Yesterday was one of those days. The morning went fairly smoothly. I took the kids to Walmart to pick up a few supplies to make more Angry Bird Beanbags. Unfortunately, Walmart’s felt selection was not impressive… and by the time we finished shopping, the kids were exhausted! I know, you are probably thinking, how long does […]
This weekend, my husband got a new toy for our son. Okay… he also got himself a new toy. They discovered these Mini Remote Control cars at the Babies and Kids Expo in Houston, at Fundamentally Toys. They actually had them for $2 less than Amazon. I wasn’t so sure that it was a good idea… with […]

Add to that, being horizontal, with baby attached and you might better grasp why this is challenging. I know that every mom has her “moments”, good and bad. […]
