It’s that time again. Post-baby and trying to figure out what I want to do to get back into my jeans, as far as exercise goes. We had a stinkin’ flood in the home gym that is under massive repairs right now, so that’s not an option. I’ve got 6 little ones and a husband…
This is the current state of my playroom… … times that by five, and you’ll have the whole picture. Wanna see the girl’s bedroom?? No, you don’t. I promise. It doesn’t matter how much my girls clean up, how many motivating lectures I give, how much they get in trouble, how great the reward is…the…

Put a bunch of healthy, boring food on a skewer, and you instantly have a yummy snack that they kids are excited about! It’s almost what one would call…amazing.

To read about my latest motivation chart, that encourages my kids to read, read, read, stop by Make and Takes (where I contribute regularly)! In the meantime, here’s some of my kid’s latest and favorite books (most of my their favorite books happen to be the ones that I read aloud. I don’t know if…
This past week, I’ve been preparing for a talk I have to give at church tomorrow, Father’s Day. My father and the father of my children/husband are both very important to me, so I’ve been trying to sort this talk out in a way that does them justice…without being a bawl-baby the whole time. While…
Hi there! I’m Veronica and I’m the really happy mom of nine amazing kids, blogging over at Nine a Plenty. (I usually take the pictures, so this photo of me with one of them will have to do!) We have a busy, crazy life, but it’s the best one around. I’m not the most clever…
Eeek! Is this the busiest week of your life, too?!? Between just getting back from a trip to the Oregon Coast, 3 kids in baseball, end of school festivities, dance recital madness, and a baby with a fever…I’m pooped. It almost looks like my son is in jail, in his orange jumpsuit. My sweet baby…
