Did you know it’s Pi Day (3-14)? Are you planning to have any pie today? In honor of this magnificent day (and EIGHTY degree temps in Chicago…in March today – w00t, w00t!), I decided to make a batch of Apple Pie Pancakes. It’s a recipe I improvised based off of a standard pancake mix recipe. Apple Pie Pancakes Ingredients: 1… View Post
Homemade Yogurt Melts
After searching through Pinterest to find a recipe I loved, I didn’t. So instead, I mashed up a few different ones and created this based on different suggestions. If you have the ingredients at home, RUN to your kitchen and make these. If you don’t, RUN to the store and get them. These are a great (healthy) treat for you… View Post
Museum of Science & Industry
This past weekend, I won tickets to the Museum of Science & Industry, along with a sneak peak of their Mythbusters exhibit. We headed out with the boys and our friend, Julie for our first adventure to MSI in a VERY long time. We had a BLAST! Here are some pictures and I’ll give a quick recap at the end…. View Post
Memorial Park – Chicago Ridge
One of our favorite parks in Chicago Ridge is Memorial Park. With baseball diamonds, a huge field, and jungle gym equipment for the young and old in your crew, this park is a great way to spend an afternoon! Walking distance from both sets of grandparents, it’s easy to pop over there for a few hours to enjoy the day!… View Post
Remote Control Hummer!
This past Christmas, Charlie received a gigantic relatively small-sized remote control Hummer. Realizing that our two-bedroom condo would not do, we opted to leave this precious gem at Momma & Poppy’s for when the weather turned nicer. Yesterday, with 60+ degrees, daddy charged up the battery and off it went! The boys had a BLAST with it – and this… View Post

Twelve Years, Part I.
One of my favorite facts about my life is that I married my high school sweetheart. March 6th marks TWELVE years together. We have been together longer than my niece has been alive (by 22 days to be exact) and I could not imagine my life any other way. Some interesting tidbits about our life together thus far: ~Our first… View Post
PeeWee Sports:: Football
Up today was football! Charlie raced in ready to play and was met by Coach Bubba and Coach Alex. Coach Alex was new and about seven times the size of Coach Bubba. His voice was also 8 octaves lower. The two youngest boys (Charlie & Connor) just stared at him like he was a giant! He enjoyed kicking it the… View Post
First Park Day!
Recently, we have been blessed with some warmer temps and sunshine, so we embarked on our first official park trip of the season! The boys had a blast, although I’m not quite sure how Jack handled the wood chips… He thinks he’s seven years old…. A favorite slide! Brothers! (heading down the slide together)

Back Alley Burger:: Review
