Last weekend, daddy ran the Philly Rock n Roll Half Marathon. As usual, he did very well, top 4% overall. The little guy was super excited. So when daddy got home, he presented him with a hand drawn gift. On the surface it appeared to be super sweet. I mean the sun is shining in …
Ever wonder how one little gift turns into a quest to own a massive pile of Legos. And why was I not more aware of this growing obsession. I need more, more, more, said the mad king. Legos, Legos, Legos, you are everywhere and are quickly becoming mommy’s number one enemy. Bins full of them, …
It was a crazy fast week for us. Work was nutty. School work continued on. Karate kept us moving. And this weekend, daddy is running the Rock n Roll Half Marathon. What would life be without controlled chaos. We did manage to get the pool several times this week….cold water doesn’t stop the boy. With …
So Tuesday was a busy day for us, but I made time to go to the Back to School night. The little guy was so excited for me. He kept telling me that there was a big surprise..and in a serious tone said “mommy, act surprised” Well that big surprise was a big life side …

Our Labor Day was action packed. My parents and uncles arrived on Thursday night. On Saturday, we took off early for Texas to watch the SC/Bama game. So much fun…result of game, not so much. It was really cool to see the Trojan family out representing, even in an embarrassing lose. As for Jerry World..it …
I’m not going to lie, we almost blew off Wednesday karate. Good thing we didn’t because we did our belt test 2 days early. Pretty funny to watch the kids running around before class and then putting on their game face when it was announce. And the little guy was one of two kids that …
This is week also saw the return of school. There is a big first grader in the house! We couldn’t be more proud of him. He reads, spells and counts way before we were doing that stuff. Crazy the capacity of their brain at that age. Today, he has to get up in front of …
Last weekend, Mommy and a few of her friends went to the Jimmy Buffet concert. We had so much fun. His music always puts me in a tropical mood. Here’s to wasting away in Margaritaville!
Today, the relatives arrive from Ohio. One special uncle is celebrating his birthday. Uncle Larry turns 75 and we couldn’t be more pleased. His story is special. Contracted polio as a boy, convined to wheel chair, not expected to live past 20. He dug down deep and conquerd the odds. Mommy is so lucky to …
