-ing outside

May 30, 2009

Tumbling. Pondering. Floating. Considering. Dripping. Daydreaming. Being. Giving. Playing. I am super proud of that last shot. It really captures what Rhett looks like right now…he is always giving me THAT LOOK.

Be cool, stay in school

May 28, 2009

Here at the Nirvana we are into week 3 of summer. Yes, you read that correctly…week three. Of course, I only have one child actually in school and he only goes part-time (with part time home school) so you would think…what’s the big deal? He is only home 2 1/2 additional days a week. Well…I [...]

The straight poop

May 27, 2009

One of many things that was not obvious to me before I became a mother was the amount of time I would spend each day in poop-related activities. And yes, I am referring to the poop of others, not my own. Of course I expected the diaper phase to be poop-laden, but even during that [...]

I dunno why she backed over the rope

May 25, 2009

* This weekend we celebrated Memorial Day at my parents’ house. They live on a lake. First came this… And then this… Yep, I backed over the tow rope which caused one end to lodge itself into the jet ski motor rendering it useless until someone does major surgery on the motor…that someone is my [...]

Just one little wish

May 20, 2009

Blog-Stedman and I are two of the most opinionated people I know. It is probably a good thing that on most issues we agree. It is also probably a good thing that I am a see-both-sides-of-any-issue-and-then-invent-a-third-side kinda girl. Obviously opinionation is a dominant gene. My boys seem to have been issued a double dose of [...]

Get in bed by the count of 3

May 19, 2009

When we designed the house in which we now live we had two kids. We put three bedrooms upstairs, but planned on using one of them as a playroom for our two boys. Well, it took awhile to design and build the home. About the same amount of time as it takes to get pregnant [...]

May 18, 2009

Today is super exciting. I have moved from JuneCleaverNirvana.com to the new and improved JuneCleaverNirvana.com… Alright, it was more like a drive around the block. After 18 months with my dear friend blogger, I am all grown up and moving out to self-hosted WordPress. I am super mature. BUT…I NEED YOU TO READ THIS NEXT [...]

Just don't be 6th

May 13, 2009

I have heard it over and over… and over… Oh! and over… So much so that at dinner tonight I repeated it back to the boys: First is Worse. Second is Best. Third is the one with the Treasure Chest. Fourth is the one with the Wedding Dress. Fifth is the one with the Hairy [...]

Bug juice

May 12, 2009

I may have mentioned that I am raising very sensitive sons. And by sensitive I mean overly-reactive. They are sensitive about the dark, being alone, vegetables, anything they don’t want to do and bugs. BUGS pretty much tops the list – the super-frightening, extraordinarily-horrifying, death-defying list. I am not a big spider fan so I [...]
