Things I didn’t share Friday (5/10)
1. The other day, I found The Care Bears on Hulu Plus, and I entertained Michael by dancing and singing the theme song. Can you believe that I remembered the words? Anyway, he didn’t find the show to be quite as entertaining as my performance and fell asleep within 5 minutes…while I continued to watch. 2. Even though Michael was not a fan of sweet potato, he has been loving pureed peas this week. It is so cute when he opens his mouth for more. The only negative is that they are so so so messy. Last night, I...

My weekend was extremely low-key. The weather was pretty gloomy, so I spent lots of time inside doing chores and working on the blog. On those kinds of days, I always have old television shows playing in the background. While I was in the middle of a Charles in Charge marathon, I had a very random idea for today’s post. It’s intended to be completely lighthearted, and I hope that all of my fellow TV buffs out there enjoy it! The letter “R” on the gear shift does not stand for radio. (Full...

Hello! Guess who slept through the night again? I feel seriously spoiled right now, and I’m almost afraid to get too used to this. Fingers crossed that Michael keeps the streak going!

I feel so incredibly refreshed this morning- and I have this little guy to thank for it. Michael slept through the night for the very first time! I put him down to sleep at 8:30 pm, and he didn’t wake until nearly 7 am today. He usually wakes once during the night which is nothing to complain about at all. However, getting a full night of uninterrupted rest can really do a body good, and I’m flying high right now!

read moreWeekend recap (lots of family time)
I do realize that it is Wednesday, and for most people, last weekend is just a distant memory. However, today actually feels like Monday to me because MT took a couple of extra days off from work. That is why I’m a bit late to the party with my weekend recap. MT had been working extra long hours and traveling quite a bit, so I was really excited when he had the opportunity to spend some family time with Michael and me. Much of the weekend was spent running errands, but even mandatory tasks are fun when I’m with the two loves of...
