Life With Boys

The mis-adventures of two crazy boys and their bleary eyed parents.


  • A future in psychology?

    Tyler does not like going to movies — despite the inducements of junk food and video games. Morgan wanted to know why, “Tyler, talk to me, what scares you?” Morgan’s breakthrough results — apparently the seats are too high.(And I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried.) Continue reading

  • This is my day so far …

    7 am — rush to get kids to school so I can make a meeting at 8 am8:05 am — get a call from person I’m supposed to meeting with that he just can’t make it, how about 4 pm (I usually leave at 4) fine9 am — “Where are the charts?” “Well I’m still… Continue reading

  • 3 bottles of cough syrup later …

    Morgan is better, I still have a nagging cough that does not want to go away. But I did find that they now make clear, sugar free cough syrup for those of you with colds who are also on a diet 🙂 Continue reading

  • Why do I bother to ask?

As only Morgan and I were home I had a pretty good idea who put it there, but not why.Why you ask was there a stegosaurus in my fridge? “Because it’s the… Continue reading

  • OK How out of it am I?

    It has recently been pointed out that for someone who is pretty technically savvy I’m really out of it because I don’t have an iPod OR a Facebook page. So what I want to know is do you? Continue reading

  • Yeah it’s not pneumonia …

    I was having problems breathing — feeling like every breath requires a huge inhale so I went in for X-Rays — they were clear — so whatever it is I’m coughing up is not pneumonia related.

  • If I lay down I cough so I guess I’ll blog …

    Surprise, surprise, surprise — I have viral pneumonia as well now. I’m on an antibiotic for the accompanying sinus infection I’ve also acquired. I’m tired but need to sit up until the cough medicine kicks in. This sucks. We were supposed to be going away with the kids for the weekend — and now it… Continue reading

  • The Morgan Update — Part Two ….

    He’s getting better, no fever for two days now. He’s still coughing but we’re down from 4 breathing treatments a day to 3 (YEAH — it’s nearly impossible to get him to do even one.) He’s as active as can be and I caught him (literally) leaping off the table behind the couch to the… Continue reading

About Me

I started this site so my mom could get news about her grandkids without me having to walk her through the process of trying to open and email attachment several times a week.  Since then she has passed away and I’ve fallen off the blog wagon, but I’m inspired to pick it up again now.
