Our Pei-Wei Dining Experience

Pei-Wei is one of our favorite restaurants to go to as a family.  The food is incredible, and it’s kind of a loud place, so the kids’ silliness doesn’t disturb anyone.  It is, however, a challenge at times to keep all four kids out of trouble while we wait in line to order our food…. [continue reading]

The Baby Monitor: Friend or Foe?

Night after night I had been getting little sleep.  Jason Jr. was coughing so much in his sleep that he would wake up every little while crying.  One night I woke up because I heard him through the baby monitor yelling, “Mama, mama, mama.”   I listened for a minute, but didn’t hear any coughing. I… [continue reading]

Shopping With Husband and Children–My Bright Idea

“Let’s go to Costco!” I said to Jason on Saturday. I looked at myself. I was dressed in something other than my house work uniform, my hair was brushed, and I was actually wearing makeup. It was definitely a day to go out on the town. I said, “We can go look around, get samples,… [continue reading]

Family Vacation

Being a family of six and living a day’s drive from both sides of our family have made taking a vacation a challenge.  A couple of years ago we decided that we’d incorporate some vacation type things into the visit with our family. We rented a condo with my parents for two nights at the… [continue reading]

Prayer Request for my Little Boy

My little boy has been coughing and running a fever.  He had the problem for a couple of weeks, but got better.  Then last week it all came back again. Sunday morning when I got him up to take him to church, he had thrown up in his bed.  I kept him home and decided… [continue reading]

Valentine’s Day Meals: 5 Course Family Dinner

Valentine’s Day 2011 (Our Family Celebration) Breakfast: Krispy Kreme heart shaped donuts.  Does it get any better than this? Lunch: It was Faith’s idea to have a Pink, Purple, and Red meal. This meal was only mildly successful.  I had a really hard time finding purple food.  The only things I could think of were… [continue reading]

A Boy and His Mama

This little boy sure melts my heart.  Everyone told me it would happen. The other day I put some overalls on him.  He came downstairs crying.  I didn’t know what the matter was until finally he pointed at his pants that had come unsnapped.  “Oh here, let me fix that for you.” “Fix for you,”… [continue reading]

Funny Kids Quotes #6

When I brought my youngest home from the hospital, the girls were all wide eyed with interest and full of questions.  I was nursing the baby when Joy, who was only four at the time, watched for a minute and then proclaimed, “Mom!  It’s like…you’re the mama cow!” Jason Jr. was born in October and… [continue reading]

Fun in the Snow

My husband’s grandfather passed away on Thursday so we packed up and headed to Nebraska.  It seems like we have had more than our share of death in the last year, but I’ll keep this post light! The kids were amazed at all the snow!  We got out of the van and began making our… [continue reading]

A Boy and His Sucker

Jason took the kids through the bank drive through.  The teller, seeing a slew of kids, grabbed a whole hand full of Dum-dums and sent them time traveling  through to the van. At the store my little boy was so happy to have his sucker.  After he finished it, he kept repeating, “Suck-er,” over and… [continue reading]
