A work-at-home-mum recommendation…

I always try to support work-at-home-mothers as much as I can when I’m looking for a particular item. In this case I was looking for a bag to hold my knitting supplies so I can take them out and about to classes or a coffee shop or whatever. So when I got my [...]

Yarn Whore

I will be the first to admit that I am not a fantastic knitter, but the will is there! I love the idea of it and the finished product, I just struggle in the execution! I have had some basic knitting skills since I was a kid, but I recently took a sock [...]

Look what I did Mama!

Mayanmar, Liberia, and the United States. Seriously people, when are you going to get with the program?!

Puzzling…

Adam is very into jigsaw puzzles. He has passed down all his baby wooden puzzles to Josh and has been doing regular small jigsaws with anywhere from 12-24 pieces for quite some time now, with no problems whatsoever. I also got him a puzzle of the USA a few months ago that has [...]

He stayed dry!

Wow, this is a first and we’re so happy about it! Adam is potty trained during the day but still wears a night time pullup. Last night he got up at 5:30am to tell us he needed to go potty! So he went and his diaper was still dry this morning! [...]
