait until labor started I kept up with my clean...

Shabby Apple Giveaway!

Spring is in the air and that means it's time to start thinking about changing over our closets from Winter to Spring. I don't know about you, but that also means it's time to look for a few new pieces to bring new life to what I wear year after year. Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d...
