Saturday, July 11, 2009. These photos are from his Family Fun Night and the party in the park on the last day. Phillip attempting humor;). Here are photos from his graduating to the next level and his group that went through a special religion piece this spring. Frolicking in the fountain. Oh my gosh it is July! We are getting RJ ready to head off to scout camp. This is the first year he does an overnight. He will be gone for three days and two nights. I am so excited! Here are a few photos. Don't walk b...

Mama E: July 2010
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 17, 2010. Okay, the super short of it. We got a new puppy! Penny is Phillip's Fathers Day present. She is an English Bulldog. She is 5 months old. She is the joy of the family since losing Hammie. Passed away this spring. It was very hard but he was 11 years old. We missed him desperately and knew that we had to go in a different direction with breed. So Phillip got his dream dog. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Mama E: January 2012
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 26, 2012. Yes, I have been cooking. Some dishes I have cooked well. There were some enchiladas in there somewhere. Today was very enlightening though. I made some pork chops that were cooked well, tasted well and the boys thought they were great. They were however done before the rest of the side dishes so they were a few minutes overcooked. Not dry. Stove you VEX ME! Thoughts during the experience:. Pickled ginger goes bad? Note to self, check the pickles in the garage fridge. Alum and...

Mama E: September 2009
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 4, 2009. Well, leave it to the Federal Government to generally mess things up and make life complicated. In applying for my passport (since you need one now to renew your driver license and do everything but sneeze) I learned that I was not a legal citizen of the U.S. And due to the luck of all things that are Heather, I was neither one of Canada where I was born. Mercy! Here are the photos! Signing my name on EVERYTHING. Me and my Certificate. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Mother's love ...

Mama E: August 2009
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 22, 2009. They were standing on a sign that said "Keep Off". I took the boys camping last week. Since Phillip so eloquently puts it, "God did not intend for me to camp", it was just the three of us. Oh and the cousins. We spent two nights at Barview Jetty just outside of Tillamook. It only sprinkled one night so it was an odd trip, usually we get rained out! We spent three hours at the Air Museum and finally left because Kate and I couldn't take another minute. Who knew! I have to say I ...

Mama E: Guilt
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2013/03/guilt.html
Friday, March 1, 2013. This has become an Olympic Sport in our house. Trained as I was in the art of second guessing, door mat and self-loathing. I would make a good Catholic I think, if I could manage the kneeling. Is it too much? Do I need to do more? Do I need to do less? Did I say the right thing? How do I recover from saying the wrong thing? Did I hug them enough today? Is it wrong that I can't stand one more person using me as a jungle gym? I just can't get enough of my kids, is that okay too?

Mama E: Birthday Party Lament
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2013/05/birthday-party-lament.html
Friday, May 31, 2013. How hard can a birthday party be really? They are all under 5 ft tall, have unrefined taste buds and well, they are kids. Come on, how hard can I make this on myself? Pretty darned impossible, unreasonable and just down right ridiculous. Dropped the egg shell into the batter. Awesome. I had the oven set for 200 because of the pretzels I was making (? I will buy a damn cake! But wait, there is a way to mess that up too! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A sporatic look into the bus...

Thursday, January 7, 2010. I am a bad, bad girl. I haven't been on this since August! I promise. I got my camera fixed and will be better. Tomorrow. For now, well, it just is how it is.

Mama E: WHAT?
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2013/02/what.html
Tuesday, February 19, 2013. NO way has it been a year! Okay, so Jess, here is my first post and it is lame because I am at work and my camera is at home charging and I have nothing witty to say. Yet. I have mastered chili this year. Evidenced by the empty pot from a scouting event. Although I have been informed that teenage boys eat anything, I still count that as a mastered dish. Ooh, I did make meatloaf this last week and it was edible! We are off and running! February 19, 2013 at 6:10 PM. Cheers to a ...

Mama E: Mama Love
http://mamaerwin.blogspot.com/2013/03/mama-love.html
Thursday, March 14, 2013. I tell the kids all the time that when they are naughty or I am angry I love them the most/more then ever. That being said, there are times like this morning where I have to meet with a teacher before school/work and all I want to do is cry my eyes out and tell them to stop picking on my kid; while at the same time telling my kid to knock it off and stop picking on their teacher. Hang in there, Heather, you are a wonderful mama! March 14, 2013 at 12:31 PM. There is nothing sadde...
