Oh dear…what to write about. (Warning: Complaining ahead. Continue at your own risk!)

I’m cranky. Have been since my birthday, last Friday. I had decided to relax for the day and just do basically whatever I wanted to do. I expected that the fruit would be able to handle doing their chores (after all, they’ve only been doing them for a year or more now) [...]

F6 walking

F6 is officially a walker. Here’s a scrapbook page that I did of him practicing on his 11 month birthday. So cute! I love how babies always hold their arms up when they are learning to walk. I took some adorable video of him this morning that I hope to [...]

So yesterday we were supposed to start up our school days again

after too long of a break. Of course, F6 didn’t go to sleep until about 1:30 and I didn’t open my eyes until 10:30 am. When I did, I browsed through my brain, looking for the schedule for the day. ‘Hmmm…January 8th…Monday.’ Runs tongue over teeth. ‘Boy, my mouth tastes like [...]

Mom’s Gone

She left this morning on an airplane to visit C and E for a month. Sigh. I already miss her. I know that she is going to have a very good time with my wonderful brother. I am so thankful that her trip went well, in spite of her arthiritis and the [...]

Happy New Year!!!

Well, it’s a new year and I’m looking foward to it. The last year held a lot of changes for us…F6 came, Mr. Nutt changed jobs and was gone for much of the summer due to said job change. Mom settled in with us. Our school year came in stops and starts, [...]
