Navigating life as a pilot's wife and misadventurous mom.
Tweet Part of Perfect Moment Mondays… On Friday, Reagan rode in the St. Jude’s Trike-a-Thon with her preschool class. There was some pretty steep competition, but she held her own. The morning started with the competitors getting their game faces on. Followed by some bubble action to prepare for their slippery competition. Once they were [...]
Tweet Part of Perfect Moment Mondays… Among perfect moments, none is more perfect than those we spend with friends. So, on Saturday when we had the chance to spend the morning with our girlfriends at the Denver Children’s Museum, we were all about it. There was so much to do, see, explore… from trying on [...]
Tweet Part of Perfect Moment Mondays… Some of my favorite moments in my daughter’s life happen when I’m not even there. By design. Other special moments I’ve missed, I will grieve over, but these… I relish. Because it means a special bond is being built between the two people I love the most. A different [...]
Tweet As if Halloween the day before wasn’t enough of a treat, Reagan and I had a mommy-daughter day out last Sunday. We headed to Denver City park to soak up the sunshine and 60º temps after three days of snow had finally blown through and left a beautiful, white, sparkly blanket behind. There were [...]
Tweet Neither snow nor H1N1 can keep this family from our first real trick-or-treat outing for Halloween 2009. Reagan is at that perfect age where carving pumpkins, dressing up in colorful costumes and collecting candy door-to-door is actually feasible and fun: two-and-a-half. I know a lot of parents take their one-year-olds trick-or-treating, but I’ve always [...]
Tweet Last year was too soon, but surely my two-year-old would be ready for the circus this year, right? HA! I was lucky to get this picture of her at the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus: Zing Zang Zoom, Pre-show Clown College before she wriggled her way out of the jacket and her Daddy’s [...]
Tweet I never thought it would happen this early. But, I’m already suffering second-hand rejection issues on the part of my little girl’s heart. We all know there will come a day when our child is pushed out of a game of hopscotch or whispered about in the classroom. As we all were. And we’re [...]
Tweet Yes, that clown nose was Photoshopped in. And that costume wasn’t really one worn at Cirque Du Soleil. This is our living room and the costume is from Big Lots, but, this is the closest I could come to getting the shot I was hoping for at our exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Kooza. So [...]
Tweet Whatever the question, the answer is “NO!” Like most two-year-old’s, Princess Reagan has come with the 1985 mantra “Just say, no” already built in. A war of wills has been building for some time, and I have been desperately trying to stay on top. Up until a week or so ago, I chose to [...]
Tweet I’ve been toying with writing this post for days now. Not sure if I was comfortable exposing myself to the judgment that this topic brings with it. Fear of judgment seems to be a common theme in motherhood (see prior post here) and one that I’ve found myself embracing more and more since beginning [...]
