Playdate with the Lynches!!

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

Hanging out with the Lynches is ALWAYS a great time!!  Today was no exception!  Matt and Katie invited us over for a little play date with the kids but I think it was more of a play date for the adults!!  It was a great time and I hope something we’ll do more often!!

Dino and Stars!

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

This week Noby and I decided to make some cookies.  I thought we would try to make pre-Easter cookies however while making the dough I realized we didn’t have Easter cookie cutters.  So Noby decided that we should make dinosaurs and stars instead.  This was our second batch this week because we ate the first batch before we could decorate them! OOPS!!

They are starting to come out a little better.  I’m finding tricks to help me along the way…

Stars!!

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

So we needed a reward system in this house for a couple of different reasons…

1.  Noby now seems to think that hitting and spitting is the answer to not getting what he wants.

2.  I’m tired of having to repeat myself, over and over and over again!  Like for example, “Noby get your shoes.  Get your shoes Noby.  Noby if you want to leave you have to get your shoes…”

3.  Also, Noby is still not telling us when he has to go potty.  He isn’t having accidents however I have to remember to put him on the potty.

4.  Noby is OBSESSED with the computer.  He could play it all day long if allowed.  If Ichiro or I leave our laptops open, we always find Noby trying to play with it.  Remind me to tell you about all the pictures we found of Noby on our Photo Booth program.

Anyway I decided that we needed some type of award system.  I thought we could combine Noby’s love of the computer with rewards for acting appropriately.   We headed to Micheal’s to see what we could come up with.  I let Noby pick out some foam stars and I grabbed some velcro.  Noby could earn stars for helping out, picking up his toys, telling me he has to go potty, for doing things the first time he was told.  Then he could trade in the stars for a set amount of time on the computer.  For example I decided that Noby would earn 10 minutes of computer time for every star he earned.

We started this rewards system last week and I can’t say enough about it.  It really seems to be working.  I’m not saying that I have the perfectly behaved child however I’m repeating myself less, he’s punching a little less and we now have a nice way to cap the amount of time on the computer.  He knows when the timer goes off it’s time to shut the computer, no questions asked.  If he had only earned 1 star, he only gets 10 minutes.  Also Noby is now learning how to count by 10s, as he trades his stars in for the computer time I have him count by 10 for each star.

Super Moon

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

This past weekend was the Super Moon.  Although I didn’t see the superness in it, Ichiro was excited to break out his telescope to check it out!  He even got Noby into his geekiness!

Ichiro took over 1000 pictures of the Super Moon and of course the only picture I downloaded is out of focus! haha OOPS!

Happy Birthday Mommy!!!

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

This weekend my parents came to Boston to celebrate my Mom’s birthday with us!  She was turning the big 6 0 and her only request was that had to include everyone, especially the kids.  She didn’t want to do anything silly, like a movie or a stupid spa. HAHA  Brenda came up with a great idea for some candle pin bowling and she suggested a place she heard about on the Phantom Gourmet, The Flatbread Company’s Sacco’s Bowl Haven.  It was a perfect afternoon! We were able to relax, chitchat, eat a light lunch and bowl! It was great! Everyone had a great time!

That evening we took our parents out to dinner at the Continental in Saugus.  My Dad described the restaurant as old world.  He was not only impressed with his meal but also with everything the restaurant did BEFORE your food even arrived.  He said that’s what going out to eat use to be like.  We all enjoyed it very much!!

Happy 60th Birthday Mom (Memere!)!!!

New Kitchen

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

This week I worked hard on putting our kitchen back together, I couldn’t be more happy with how it turned out.  As most of you know the pantry part of our kitchen was more of a nursery.  We not only had a changing area set up in there but we pretty much stored everything related to the boys there.  From diapers to sippy cups, plus medicine and bath towels.  Like I said everything.  Anyway I was tired of it so I slowly started finding new places for everything.  Check out how it looks… I couldn’t be more happy!

Adding the Candy!

Posted by   Published in Uncategorized

Today we had to add the candy and package our St Patrick’s Day gifts for Noby’s teachers.  I think Noby enjoyed this part the most.  Only because he ate so much candy! haha

One by one he added the candy to the pots…

When it came to the packaging, Noby was funny.  I told him it was time to put them in the bag and this is what he did…

OOPS!  He just poured the candy into the bag.

In the end I love the way the pots looked.  I’m excited for Noby to bring them in tomorrow…
