First Day of Pre-School
Brenda and I were both excited and nervous to take the boys to their first day of school. It seems like just yesterday they couldn’t even hold their own bottle and now they’re going to school 3 days a week for full days. We thought maybe they would cry when we left, but they did […]
Good Times at the Pumpkin Patch
. This past Saturday we didn’t know what to do with the boys. The weather wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great. We had spent the previous weekend at the mall since the weather was so nasty, but didn’t feel like being indoors again. So while we were all at breakfast (our Saturday tradition now after […]
Super Nanny Maria, One Door Closes & Another Opens
It was just over a year ago that we were, on very short notice, in need of a new Nanny after having one that just didn’t work out after only 2 weeks on the job, and another one before her that quit with no notice. This was one of those times that when you look […]
Fire Station Open House
This past weekend we took the boys to the local Wheaton Fire Station #1 for their annual open house. I have to admit, while the initial idea was to take them, I really looked forward to it as well. I think the last time I was at a Fire House was in 3rd grade when […]

While I can’t remember what I did yesterday, […]
IT’S A GIRL!
At least that’s what we’re hoping… but we’re still sticking to not knowing. I just wanted to get your attention. Actually we will be happy no matter what, our real focus is on just having a healthy baby. But the real news to report is that we have a birthday for this new little one. […]
Oprah Season 24 Kick-Off
Just one more reason that I LOVE Chicago. I’ve traveled far and wide to some great cities, but always feel excited when I come home. While I grew up in Michigan, this is my home now. If you didn’t catch it, this is the open to the 24th season of Oprah. They shut down one […]
Better Health Starts Today
It’s not about losing weight (well, not totally) and it’s not really a diet, it’s about living longer and being healthy in my later years. It’s about changing the way I eat as part of my lifestyle. What you eat and the amount of your daily physical activity play a huge role in how well […]
Weekend Photos from Millennium Park
We had an awesome day downtown with the boys. The weather was great, and love him or hate him Mayor Daily sure knows how to create a beautiful public park. There’s always something to do down there, even with our little guys. Here are a few photos, and the rest are on SmugMug.
