While this title might seem generic and mundane, its really far from that. We typically can’t go to soccer practice, unfortunately, it conflicts with Wednesday night AWANA, but this past week since there was no AWANAS due to Spring Break, we were able to make a “once in a season” appearance at soccer practice. It…
This was us having a fun spring afternoon with the kids in Downtown Durham. Our goal was pizza – we ended up with cupcakes (it came down to 1 hour wait vs. no wait, pretty easy decision) and a brisk walk/run to work off the sugar high. I looked at this picture of Cailee and…
So this week I have day long meetings in the office every single day. I’m dreading it. Especially today. It’s supposed to be 70 degrees and sunny outside and JJ is home with the kids (so I can work) but it feels like I should be there too. On top of all that the racing…
So now we have Connor’s Gymboree class and Cailee’s soccer games at the same exact time each Saturday morning. JJ and I have to tag team with one parent going to soccer and the other to Gym class. This week I accompanied Connor to Gym class. He doesn’t much like to follow instructions from the…
I had a hard time finding an Easter egg hunt this year. Cailee has soccer and Connor has Gymboree (the life of the busy kiddos) on Saturday mornings, the same time as all of the egg hunts. I finally found one in downtown Hillsborough at 1 on Saturday. There was a really large front yard…
I’ll never understand the dynamics of animals (people either, but that’s another story). So Lola and Bogart used to play all the time. Carly just always ran and hid. When we lost Lola, we saw Carly again, but Bogart harassed the cat to no end. Now that we have Bailey, we have the best of…
So those of you who know me best know that I spend month’s planning my kid’s birthday parties. Well, here were are 3 weeks out from Connor’s #2 and I have done little to no planning. I purchased the invites, came up with a theme and pinned a few ideas to Pinterest (that was last…
Apparently Cailee was being primed for St. Patrick’s day at school this past week. She’s been talking about finding the Leprechaun all week, and was determined to find him today. We recycled her green pants in spirit of the day and took the the streets of downtown Durham. Cailee finally lost interest in the hunt…
There was a bit of confusion this week surrounding Cailee’s school pictures. The school sent home notice that they would be taken on Monday. Then last Friday, the teacher sent home the weekly newsletter and said dress your kids in something they could mess up on Monday because they were going to be planting flowers,…
The weather this weekend was awesome. And what better way to celebrate the warmer temps with our first Goodberry’s of the season. So we loaded everyone up in the car, puppy included (his little car seat fits perfectly between the two kiddos car seats so it’s pretty cute to see him sandwiched between them, all…
