Over at It’s A Blog Eat Blog World the meme of the day is 2 or number two.I have 2 beautiful children. A boy (Handsome) and a girl (Goddess) who are my world. My maternal instincts would love more than 2. I would love to have at least 1 more but 2 is the number my husband rooted for. My Life has been so full of 2’s2 pets no longer with me2 parents who sheltered and fed me2 sisters who couldn’t be more different2 best friends, who says you can on

So yesterday I wrote about going back to SparkPeople and trying to stick with the whole thing.I logged my food yesterday and came up about 200 calories short for the day.Today my lunch put me over the top. It wasn’t a big lunch by any means but it was pizza and according to Sparkpeople my 2 slices of pepperoni pizza bring me 200 calories over the recommended allowance.The pizza was homemade and the calories logged on Spark are for 2 slices of pepperoni pizza period. I am not sure if that means from a greasy pizzeria or if that means making your own pizza with your own flour, yeast,...

I love that Handsome is writing.He taught himself back in April of last year when he showed me a “W” that he had written on a Magna Doodle. Over the year he taught himself to write many words. Lately he writes XBox and Charlie (from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and a few months ago it was Spy Kids along with all his other words (his name, blue, dog, cat, bird, bat, etc).This year for Valentines day we made a heart for Daddy and then he wrote “I love you Daddy” with a little picture that he said was Daddy. Ummm..looks nothing like him but if he says so.

Weighing In Back in July I joined a great site called Spark People. I loved it and checked in daily for the first 2 weeks. Then the summer got away from me, school started, Christmas shopping, my son’s anxiety about leaving me that came out of left field, tons of crap and before you know it we are in February.Ummm…was it really July that I was there last?Anyway I signed in again today and started logging my food for the day (One of the best features about the site as far as I am concerned) when it dawned on me how little I pay attention to my food intake. I love that this site...

Here is a list of my favorite pre-school homeshool idea websites in no particular order.About 3-5 days a week I hold “Mommy School” for my 2 and 4 year old.

Who knows, you all might learn a thing or two.DLTK’s - DLTK’s is always the first place I go to for an organized craft idea. Check them out, they have loads of fun things for kids to do.Apples 4 The Teacher- Has so much on it that I have yet to get through all of it before I decide on the...

Potty training the Goddess has been done for a week.There has been no accidents during the day or at night and we have been diaper-less for three weeks now. I can’t believe it!I know I said this when I was potty training Handsome but, man that was easy. Handsome took 2 months from beginning to end but only 2 weeks of actual training.Goddess has been an interesting subject to say the least. She started on her own when she was 1.5 years old but since she was so little I let her lead. If she wanted to we did and if not we let it go. There was also the smart poop story where...

Two weeks ago, someone I know, “Nurse” asked if I was interested in doing a play-date with our boys. We live on the same street and talk occasionally. Our boys are about 6 months apart in age with her boy, let’s call him Rush for story sake, being the older one. She also has a 2.5 year boy, let’s call him Linebacker because he is just such a big boy.Nurse sent Rush to me for an hour on that first play-date because her little one wasn’t feeling well. I really wasn’t sure if the play-date should happen because if Linebacker was...
