This particular moment at Epcot was just a glimmer of a sweet moment in a string of difficult days with Stevie during our recent (and first ever) trip to Walt Disney World. But we take what we can get, you know? We had just disembarked from the old and stuffy monorail, riding around Orlando in…
It’s been one of those anniversaries that started as any normal day. We woke up, checked our phones, grabbed our coffees, got Stevie ready for the day and then sat down in our kitchen nook at the table for a quick breather. We were chatting about the regular things married people chat about, when Paul…
While I’m glad it’s over, there’s no mistaking that when I look back on our summer as a whole, there were some good times. And I have to pat myself on the back a little bit! Because I made that happen. It’s not easy. Most days I would’ve rather hid in my air-conditioned room watching…
I will never stop saying “I can’t believe it’s __________”. Because I can’t. When the new year started, I couldn’t believe it. When the school year ended, I couldn’t believe it. And now being just weeks from the holidays… Well, I can’t believe it! Time is a real weird thing. Summer felt long, and yet,…
I feel like summer is practically half over since Stevie has already been out of school for month, but with the first offical day of summer upon us, I figured it’s as good a time as any for some new goals. Spring honestly got away from me somehow (which doesn’t even surprise me anymore) but…
If that glowing smile doesn’t say it all… This kid was in heaven. We are not ones to shy away from watching vehicles do their thing. Whether that’s sitting near the valet at a restaurant to watch them park, or pulling over to the side of the road to wait for a train to whiz…
Thanks for stopping in! Since we are well into Spring, let’s go ahead and check-in with some goals. W I N T E R G O A L S: Continue to reduce waste // Constantly working on this one. I have definitely cut back on my use of paper products in the kitchen, but somehow my…
You may or may not know that holidays with Stevie have always been really hard for us. Every holiday felt awful! They were hard for me, because leading up to whatever holiday lay ahead, I always tried to get in the spirit and Stevie was just not having it. It was a brutal reminder that…
Stevie and I have been to the California Science Center quite a few times. Not because he likes it, but because I’m a glutton for punishment. I always think maybe this time he will have fun? while the day typically ends quickly, with me leaving in a huff and him yelling about something. But would you…
When it comes to Disneyland, I am definitely outnumbered. My husband is not a fan of the cost or the amount of people. Stevie is very… meh about it, mostly scared of all the rides. (My fault since I traumatized him at Universal Studios a couple years ago.) But, by no small miracle, I am…
