My Girl

Posted on 13 August 2008 by MommyKnows

Ahh, just look at my girl …

Lizzy
She’s quietly sorting sea shells. No doubt she’s dreaming of all the wonderful creations she could make. IF her mother allowed glue and paint and crafts (aka HUGE frickin’ mess), more frequently than the semi-annual 1/2 hour craft making sessions she has scheduled now.

Then again, maybe she’s just thinking about all the fun she had collecting them. YEAH, I am pretty sure that’s it (crafts-schmafts).

So what about you all? Do you do a lot of crafty things with (or without) the kids??

MommyKnows is on the Road …

Posted on 21 July 2008 by MommyKnows

4 Moose
4 Bear
3 Deer

All spotted in the ditch by MK. The Nikon was in my suitcase, so I had to take photo’s with my little Fuji point and shoot. I didn’t take one decent photo. They’re all horrible, but here’s a nice BIG blurry moose for you anyway. I swear the Nikon will be in my lap all day tomorrow.

MommyKnows on the Road

We’re in a dumpy motel in Prince George, B.C. I suppose the best part is the fact that I am in Prince George and it has nothing to do with tree planting. I believe that’s a first.

Anybody want a take a guess at our final destination? There might be a prize …

Tired, Sore …

Posted on 02 April 2008 by MommyKnows

Tired, sore, wind and sun burnt. That’s just the tip of the ice berg (pun intended).

I am shuffling around barely able to walk! I bought new boots this a.m., they are making me use muscles I didn’t know I had. I am starting to seize up—REALLY!

Sunshine - Banff National Park

I wish I could put you all on the top of the mountain, so you could see this in person. It sounds hoaky, but it makes you feel just a little closer to God. It’s breath-taking! My Fuji-pix just doesn’t do it justice.

Wish you were here.

Baby Come Back … (one last day for mini-Contest)

Posted on 16 March 2008 by MommyKnows

Georgia’s away for the weekend. I miss her (but I also enjoy the break).

Baby Come Back ...
I snapped this picture as we loaded the mom-mobile up for the drive to Grandma’s (& Poppa’s).

I’ll be happy to have her home tomorrow, although I feel no guilt leaving her with my parents. It’s the one place besides home where I know she comes first and that she is loved. My mom says, “she is a perfect angel”. Hmmmf, doesn’t sound quite like ‘my’ Georgie!

The worst part is … she’ll demand a full pancake, egg and bacon breakfast the first few days she is home. She gets a bit spoiled.

Re-training begins tomorrow!

Do your kids spend much time with their grand parents?

All commenters will be entered to win a pair of Bical Grippers. I will randomly draw a winner on Monday, March 17th, 2008.

    I am loving this *spoon-fork-knife* combo from Light My Fire! Perfect for picnics, hiking and school lunches. My house needs a case of *Sporks*. Stylish, environmentally friendly and smart ... sounds just like me.
