then getting ready for noah s backyard campout party actually had the party on june 1st things have been a wee bit nutty fun but nutty but in keeping with my resolution i forced myself to post a few pics to the blog that i already posted on facebook june will be just as eventful dress rehearsal tomorrow night recital this weekend last week of school yippee choreographing a little aladdin jr packing up for va abby s gymnastics showcase and right after the kids and i are heading down to virginia for 7 weeks where i will be teaching musical theatre camps this summer hence the aladdin jr

little crowded but fun just trying to get all of my ducks in a row before we leave definitely stepping outside the box venturing off to va this summer but i think a escape from the neighborhood kids constantly knocking at my door er change of scenery will be good really really good posted by kelli writing the waves at 12 13 am no comments wednesday may 22 2013 i could use more moments like these nowhere to be ignoring my endless to do s just playing a little rummikub with my boy took the game along to my mom s this past weekend first time the kids had played noah can t get enough of it post mother s day resolution play more board games force yourself to do puzzles even though you hate puzzles noah asked me to help him with his 100 piece marvel comics puzzle the other day i whined a little a first but i did it anyway i just can t resist that kid posted by kelli writing the waves at 11 51 pm no comments sunday may 12 2013 she s nine i can t believe it it was mother s day nine years ago when we brought her home from the hospital only two days old little fingers little toes swaddled somewhat in a little classic pooh receiving blanket i blinked facebook post birthday lasagna and a full size drink no more kid s cups for this nine year old this year has flown i am talking by the speed of light seriously i m trying to figure out how to freeze this age abby being nine and noah almost seven when did this even happen facebook post 4 9 dinner outside at the taco stand the closest thing to freezing time my camera even if it is just capturing a moment with my phone the moments i want to remember the ones i am afraid i will forget my facebook page has become a mini blog of sorts over the past several months posting probably too many pics of the kids and captions lucky for me it s been right there at my fingertips since i haven t been able to make the time to sit down and write an actual blog post this going back to teaching thing just part time among my other side jobs has been a lot more challenging than i thought it would be and even though most some days i feel like i am barely keeping my head above water i ve realized that blogging was an outlet for me i ve missed it i love looking back at these stories about my kiddos and my experiences as a mom as long winded as they may be and re living those moments frozen in time so i am making a mother s day resolution for myself and my kiddos to post more this next year write more tell their stories and mine stories we can laugh about learn from and remember for years to come because holy cow those years are coming faster and faster facebook post 9 4 12 and they re off facebook post 12 31 12 kiddos begged to stay up until midnight this year so pj party in the living room happy 2013 fb post 2 27 after school donuts at yum yum fb post 3 31 happy easter fb post 5 12 best part of the day snuggling with the kiddos on the couch watching dvred american idol sure love those kids of mine posted by kelli writing the waves at 11 44 pm 2 comments labels back on the grid mother s day resolutions tuesday august 28 2012 wreckless abandonment i never thought i d be one one of those bloggers who posted and commented pretty regularly then dwindled down to a couple of posts a month and then nothing there were a few blogs that i followed regularly and would check back periodically hoping for a new post a quick update an explanation even as to why their poor blog had been so neglected zilch i hoped that everything was okay and maybe life had just gotten too hectic and something had to give still i couldn t quite understand how you could put so much time into writing and reflecting and posting all those crazy cute pictures and then just stop now i get it life just gets crazy sometimes and as my kids get older things are just getting busier and time is flying faster it s really freaking me out to tell you the truth at least i ve managed to post pictures and snippets on facebook if only i could bring them all over here i d be all caught up the only reason i am able to write now is because i skipped out on football practice tonight yes noah is playing tackle football this season all daddy s idea of course i swear i need a xanax prescription to handle this trying to keep up with everything and everyone this summer seems like a blur and i can t believe that school starts next week and this year i am going back with the kids yep after an eight year hiatus i interviewed at the kids elementary school and was offered a learning support position woohoo thanks in part to the great recommendations their teachers gave me since i volunteered so much last year i am sure some people thought i already worked there i have workshops tomorrow and thursday and i have no idea what i am going to wear my semi professional wardrobe is very much lacking after all these years of being at home that s actually why i stayed home from football so i could figure that out i am procrastinating can you tell i am really excited to be going back though and to be at the same school as my kids is what i ve always hoped would work out so i can t make any promises as i am not sure what september will bring getting into this new routine plus teaching dance writing for bkids and taking the kids to football and gymnastics but i really do hope to be able to squeeze a little blogging in there somewhere fingers crossed posted by kelli writing the waves at 8 06 pm no comments wednesday may 16 2012 as promised before and after let s do this marking the spot the anticipation the big moment didn t shed one single tear even surprised herself cute as cute can be seriously when did my baby girl get so grown up sure do love you sweet girl and your rose crystal earrings posted by kelli writing the waves at 11 48 pm 1 comment tuesday may 1 2012 it can t be it can t be may where in the world did april go never has a month gone by so fast i ve thought about posting several times but then my self diagnosed add kicks in and i am on to other things i ve also been hesitant to post afraid of what might come out do you ever wish you had a switch to just turn off your thoughts over thinking everything worrying too much what if ing remembering wishing things were more like they used to be drives me nuts it can t be six days until abby s 8th birthday seriously can not be when did this creep up on me i was just now making her a pink and purple castle cake for her fourth birthday and now she is sporting little pink crystal flower earrings that we have to clean twice a day yep she got her ears pierced this past saturday an early birthday gift a perfect way to end a perfectly girly day at sweet and sassy with her brownie troop they got their hair and nails done and had a little runway fashion show it was too cute although i could personally never justify spending that much on a birthday party but their troop sold so many cookies so this is what they picked as their reward 2400 boxes people not us we sold a measly 75 boxes but i didn t hold my own cookie booth every weekend like some of the other moms did wowzers i will have to post some pics of abby before and after she was over the moon excited after it took her 45 minutes to muster up the courage to do it and kept thanking me over and over for letting her get her ears pierced such a cutie it can t be that my brother sister in law and their three kiddos are now in texas a three day drive away it hasn t sunk in thirteen hours was already far enough to chicago but he was presented with an opportunity in tx where he knows a couple of guys short commute all moving expenses paid profit sharing so they decided to do it i wasn t on board with it for purely selfish reasons it s so far away my heart hurts thinking about it i can t really blame them though this 45 50 minute commute that pat has is for the birds we hardly see him brian s commute was over an hour between parking the car and taking the train into the city and then walking to work now his commute will be 8 minutes still why does tx have to be half way across the country plane tickets are so durn expensive sigh it can t be that i have been interrupted six times in the last 15 minutes since sitting down to write this between requests for snacks from the neighbor kid phone calls refereeing it s no wonder i feel like i have add now off to take abby s friend home then girl scouts then the last tpo meeting of the year that class moms supposed to attend hoping the ds will keep noah occupied for at least part of the meeting it can t be that it s almost the end of the school year good gravy posted by kelli writing the waves at 5 50 pm 2 comments older posts home subscribe to posts atom catching waves and wiping out on a daily
