Moms On The Net is a place for all of us moms in cyberspace to get together & share our homepages with each other. Here you will find family homepages showing off beautiful children, sites related to motherhood, parenting, child-rearing, family childcare providers, work at home moms sites and general chat groups and much more! It's a great way to improve the traffic to your website. Please no free-for-all-links pages- there must be some content relative to the theme of the ring. Also, please no adult subject matter; this is a family ring, and our children should be able to safely surf all the sites in the ring! Thanks :-) The webring ssnb code must be placed on the submitted page; if that is a webring page, there must be a link back to that page from your site. Sites which clearly state in their description their relevance to this ring will receive a higher listing in the ring. Calling all Moms on the Net!- Come join this great ring!!
So yesterday Ash started calling me Crocodile Mama. I know, where does she get these things? I don't know. It's an improvement (sort of) from Monster Mama, which I was called earlier this week. And she still throws in Mr. Mama all the time. She kept calling me Crocodile Mama and when I'd answer her by saying, "Yes, Ashtyn?" she'd say, "NO, it's Cro...
Well, what can I say about this week? Um . . . oh yeah. We almost had a major disaster. It was a major disaster, come to think of it. But it could have been worse. Here's what happened: So the kids and I go to a playgroup on Mondays (if I can talk myself into getting ready in time. In my opinion, Mondays are meant for pajamas). So this Monday I'd ...
Ashtyn woke up in a good mood today. I love it when she's all smiles and hugs in the morning. Especially when Linc wakes up fussy. My little guy's appetite is growing. I was up at 2 am for the second day in a row as he guzzled a bottle down. Today Jeff says we're going to work on not holding Linc for most of every hour around the hour. You know wh...
I am linking up with Shannon over at LAID for So What Wednesday! This week I'm saying so what if: I went to a Pickwick concert on a weeknight and pretended to be a college student again. At said concert, I was stuck behind the one guy in the room who decided to be Mr. Step-Up dancer and he continually hit my arm while swinging his. Lincoln wants t...
You know how when you were back in college, you'd stay up all night and function the next day? Well, some of us anyway. I hadn't stayed up past midnight probably since Ashtyn was born. At least, not intentionally. There are the "newborn" nights of being up every hour, but that's something you gotta do. Anyway, here's the deal, at our library the w...
Read to Me - I am linking up with Jenni for Your Three Words. (I am loving this link-up thing. Saves me from having to think of ideas of what to write about.) So, my three words are Read to Me. I am a reader, people. You may have guessed this by the fact that I'm a book editor by profession. Jeff is amazed that I can find time to read amid raising kids, keepin...
So it was supposed to snow this morning but it didn't. It's bright and sunny. This is a good thing until I start watching Live with Kelly and she's talking about spring cleaning. Suddenly I wished it had snowed. Bright and sunny seems to mean it's time to spring clean. I figure I'll just wait a week and it will be snowing again in Colorado and I w...
I am linking up with Shannon for So What Wednesday! You should try it, too! This week I'm saying So What if: 1. I ate half a jar of honey because that was the only sweet thing I could find in the pantry. 2. I had a tragic doctor visit with my kids and left feeling sweaty and stressed beyond belief. 3. I am working, working, working and will have t...
So yesterday Jeff told me to call first thing in the morning to make a doctor's appt. for Lincoln. His runny nose situation had developed into raspy sounds and a bad cough. (I'm thinking Ashtyn's runny nose is just a part of her DNA at this point.) So I got an appointment for the afternoon and was having an altogether pretty good day. Ashtyn ate a...
So last night we had dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant and at the same time, said goodbye to some friends of ours who are moving. I am sad just saying that! Even though I know they have to go and it's the right thing and God will direct them all the way and we'll stay friends--and all that stuff. But still! I'm sad they are leaving. And it ...
Germs must thrive in my house or something. I don't know. I know they thrive at daycare, which is probably some of the reason Ash and Linc's noses never stop running. We're going on two weeks of cold sickness in our house. Doctor visit last week told us we just have to let it all run its course. I hate when they tell me that. So after being sick f...
Yeah. You know how they say, "When it rains, it pours"? Well, in Colorado, when it snows, it blizzards. At least that's how it's felt for this mom lately. (Not to mention we did have like 10 inches of snow Thursday.) Do you want to know what I think moms don't get enough of? Time alone. I'm seriously the kind of person that needs time for myself o...
I love Shannon' s So What Wednesdays , so today I'm joining in. This week I'm saying so what if: I'm currently living for Friday nights when I know Jeff will bring pizza home. At least we're not eating it every other day of the week! Despite my usual intolerance of reality shows, I am slowly being won over by The Voice. But what is up with that ca...
Today was one of those days. The 'start strong' kind, where you leave on time for work, your hair is cooperating and you like your outfit, you don't get mad even though you have to stop to fill up with gasoline (and you normally hate that), the view of the mountains is gorgeous, "Good Life" by OneRepublic is on the radio and you turn it up extra l...
Okay, here's the deal: Are marathons becoming a major trend for moms? I think maybe. I have friends doing marathons, and it seems like lots of the mom blogs I frequent are talking about marathons and running and getting places fast and all that jazz. This is a problem for me. We've talked about my easily influenced self--but, people, I can't join ...
