Talking on the Phone Without Your Kids vs. With Your Kids | More LOLs & Funny Stuff for Moms | NickMom

If I start singing "There's a hundred and four days of summer vacation then school comes along just to end it." You probably know that I am talking about Phineas and Ferb. My kids love that show and when we went to Disney World this past year we stood in the rain for 30 minutes just so they could meet the characters. So when Phineas and Ferb: The Best Live Tour Ever came to town we had to go. I wasn't sure if my oldest was going to be into it since he is just too cool sometimes to do the things his siblings do, but they all had a great time. The characters were really on point and they sang and danced to all the greatest hits of the show. I even caught myself singing along to the songs I knew. I would recommend this show to any Phineas and Ferb fans out there.

I am happy to be able to offer the opportunity to win a family four pack to either the Sunday Nov. 18th @6pm or Monday Nov. 19th @7pm show. So how do you win this contest you ask?tact the winner by email.

And so it has begun...

Well I guess as you can tell I have been slacking on updating the blog. That must mean school is back in session and I am running around like a crazy person. The kids have been back for a little over 3 weeks and I am definitely happy to be back to the school routine, but I feel like all of my time is now consumed by my children. Between school, sports and activities I am constantly asking do you have your schoolwork? Do you have your equipment? Do you have my keys? Of course, these are all asked at the last minute and anyone who knows me knows that I am OCD about never being late for anything. Hey, I was an hour early for my own wedding.
I know I am not the only one engulfed in the back to school chaos. We just had open house last week and I had the opportunity to meet my kids teachers. It was definitely nice to get to know who will be dealing with my kids for 180 days. I have been a parent at the kids school for 8 years so I feel as though I know the staff pretty well, but until you actually get a chance to really sit down and talk to your child's teachers you really don't know what they are all about. So far the biggest issue that we have had is with Drew's teacher. It isn't so much an issue with her, but getting Drew to adapt to the way she does things. She is tough and is trying to get the kids ready for junior high next year. I guess that is a good thing, but Drew has had to pay the price because he hasn't been the best example of a good student. He is definitely trying and we have seen some improvement. It is only the 1st month of school so we have a long way to go. Hopefully, this year will be full of successes. I can say that being out of work and being at the disposal of my children has made this year a lot easier. It's funny, I never considered being a stay at home mom when the kids were little. I know that lots of people would be appalled by that statement. I really don't think I could have dealt with being home all the time with my kids when they were little and I am one that believes that kids thrive and gain independence when put into an environment where they get to be with other kids. Although now, I love being home. I am able to help my kids with their homework and make sure that they have access to everything they need to be successful. They don't seem to mind it either.

Top 9 Reasons My Kids Keep Their Early Bedtime Throughout The Summer | More LOLs & Funny Stuff for Moms | NickMom

I always say I am the meanest parent out there since my kids even my almost 12 year old have an 8 o'clock bedtime, but this list proves there are some really good reasons for it. Drew has asked if he can increase his bedtime to 8:30 when he turns 12 and I think he probably deserves that much.
