The Smith's: February 2010
http://thesandjsmith5.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 16, 2010. Here's another doozy. It's not that big of a deal, and I wish there was a way to make this long story short, but here goes. I have a child that likes to put off homework until the last minute. I know I'm probably the only one who has this problem :). I'm not a fan of homework on the weekends, but her teacher sure is. Almost every weekend they have to write a spelling story and type it out. Well, it takes her forever because she's not a typer yet! I have a story to do! Steve an...

The Smith's: Another L and L Momment
http://thesandjsmith5.blogspot.com/2010/01/another-l-and-l-momment.html
Friday, January 29, 2010. Another L and L Momment. Steve chimes in."Mom likes to help do hair for people who help with chores". Can you imagine what comes next? Steve repeats in the smoothest tone, "Sweetie, mom likes to do hair for.". Hormones kick in and screaming fit, stomping and slamming door etc. 10 secs later, a calmer Sadie says, "Mom, could you please do my hair? I can't go to school like this.". Be kinda funny, I wouldn't mind putting your hair in a bun.". I DON'T WANT A BUN! Sadie :) After she...

The Smith's: July 2009

Friday, July 24, 2009. Tyson is 8 years old! He woke up Sunday and said, "I'm finally 8! I've been waiting for this day forever! A few days before his birthday I let him take a few of his friends to "X-treme Play" He said it was the funnest place ever! The boys of the neighborhood. Funny they all have blond hair, blue eyes. Even Sadie had a great time. Tyson's favorite meal is breakfast, so we had waffles, pancakes, bacon, sausage, eggs. Yummy! It's not perfect, but it was so fun to do, and was a big hit!

The Smith's: October 2009
http://thesandjsmith5.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 30, 2009. Way back in January, I won a weeks stay in Maui. We finally were able to go a couple weeks ago. My mom, and Steve's family juggled our kids for the week. So we were able to go just the two of us. I put the whole album on facebook with explanations of each picture, but here are a few of my favorites. Maui is as green as you can imagine. With many natural wonders. We took a ton of hikes, here is one that led down to this blowhole. The ocean was angry this day. Just "Drinkin it in".

Thursday, December 30, 2010. Love and Logic Classes. Steve and Jenny Smith. Becoming a Love and Logic Parent Curriculum. A six-week parenting program designed by Love and Logic. How do I get them out of bed in time to catch the school bus? How can I stop my children from bickering and fighting? How do I get my children to help with the chores without an argument? Is there a way to discipline my toddler in public without creating a scene? How do I get him to stop spitting his peas and whining at dinner?

The Smith's: Budding Artist
http://thesandjsmith5.blogspot.com/2010/03/budding-artist.html
Monday, March 1, 2010. It's 9:00pm and I think my kids are asleep.Tyson appears and says, "Mom, I need to get a piano in my room" Why Tyson? Because I have a tune in my head and I need to put it on sheetmusic before I forget it" OH, can I cry now? This is such music to my ears! That is so cute and so awesome! I have been helping Caitlynn with her biography report on Mozart, and he was doing things like that early on in life.you may just have a musical genius in your midst! March 2, 2010 at 9:41 AM.

Sunday, January 18, 2009. Steve and I just celebrated our 11th anniversary, my mom (bless her soul) took the kids over night. So Steve and I went out to dinner to my favorite restaurant. Olive Garden and to a movie. It was so nice not to worry about getting home! Even nicer to be able to sleep in! I can't believe we've been married 11 years! Yet it seems like I've always been with him. Here's 11 reasons why I love Steve:. 1 He is my best friend. Oriented- he knows so much. 3 He's a great listener. Ev...

http://thesandjsmith5.blogspot.com/2010/03/spring-ball-begins.html
Tuesday, March 2, 2010. I know I'm in for it this season. I wouldn't do this to myself if I didn't enjoy it so much. All 3 kids are signed up for ball. Sadie's in Minors, Tyson is in Coach Pitch and Hailee is starting Tee Ball. I miss playing softball- (which is such an understatement! I'm just so glad my kids love playing! I love watching them! Here's to a great season.PLAY BALL! I have got all three playing this year too. In Albuquerque, they are practicing four days a week! March 3, 2010 at 1:46 PM.
