The first week of school always makes for a fun adventure. This year, for the first day, I double-checked with G what time he planned on waking up. “I’m going to set my alarm for 6:20.” Okay then. I got up… at some weird hour but ended up planning my workout so it would end […]

But looking back and seeing the baby years, his accomplishments, and how he’s grown has been special. Being able to see him grow, learn, and embrace adventure has been […]

We had our “Into the Woods” era this summer with Huston Performing Arts and then the high school performance after that. The kids are doing a competition in February and since they all know the songs, they are doing it a THIRD time! The music had constantly been in my head. Over and over again. […]

This year was special as both kids were in musical theater together. Slightly bittersweet as this will be the ONLY year they will be at school together as G is transferring to a different high school.

We had our 10yo and 8you yearly checkup yesterday. It went well. My 10yo is staying about the same on her weight chart which is what we have been watching. For awhile she was going down so the hunt for the perfect amount of calories a day was quite a struggle. So the 8yo jumps […]

Not to be outdone from yesterday’s post… I love this photo of GG and I. He is looking so sweetly into my eyes, while he plays with my hair. This photo reminds me of who he is right now. This boy is so sweet, so thoughtful, and he is insanely curious. While he […]

Do you see this face? This is one of my favorite faces. It’s made better by the HUGE grin on his face because he is doing Taekwondo. We finally signed him up! Hubby found a Yorba Linda Martial Arts Center near our house. We had actually been to another popular place with Sam a few times. […]
