Post Written on the Way to #toyfair…Just found…Ooopsie!
Observations from my day…so far Going to bed at 8:05 p.m. when you are an adult is just wacky. But, it is a good idea if you have to be up and at ‘em for a 4:29 a.m. train to #toyfair! Going to bed BEFORE your children is just strange. Not being able to sleep right away... »
Where Am I This Week?
Let’s start with where I was last week. This week is all about recovering from taking the train to New York and flying to and from Houston. New York was awesome. I met a niche toy company. This company have a line of dolls for girls aged 1 to 3. The dolls are super cute.... »
Reflections on a Good Day of Volleyball
It’s a fact that I am a Volleyball Mom who is not the least bit sporty. I have three kids and a husband who more than make up for my shortcomings by being extremely sporty. The teen plays volleyball. She swims in the summer…somewhat under duress. The tween plays volleyball AND swims yearround…not under duress. The 6-year-old... »
Happy Valentine’s Day, Tween and Teen
Over the years I have made Valentine’s Day special for my kids. I help my children write/create/decorate Valentine’s for class parties. When my middle child was in preschool I was the coop parent at ALL parties — helping with games, serving food, and enjoying watching the little ones. I have provided snacks for parties. With my tween and... »
Make a Break for It: Snowbound in D.C.
Roads — Plowed. Driveway — Clear. Suitcases — Packed. Kids — Excited. Adults — Relieved. At the unseemly hour of 6 a.m. Coach Dad, the tween, and the teen, fired up the old SUV…loaded up the bags…packed the snacks…and headed out of Dodge. After almost a week snowbound, it was a blessing to be able to leave our home. Our... »
Birthday Party Ideas for Tweens
Some birthday party ideas that have worked for us: - My tween has an August bday. We held a party for her at the outdoor pool where we are members. Several of the guest were also members. I purchased a guest pass to cover the other kids. Since all tweens are dropped off, I did not... »
#snOMG or #Snopocalyse or #Snomageddon
Whatever way you slice it today will live on as the biggest snow in DC history. …until the next bad snow…maybe. Until that time we can enjoy…or bitterly accept that the snow was extraordinary. The children were on edge toward the end of the week. I had convinced the older two that school would indeed be... »
My Morning Routine…zzzzzzzzz
Husband tells me it is time to wake up…I sleep like the dead. I lie in bed until 6:20 a.m. when I know I need to get up or kids will be late for school. I get up and stagger to bathroom to brush my teeth. Teen and tween are already up getting dressed,... »
Review & Giveaway: SIMS Animals Africa for DS
The DS? I have no recollection the exact moment when I first saw one. But, I probably saw a kid sitting on the sidelines playing with one at (a) basketball practice, (b) soccer practice, or (c) swim practice. Practice can be long and boring for a younger sibling. My youngest started attending his sister’s sports... »
Review & Giveaway: SIMS ANIMALS Africa for wii
Two summers ago we purchased a wii. We were stuck at home in August…feeling a little sorry that we were not going on a big vacation trip in August. We did go to the beach in June of that year, but August was looming ahead with little planned. My husband is the original gamer in... »
