Beginning August 1, 2010, Beaners Fun Cuts for Kids, along with the United Way, will be collecting funds and school supplies for children in need. We have about one month left of summer fun before our kids start heading back to school. Time to go shopping for new clothes and a hair cut. And new [...]

There’s something about a moving car that knocks little ones out. And once they drift off to sleep the constant battle begins.

Shortly after having Baby Bird, I started to get red, patchy skin on my hands and face. I immediately recognized it as eczema because I had it when I was younger. Baby Bird has had her eczema pretty much since birth and it seems to get worse when it’s hot out or if she is [...]

Dum-dum-da-dum!

July 22, 2010

I’m getting really excited and I just realized that I haven’t shared the great wonderful fantastic news with everyone here yet. My sister is getting married and we’re going to Las Vegas. In October my sister and brother-in-law (who is more like a brother anyway) are getting hitched in Sin City. Our whole family is [...]
