My Ordinary Miracles

  Well, it’s that time again for International Comment Leaving Week that Stirrup Queen sponsors each month! If you stumbled here from the ICLW list, welcome!! I will tell you a bit about myself.
 
I am a mom of 3 ordinary miracles! I call them that because while it may be ordinary for most of the [...]

   Well I made it! My summer vacation officially started last Friday afternoon and I couldn’t be happier! I now have more time to dedicate to this blog and I hope to attract more readers too!
   This trimester was difficult to juggle the full time job, my 3 kids 3 and under, the household and [...]

   So, my mind is so heavy with thoughts…I’m feeling so overwhelmed, my right eye has actually been twitching for the past few days. Does stress cause twitching? Does anyone know? It’s driving me crazy!
   My poor kids have been so sick the past 2 weeks. First, Ella had a bad stomach virus last week that [...]

  Happy ICLW! WELCOME! In case you don’t know what that stands for, it’s International Comment Leaving Week! I’m hopin’ to get more readers and promisin’ to check out some new ones. So, if you’re here to follow…here’s a little about me: I’m an infant twin raising, (along with a) toddler raising, potty-training, memoir writing, 1st grade [...]

    So my cabin fever broke today because I…went out…with my bum limping foot…WITH the kids…wait for it…BY MYSELF! That’s right! After spending the last few months practically homebound, this was the first time I took them out on my own without being with someone or help (except for the few minutes Ella, my oldest, rode around [...]

  
   Well I’m sure I’m not the only frantic,  exhausted, ”busy” mom out there so I thought I’d share a quick,  stress-free recipe that I made last night: Angel Hair and Pesto Sauce. It took a total of 10 minutes between prepping (taking out pots, opening the box/package), cooking, and serving.
    Simply cook the Angel Hair [...]

   
    So I thought that I was pretty good at multi-tasking before the chaos (a.k.a. before the day the twins came). But since they’ve arrived, the word has taken on a whole new meaning. I blog & feed, network & burp, and soothe & rock while successfully making waffles. I’ve even managed to figure out how [...]
