This and That

Tell It Tuesday – May 18th

Here we are again and I am happy to say that I have 3 exams behind me and have one left to take on Thursday. While I don’t have the result yet of the exam I took last night, I am proud to say that so far I’m getting an A in the class… I sure hope to keep the streak going! Hopefully I’ll know by early to midweek next week.

The Just Post – Post

Somewhere along the line I forgot what it’s like to just post… not a post with an update on the kids… not a post with pictures of the kids… not a review or a giveaway… just a post… my thoughts, cohesive or not… whatever.

This post will be just that… if I can manage it that is. My brain is fried… my eyes hurt from being so tired. It is almost midnight and I should really be in bed.

Tell it Tuesday – Again

Just a quick update today. Time is flying by and I don’t know where it’s going! Abigail is almost 2 months old… in some ways she still feels so new and then in others it feels like she’s been a part of our family forever. She’s got her own little personality already. She’s not much of a crier, instead she grunts… a lot.

When Church Bells Ring

The town that I lived in in Germany was a very small one… it has a population of about 530 and I like to joke that there are more cows and livestock than people living there. I loved that almost everyone knew each other and that neighbors watched out for each other… you didn’t see much of that in the huge Chigago suburbs.

April Showers… {Foto Friday}

April showers bring spring flowers… though I really can’t say that we’ve gotten much rain this April and I’m very happy about that, because it meant that we were able to go out and play! I don’t have the greenest thumb when it comes to indoor flowering plants, so I’m glad that I don’t need one for the bulbs I planted outside…

An Open Letter

I have been neglecting this little space of the web lately. It’s been so nice outside, so the kids and I have been spending quite a bit of time out playing and enjoying the sunshine and warmer weather. I do plan on getting things back on track though this week. To start out the week though, I thought I would write an open letter to our neighbor (WARNING: It’s a bit of a rant).

How will we bond?

I look at my little girl sleeping peacefully here on the couch next to me and I can’t help but smile. She’s a noisy little thing and is always making noises of one kind or another… in my mind, I have nicknamed her “Squeaker”.

I can admit now that I had my doubts before she was born. While I knew that I loved this little person growing in me, I didn’t feel as connected to her as I had felt with her brother….
