Each year Grandma calls up to ask what the kiddos want for Christmas, and each year I'm at a bit of a loss for what to suggest. Crazy I know! My two youngest boys are still a bit small to create a wish list and when they look at the Sears Wish Book or commercials they just yell "I want that!" no matter what it is! My oldest who is six is a piece of cake, but for the little dudes it's a lot of guess work and we often just hit the toy store and pick from the shelves which is fine for us, but not … [Read more...]

Like most kids, I grew up watching Sesame Street! I adored Super Grover and Snuffy and had a soft spot even for Oscar the Grouch! This summer our family embarked on our first week long vacation, crossing the border and travelling to Pennsylvania to see the 'real Sesame Street' at Sesame Place!

We sat on the famous Sesame … [Read more...]

Funny Story- I used to babysit this adorable little girl and enjoyed testing her on animal sounds, 'what does a cow say?'. Her answers were so cute and she was rarely stumped, including when I threw a curve ball at her like 'what does a turtle say?' She gave it a thought, only for second, when she responded with 'cowabunga dude'! lol I … [Read more...]
