Twilight Tide Pettiskirt GIVEAWAY!!!!

Twilight Tide Pettiskirt GIVEAWAY!!!!

FABfabFABULOUS pettiskirt giveaway!

Big enough...

The other day was

one of those especially "hard ones"

It was long

and I had both kids by myself all day

...again...

and it has been tough...

I have been trying to clean and organize

my bedroom for months

ok-years really-

but really working on it for months

and had been trying on

pre-pregnancy clothes.

At the end of the night

I was brushing my teeth

in the bathroom

when Benjamin came in

and saw me wearing a sweatshirt

"Silly mommy...

you're not wearing that to bed

are you??"

"no, Ben, I was trying it on to see if it fit..."

"Hmmmm" (looking me over)

"It's ...

and I think he is going to say something like

'really nice mommy...or something like that...'

"It's...

big enough for a fat person..." !!!

I said thanks

and then laughed so hard I spit my toothpaste out!

It was really a great way to end a crappy day~

Smiling.

TRIP to IKEA...

Ok-so I got really behind in my posts

Each night that I knew I wanted to post something

I just put in a title to remind me and get the date right

and so the past few nights

I have just been trying to catch up


I have a few more to add...but the one from today is so good

that I have to skip forward for a day...

today Ben started back at soccer

and afterwards we went to IKEA for lunch


It was great! Tommy slept through lunch

so I actually got to eat my food hot...






and Ben...well-this is what he did as I was sitting a bench cleaning up Tommy

this is actually after he had been doing it for a while-
I had been watching him without him realizing it for a while and then

it just suddenly dawned on me that
I HAD to record it...

Enjoy...I did!

Wishing Whale
and when i asked him what he wished for
he replied-
I can't tell you that! it won't come true!!!


Tommy loved it was well-

March 4,




Happy Birthday Mom...




When my mother passed away




she wanted her ashes




spread out by the island




in Norway




so, water always makes me think




of her...




In her honor,




Tommy, Ben and I walked




out on the Purple People Bridge




to wish her Happy Birthday...
