Does This Make Me a Helicopter Parent? 26 Aug 2013 | 03:00 pm
The other day I took the kids to the lake, mainly because it was finally warm enough to do so. When we go to the lake, or a playground, we have an unspoken rule that if a sibling is playing with frien...
Friday I'm in Love: On the Interwebs 23 Aug 2013 | 03:00 pm
Stuff I love on the internet: I always thought Donors Choose was a great idea, and now a friend of mine is participating! I've known her since she was a student teacher - and I swear she's still got ...

Pop Culture Thursday: Da Plane! Da Plane! 15 Aug 2013 | 02:00 pm
I really hope you read the title in your best Tattoo from Fantasy Island voice. So last week - on the day it opened - we saw Planes. We don't see movies in the theater very often, but Cars is a fam....

This summer has been more of a staycation kind of summer. In addition to regular trips to our town's pool, we've been doing a lot of bowling (have you checked out kidsbowlfree.com?). Lovebug waits pa...
