The Summer of My Regret (aka Parenting #FAIL)

Filed Under: parenting Tagged With: summer, vacation

So, in a few starts a new school year, and with it a conviction that I need to do a better job.  I had lots of plans for our empty August, and shortened summer camp hours, and none of them came to fruition.  No potty training, no book learning, not much homeschooling, and precious little cooking.  I’m also convinced I can do a better job with

Disney World Family Trip, 2011, Day 2

Filed Under: family travel, tech & play Tagged With: vacation

We took “off” from activities on Father’s Day but we did have a GREAT character breakfast at the Ohana. Chris is sure we sat next to the actor who played Peter Brady, which is funny because all I could think of at the Polynesian was the Brady Bunch Hawaiian Vacation episode.  Big pans of food came and the kids ate it all!  Amelia has a

Filed Under: family travel, tech & play Tagged With: vacation

So Sunday morning we were sad we had to leave the Polynesian Resort at WDW. I didn’t, though, mention half of what we did! Here’s the low down: On Saturday, we spent time in the pool.  We didn’t realize that temps were over 100 at one point, which means 3 sunburnt grown ups.  Zoe LOVES swimming but all of a sudden she was out of
