Like most moms, I am not a fan of cleaning the toilets in our home. It's a nasty job that can't be avoided any less than twice a month. When I learned there was a new product from Scrubbing Bubbles available, I jumped at the chance to try it in my home. Any product that keeps my hands out of the toilet is a blessing in my opinion. About two weeks ago we received the Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic … [Read more...]
The other day our family went to a birthday party at my sister's house ... my niece turned the big 12! On a side note, it's crazy how quickly those kids are growing up. It seems like it was just yesterday that she was a toddler and now she's nearly as tall as me. So anyways, this time of year we get a ton of cicadas (big, ugly, loud bug in the trees). You can hear them all day and all night buzzing … [Read more...]

Or I should say corndoggy. In case you missed my collection of State Fair Sweet and Savory Eats over at Oh My! Sugar High, here's a little miniaturized recap. But I highly suggest venturing over to the other blog to see them in full view, they're worth it! Since yesterday was Mattison's first full day of school, we decided to take the girls out for a day at the Illinois State Fair. We just … [Read more...]
Wow, this has been a crazy three days. Just the other day the Springfree trampoline was delivered and we started on day 1 of installation. What should only take 2 hours from start to finish, actually has taken us 3 days due to excessive heat. So I left off by setting up the frame and legs. Day two started with replacing a bolt that my husband accidentally stripped. I will not rehash my back and … [Read more...]

Jon will never ever admit this is him under that princess diaper, but I assure you this is my goofy husband. A lot of people don't get to see the "daddy side" of his personality. Typically the people that meet my husband are either on the receiving end of a traffic ticket, in handcuffs or taking orders from him. So I'd say we're pretty lucky to get to see the goofball that wears diapers on his head … [Read more...]
As the years pass and the kids grow older, I find the my accumulation of baby gear and toddler toys is slowly starting to take over my house. Friends have suggested that I sell it all at a yard sale, but honestly, that's a lot of work between sorting, labeling and not to mention littering my front yard with heaps of baby gear for an entire weekend. One alternative that I recently found is TradingCradles.com, … [Read more...]
If you were to ask me what my most dreaded household chore is I'd tell you ... all of them laundry. It's a dirty job, no pun intended. I've got my husband's uniforms wreaking of sweat, son's jeans caked with mud, daughter's dresses with dribbles of chocolate milk and my toddler's outfits stained with pretty much anything and everything she touched, spilled and soiled that particular day. And of course … [Read more...]
