Get a load of this: I broke another toe. I’ve gone 11 or 12 years without breaking a toe and now I’ve done it twice in the past few weeks. My left pinky toe has now joined the right one in being bruised and swollen. Good thing the right one is almost healed and good… Continue reading I Broke-ed It

Dearest Isaac
Oh my Ikey darling, how your frustrate me so. With your “special” whine and your aversion to my bosoms. You cry whenever I leave your sight and you insist on sleeping with me at night, you wouldn’t have it any other way. Oh Isaac, you’ve been constantly drooling and pooping these past few weeks. Your… Continue reading Dearest Isaac
Leah The Nugget
I have this problem and I really don’t know how to make it better. It’s a major major flaw that I have a hard time even wanting to change. I never ever ever get out. I seriously can be locked in my house for a week and hardly notice that I haven’t left. Once I… Continue reading Leah The Nugget
My Souleth Restoreth
Today is a day that has restored my soul. Oh beautiful fall day! My sister Juliet and I went to this farm that has hay rides, petting zoo, pumpkins, etc. It was beautiful there. The boys just loved it. I was tentative to take Silas on the hay ride because I thought he would be… Continue reading My Souleth Restoreth
What’s Real Beauty?
Watch this video before reading on (k I had no idea why everything below is so spaced out, I DIDN’T DO IT!!) I wish someone had gotten to me before the media did. How many of us, knowing that magazine girls are airbrushed, look at them and think that we need to look at… Continue reading What’s Real Beauty?

Thirteen Cherished Memories I’m going to try and do these in chronological order, we’ll see how I do Fishing with my dad. He’d take me fishing all of the time because I didn’t need a license to fish. I’d catch my limit all the time and that’s how we got food a lot (we… Continue reading Thursday Thirteen #11
Halloween Costumes
This is my second post of the day, yes the laundry is already folded :). I found this really cool website that for Halloween costumes! It looks way better than buying costumes in the stores because they’re usually the same old same old. At anytimecostumes.com you can find costumes for plus sizes, kids, adults and… Continue reading Halloween Costumes
Stupid Drifting Drifters
I think that they’re making driving lanes too skinny. I’m terrified passing anyone these days because so many people drift over the line while I do it. I almost got driven into the boullivard last night. People just drift everywhere and it drives me freaking crazy. I think it’s getting worse, it’s really always happening. … Continue reading Stupid Drifting Drifters
Closet Co-Sleeper
I have a confession to make. I’ve always thought that co-sleeping wasn’t for me, I’ve always thought that it was rather dangerous and it was spoiling your child. But I do confess that these past 4 months I’ve become a full fledged co-sleeper. It just crept up on me and now these last few weeks… Continue reading Closet Co-Sleeper
Blog Break
So I took the past few days off…I’ll be back tomorrow (Tuesday)
I Ache
I ache, it’s weird, my whole body aches. It aches like I have a fever but I don’t have one and I don’t have the headache. It’s really odd, it feels awful. A hot shower makes it better as does some ibuprofin. My life lately has really been quite the load. It’s interesting isn’t it? … Continue reading I Ache
Yay Screaming!
Ahh, the lovely sound of the scream. How it vibrates in my ear drums and makes my whole body go stiff. How it makes my teeth hurt, and the lovely feeling of frustration that builds up in my body, waiting to be released on an unsuspecting wall when no one is looking. Beautiful screaming. We’re… Continue reading Yay Screaming!

Saved By The Mom
Yesterday was one of the hardest days I’ve experienced as a mother. I want to cry just thinking about it. Silas was awful, just completely horrible and I have the bruises to prove it. I don’t know if it was the ear infection or teething or what but he was a monster. He’d pick the… Continue reading Saved By The Mom
Feel Free To Laugh
Isaac is in his bouncy chair pooping and looking at me as though to say “I’m so sorry to do this to you mommy, but I had to”. His innocent face somewhat sustains me through these God forsaken, awful days. Clouds have rolled over the lower mainland and once again we are blanketed by darkness… Continue reading Feel Free To Laugh
