Winter is the time of year for most of us that we like to light the fire in the fireplace, curl up with a good book, a glass of wine and forget the bitter cold just outside our walls. While fireplaces are a beautiful focal point, conversation piece and delight in the winter there are many preventative maintenance tips you should adhere to:
Your chimney should be swept annualy by a qualified
In case you missed the news-flash…I was in Buffalo for six days with my kids - and no hubby. Gro-gram (my grandmother) kindly housed us at her place. She had two spare sleeping places - the couch (with a pull-out bed, but who needs that?), and the spare room fully equipped with a full size [...]

My three year old has a habit of crawling into bed with us around 4 a.m. I confess, it's a habit that I have not put much effort into breaking (and I know better - I do). It's just too easy to lift her up, throw her into the middle of the bed beside me and snuggle her back to sleep. And she's three - soft and warm like the Snuggle Bear - and most days, she smells good. She will wake from her s

I've updated you on Baby Bug and Boo and now it's time to update you on Snuggle Bug. In specific, I'm going to share with you the effects I see that our fostering has had on him.Snuggle Bug has had his life turned upside down these past few months! Having two little girls join our family has been quite an adjustment and one that's not easily explained to a 3 year old.When Baby Bug arrived after Thanksgiving last year, he didn't seem to mind too much. She was a cute little thing and he was fascinated with having a 3 week old baby in the house. We explained that Baby Bug's mommy and daddy couldn't take care of her right now so we'd be taking care of her for a while. We were careful not to refer to her as his sister or say, "Our baby" as we weren't sure if how long we'd have her. We were tryi
Snuggling in the coziness of a nice comforter can mean alot to your beauty sleep. I like high thread count cotton bedding as well as silk bedding and in fact, silk is the most alluring way to dress a bed. A comforter bedding should be soft, smooth, and responsive, lightly warm in creating for you [...]
I work on the theory that to knit in a frenzy should occupy hands and instill a quiet mind. Thus far the theory proves less than satisfactory. The boys lie on their tummies on the carpet creating Pokemon figures. My youngest daughter lounges on the sofa next to me with her feet in my lap and frequent warnings, “jus don’t poke me with those needles.” I’m almost sure I hear a whisper from those on the carpet, “don wanna spend dah afternoon in dah emergency room!” but maybe I’m mistaken? My eldest daughter wanders in, “glad to see you with your feet up!” she beams as I adjust my "ice-pack." “What are you knitting? It looks like a…......…bone!”“Looks lika bone, looks lika bone, looks lika bone,” whispers the carpet.“Does it? I hadn’t noticed the shape.

I am an extremely cold-blooded person so during the winter months, I keep my heater on 75 and my heated blanket on HI. That is until I got my hands on the Slanket. It's a heavy duty fleece blanket with sleeves and has really changed the way I stay warm. No more high winter utility bills for ME! I wrap myself in this large super-soft blanket and blog my troubles away. Best of all, it's machine washable! If you need warmth without the hassle of adjusting your thermostat, snuggle up with a Slanket today.The Slanket "Pink Lavendar", $44.95, theslanket.com

Gourds have so much personality, don’t you agree? I have a great time personifying them in paintings. These two snugglers are the result of a trip to the local farmer’s market.
I recently posted an update on our efforts to adopt a second time but it's been a while since I've posted an update on Snuggle Bug. I thought I'd share some pics of him while I'm at it.Snuggle Bug is growing like a weed lately. He'll be turning 3 in December and right now he's about 28 lbs. and is roughly 35" tall. His feet have grown to a size 8 so I'm now buying size 8 1/2 winter shoes so that he has room to grow. He's moved from 24 mos to 2T clothes. One day he'll make it to 3T.Snuggle Bug's such a smart and inquisitive little boy. He learns things quickly...well, all except for his colors, for some reason he still likes everything to be blue. His potty training is going well, at least the daytime aspect of it. He still has occasional accidents, but overall he's doing really well!Snuggle Bug is talking up a storm. I think being in daycare (yes, he's still there because Oronzo's contract job is going longer than expected) is actually helping in this area. His interaction
Parent of children with asthma and allergies are extra cautious about plush toys and fabrics that collect dust & allergens. Before now, stuffed toys were off limits for many of these families. The “asthma friendly®” toys from Kids Preferred are making their way into allergic homes everywhere to the delight of many children in need of a fuzzy cuddle! These certified toys don’t contain any fabric or fillings known to aggravate asthma. The toys maintain all safety requirements even after the allergen reduction procedure of freezing, washing and drying has occurred.
The directions from the website:
1. Freeze. Place toy inside a freezer bag, then place in freezer for 24 hours.
2. Wash/Dry. Machine wash warm, delicate cycle/tumble dry high. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Recommend use of fabric bag for wash/dry cycle and allow toy to cool before giving toy to child.
3. Cuddle with confidence.
4. Repeat this process every certain number of weeks, as specific

In December, we bought Snuggle Bug a bike for his 2nd birthday. Oronzo took it home, put it together, and then Snuggle Bug hopped on. He was so excited!Unfortunately, his little legs couldn't reach the pedals. Oronzo tried to tape wooden blocks on to give Snuggle Bug some extra height, but that didn't work. Being pushed on his bike by Mommy or Daddy was fun for Snuggle Bug, but not fun for Mommy or Daddy!Yesterday afternoon, Snuggle Bug and I were outside playing. I saw his tricycle in the driveway and asked him if he wanted to ride it. "Yesth" was his prompt reply! I figured I'd push him around the block once and call it good.Snuggle Bug climbed on his tricycle, put his feet to the pedals, and to much to my amazement he pedaled and the tricycle moved a bit! I wasn't helping him. His feet actually now reach the pedals, proof positive that he's grown since December!I laughed and cheered him on! He grinned and pedaled some more. He was only able to go short distances on his own (exc

Well, as we're trying to decide what to do with Adoption #2, I thought I'd share some cute pictures of Snuggle Bug.This is Snuggle Bug and me in the airport walking to catch our connecting flight to Nebraska (for our Thanksgiving trip home). Snuggle Bug is fascinated with moving sidewalks and escalators. Those proved to be a great way to entertain him during our layover! He's such a good little traveler though.Here's Snuggle Bug braving the moving sidewalk on his own. It didn't take him long to get up the courage to walk on them without holding my hand. Isn't he cute with his little boy backpack on? We filled it with some of his favorite toys and books.Here's Snuggle Bug with one of his cousins. This cousin is 7 months older than Snuggle Bug and the two of them love spending time playing together. They like to hold hands a lot as they're walking.Okay, that's all the eye candy for today. I need to get back to work. Tomorrow I'm off and I don't return to work until 12/27, so I
It's hard for me to believe, but this past weekend we celebrated Snuggle Bug's 2nd birthday with a party held at our house.Where have these years flown? I kid you not, it feels like just yesterday that I held him in my arms at 2 minutes old and marveled at how light he felt and how much thick, dark hair he was born with. The memories of his birth day are still so vivid!Now, he's a walking, talking, sometimes sassy, very sweet little boy who has Oronzo and I wrapped around his little finger.We love this child so very much! He's brought such happiness and contentment to our lives. We truly enjoy parenting energetic, often funny toddler. We're so very thankful that we've been blessed with having him as the center of our little family.For his 2nd birthday party, we went with a Thomas the Train theme. Snuggle Bug is very enamored with trains. Anytime we walk into Barnes & Nobles or Toys R Us, he makes a bee-line for the Thomas the Train table sets that each store has set up for little
