Starr Family: Party of Five: October 2012
http://thankyourluckystarrs.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Starr Family: Party of Five. Thursday, October 25, 2012. Today was ordinary. It felt routine. Felt like life. And as I get ready for bed tonight in realizing I don't ever want to forget this day. Throughout the day the kids rotate through my attention. Sometimes their needs feel choreographed and I accomplish one after another successfully. Other times it doesn't go as well. Like when Sam needs me and Mason wants an early lunch and suddenly Eli is announcing he wants to use the potty. We grabbed dinner f...

Starr Family: Party of Five: September 2013

Starr Family: Party of Five. Friday, September 6, 2013. Lower your expectations.and then lower them again. I heard this piece of advice about expectations recently. It was in a list of advice to mothers and how to deal with the demands of life. When I first heard it, I hated it. I balked and said well that's a great attitude. How about aiming high, doing your best, never give up? Then it got stuck in my head and I mulled it over a bit. Maybe it's good advice after all. I have a five year old? I was in a ...

Little Lucky: om nom nom
http://littleluckystarr.blogspot.com/2012/01/om-nom-nom.html
Tuesday, January 17, 2012. When I can't find something, I prefer to say "Eli ate it" than admit I'm getting absent minded. He eats so much more than Mason. We like to tease Mason that someday his brother will be bigger and stronger than him and then he'll get him. That was a bad idea. Now Mason seems to be trying to fit in all his bullying now while he has the chance. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Click pic for big brother's site. I think i am a crazy mom.

Starr Family: Party of Five: Month of pictures
http://thankyourluckystarrs.blogspot.com/2014/01/month-of-pictures.html
Starr Family: Party of Five. Sunday, January 26, 2014. Oh the frustrations. I've been looking forward to sitting down and doing a really good post about what we've been up to. I've even been keeping notes and reminders of things I wanted to make sure I included. I finally have a bit of time and some quiet (I'll be peace) and of course.I can't find my notes. Double frustrating because I've been working really really. Sam doesn't want to cooperate. I finally gave him front row seat and a stack of books...

Little Lucky: eli sandwich
http://littleluckystarr.blogspot.com/2012/03/eli-sandwich.html
Friday, March 23, 2012. Jason and Mason we're playing around on the little dirt bike. Instead of being alarmed at the noise, Eli just wanted to be part of the fun. We sandwiched him between his dad and brother and he stopped fussing, just held on for the ride. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Click pic for big brother's site. Spaghetti eddie 2.0.

Little Lucky: i think i am a crazy mom
http://littleluckystarr.blogspot.com/2012/01/i-think-i-am-crazy-mom.html
Saturday, January 21, 2012. I think i am a crazy mom. I remember- prekids- hearing crazy moms talk about their kids. I never really really understood what was so cute about the things they said or what was so fascinating about their.um.diaper details. So yeah. I am a crazy mom. And I love my kids. And their socks.

Starr Family: Party of Five: Here's to fresh starts:
http://thankyourluckystarrs.blogspot.com/2014/01/heres-to-fresh-starts.html
Starr Family: Party of Five. Sunday, January 5, 2014. Here's to fresh starts:. Oh, happy happy New Year. I can fully admit that I’m typically more jaded and cynical about this time of year, but fortunately the fresh start of January perfectly coincided with my own attitudes and ambitions. So far, I’m going to label this year a winner. Moments that make the rest of it worth it. Speaking of church, here’s Eli on his first day of Sunbeams. I want to keep him with me. Like, forever. Would you think it’...

Starr Family: Party of Five: today
http://thankyourluckystarrs.blogspot.com/2012/06/today.html
Starr Family: Party of Five. Wednesday, June 13, 2012. After breakfast I told the boys that we were skipping chores. All they had to do was brush their teeth and we'd go to the park. Mason was overly grateful and profuse in his praise of my kindness. Eli just kept shouting "side side side" (meaning outside). Mace picked Park Discovery and I'm glad we headed over early since it was hot and getting hotter. Here are the boys all flushed and sweaty:. My favorite parts of the morning:. By the time we got home...
