Tips, Solutions and Humor for Moms
I am a seriously disorganized cook and an equally disorganized grocery shopper. And if I have the kids with me, what I usually end up with when I get home is one meal and a bunch of other stuff that adds up to a huge grocery bill. So this week’s Tech Tuesday tip is from [...]
Stroller Strides My friend, Megan, runs with her baby and uses this jogging stroller. She does something called Stroller Strides, which is an exercise program that moms can do with their babies. It’s a class you take, and the one nearest me costs about $9.00 per class. I’m actually beyond the stroller stage, but thought [...]
This post was written by my husband about his experience in Washington, DC on September 11, 2001. Surreal — that’s the word that I’ve used most often in describing the events of 9/11 while living in the Metro DC area. I had just started my day in the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill [...]
Because that’s how we roll. Annnnd, here’s how it looked from the outside. I think this pretty much sums up our world.
Do you have an insane amount of store loyalty cards in your wallet and on your key chain like I do? Well, I found a great app for my phone that is helping me with this problem. It’s called Key Ring and it allows me to store all of my card numbers in my phone. Neat, [...]

Almost everyone I know in town (including us) is scheduled to get a new roof. We weren’t in a big hurry, because we didn’t have any leaks. Ahem, [...]
My husband was away on a weekend business trip at a luxury resort while I was treated to an EXTRA helping of “quality” time with the kids. Caffeine I have fallen off the soda wagon so many times (I am pretty much out of excuses). We were headed to my nephew’s 2-year-old birthday party and [...]
I remember reading about an organizational tool called Evernote a while ago. But it wasn’t until my friend Adam sent me this video that I realized how much this tool could actually help me (us) keep things organized. Take a look, and let me know what you think.
I’m not one of those people who is hung up on when my kid does XYZ. But I have to tell you that my son, Charlie (who just turned four) can sound out words and read a little bit. I wish I could say, “Oh yes, I taught my young progeny to read!” But that would [...]
Mardi Gras in the Playroom. Hopefully there was no flashing. Emptying the dishwasher, what else would I find in the silverware holder? Ketchup packets, of course. Because the Barbie phone works best on a full charge. Ever been to a pizza place where they give the kids dough to play with and then they bake [...]
