Setting the bar even lower- Yes, it is possible to argue and come to mini-fisticuffs over proper singing over ‘Away in a manger.’ #boys  (Taken with instagram)

Polar Express, twinkling lights and lots off Apple love. I’m hiding in the kitchen with some hot tea and enjoying the momentary peace. Hope your weekend is great! Everyone OK out there? {It’s odd to be offline on the weekends by the way. Can you tell?} 🌃 (Taken with instagram)

My desk after a very long week. Yes, it’s a mess and I have too many electronics on at once. My apologies to all the organized neatniks out there. I promise I’ll try to organize this weekend for you. Do not have heart attacks. Deep breaths, Type A friends, deep breaths. #85daysUntilBlissDom Good night beautiful people. xoxo  (Taken with instagram)

Interesting thing about motherhood. You learn to be OK with enjoying 2 minutes of them playing together and tolerate the 58 minutes they spend fussing over ice skating rink placement. Learning to relish the good and let the bad roll off your back is the challenge. I’m working on it…  Always working on it. ;) (Taken with instagram)

No context. Random observation in Drs waiting room. :)

“Hey Mom, if the Dr. doesn’t get in here soon. I’m gonna kick the door!” My thoughts exactly… ;) (Taken with instagram)

Somehow my love of thrifting has morphed into a massive collection of Christmas houses & towns. I must have 20. My youngest breaks a few every Christmas, but that’s part of it. Also, it helps to forgive him when you only pay $2 for each house ;) Also, how did I become an old lady who collects light up Christmas town pieces? (Kanye Shrug)  (Taken with instagram)

I do not like them in a house. I do not like them with a mouse… He listens to the book all the time.  Story book iPad apps really are worth it. I’m very impressed!  (Taken with instagram)
