I'm living my dream life, spending my days with my three sweet kids on the rocky coast of Maine...


boy2001 is a loveable 2nd grade LEGO brick master. An average week includes a round of golf, some time at the track with a smidgeon of Nintendo DS time.

boy 2001


girl2004 is a Care Bears enthusiast when she's not twirling to imaginary ballet, she's gleefully giggling to pink princess daydreams or requesting baking sessions.


girl2006 is an Elmo and Little People Fanatic, she insists on wearing tights and dresses everyday, as well as reading our 'I Love You' books everyday. She shares my love for Little House on the Prairie.


My personal goals are to go back to school for my Masters, possibly in Library Studies or Biblical Languages.


Smokey is our playful pup, half chihuahua, half rat terrier he's a handsome dog, although very good with the children Smokey does have his issues!


Chexter is our roborovski hamster, over a year old he's recently started to nip a little!

The Small but Mighty Pacific Shaving Company

Thanks to the FRN I’ve had the pleasure of testing some wonderful shaving products from Pacific Shaving Company!  I’ve been making a real effort to keep up with shaving, NOT a happy thing for me, but I’ve been wearing shorts a lot around the house so it’s a necessity!

The first product for review is nothing [...]

SeatSnug as a Bug in A Rug

This is a very important post and possibly could save the life of someone you love.  Anyone with older or bigger kids knows they can’t WAIT to get out of their car seats and into booster seats. 

If you’re like me, you were a bit hesitant to let them get into a booster but after a stint [...]

ceramic dalmations, knee-hi exposure on the boob tube

safe site for tween girls

When I see tween girls, I often think they’re growing up to fast.  Part of my life is spent looking through unrealistic images of women and I can’t help but think that it can get depressing.

New Moon Girls is a new community that is adult moderated and deemed safe for tweens (girls 8 [...]

not in the best of moods

don’t you hate it when you sign your kids up for something…

then they don’t want to go anymore…

then you have to keep paying with “contracts” thrown in your face!

the sad part is the teacher is really great, just lousy class timing.

anywho, we’ll have to keep it up until the break.
