This year Johnny turns 11. He's in the 5th grade. That alone should tell you where we are with the dramatics. Everything is becoming a big deal. Last year was the beginning of the changes but this year it's on and it's strong. I try to do all I can to be support and help him realize and distinguish the things that are important and the ones that he shouldn't bother with. It's the first year in … [Read more...]

Pregnancy Update 12 Weeks [with pic]
By 8 Comments
The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, her toes will curl, her eye muscles will clench, and her mouth will make sucking movements. In fact, if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although you won't be able to feel it. Her intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will … [Read more...]
Supernatural: Season 6 on DVD
Season 6 of Supernatural was nothing like its previous seasons. The previous seasons of this show were case by case demon stories that they would go across the country and handle. Rarely were they connected to each other and rarely did they have to deal with the same people other then their team.

Lately, I've been wanting to feature some awesome things on my blog that have been going on in the blogosphere. I've even seen websites built around featuring other people's blog posts. When I talk to other bloggers about this I get mixed reactions on what is and isn't acceptable. For example: I would love to make these amazing caramel dipped apples.

Wordless Wednesday My Fall Decor Splurge
By 46 Comments

While my table is set for four, I actually bought six settings since … [Read more...]
