Bad timing

I woke up with the most unpleasant inability to swallow due to a nasty sore throat. Great. We have a trip planned in less than 3 days and I am not going to spend our first weekend away in ages being sick. I took inventory - no orange juice, no airborne, no zicam, no way [...]

Roadtrip

Friday can’t get here soon enough. I booked hotel reservations today for a weekend in Pittsburgh. Kyle finally took some time off of work and we are going to have a family getaway (he doesn’t know it yet, but I’m forcing him to leave his computer at home). The only downside is that I have [...]

Calgon, take me away…

We had a group run this morning that did not require the usual 6:30 weekend wake-up call, thanks to it’s 3 mile distance from my front door (as opposed to the usual 30-40 minute drive). I was stuggling from the run yesterday (my legs were pretty sore), and the 5 other women I ran with [...]

Yeah, that’s a mohawk…

Cut & Style Originally uploaded by kyleroth.
A subtle one. A full-blown version would have required longer hair on top (and even shorter hair on the sides, so I guess it really isn’t a mohawk at all), and Kade just had a buzz cut a few weeks ago so that just wasn’t possible.
I am lovin it, [...]

Thankful Thursday

I’m thankful that Liv is still sleeping and has been since 12:30 last night. My boobs are not as thankful, as they are on the verge of exploding (yet one more thing that breastfeeding mothers and cows have in common).
I’m thankful that my family is always there to help me out. Just the thought [...]

Hiatus

I spent a few days in Sandusky. Kyle needed to work on some stuff around the house, so I decided to get the kids out of his hair and head home. It was a nice break, and it’s always great to spend some time with family. Oh, and the sub-zero temperatures did not impede my [...]

The countdown begins…

The birthday party supply catalog came in the mail on Wednesday, and Kade has been in planning mode ever since. This isn’t just any magazine…no, this is THE magazine - the one that he has me “read” to him before every nap and at bedtime every evening, the one that he literally sleeps with (because [...]

Newsflash

Liv just rolled over from her back to her belly for the first time, and of course…I missed it (further evidence of the conspiracy theory I told you about). I laid her on a blanket on her back with a few toys around her while I went down to switch loads of laundry, and when [...]

Another Thankful Thursday

I’m thankful my friend Brian is an admirer of Martha Stewart because she supplied him with a killer truffle recipe that put good ole’ lady Godiva to shame. Those chocolate balls were amazing, Brian. If you weren’t such a kick-a** designer, I’d tell you to go into the baking business - yes people, they were [...]
