About a month ago I posted about our Sunday Funday where we were finally able to find a VCR. Do People even still own these? I have owned a few VCR's in the last 7 or so years. Why? Well, like a lot of people growing up in the 80s and 90s, my family owned a video... Continue Reading →
It's 1:31am, thunder is rolling in once again. I'm laying here with a backache, thinking about random things. October is almost over. That is 10 months out of the 12 that we are alotted each year. 10 months that have already gone by, but feeling more like 3. I have always heard older people tell... Continue Reading →

People always talk about the terrible two's. In my old blog, which no longer exists thanks to that website, I talked about parenting a "three-nager". Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like, a three year old with the attitude of a teenager. I thought we were finally getting a grasp on Pickle's attitude. He... Continue Reading →
One of the topics that comes up a lot is whether or not we are done having children. As soon as you give birth people ask you many questions like, "so will you have another?" "Are you going to have more?" "Are you done now that you have one of each?" Why is it we... Continue Reading →
