LaLaGirl – Twinfinite Chaos! Parenting Multiples and Dealing with Autism

Seven Years.

I wrote this two years ago, but the story hasn't changed, so I'm reposting it in honor of today: Pablo and Mallory's 7th Birthday! I can't believe my big kids are seven years old already. I mean, I vividly remember BEING seven. I remember turning seven, heading out to run an errand with my dad, and a friend of his giving me a wind-up hopping penguin in honor of it being my birthday. How is it that I have kids old enough to be making memories they'll conjure up thirty years from now? It feels weird. But it's true. And ...

Class Reunion!

My hubby and I are heading out of here for the weekend (without our children! Whee!) to attend my high school class reunion! I'm SO excited - way more than I was about the ten year reunion! I've reconnected with so many old familiar faces thanks to Facebook, and I can't wait to see everyone.

And guess who is JUST as happy about all of this? MOMMY! Yeah! People keep asking me, what am I going to DO with myself? I have no idea.

Why in the ...

Mile High Mamas – Venice on the Creek Event!

We went to such a fun event this morning! Mile High Mamas/Mom it Forward paired with Denver's Venice on the Creek to promote McDonald's brand new frappes and fruit smoothies. What a blast! I've lived in Denver for almost all my life, and I had no idea you could take a gondola ride through downtown! Venice on the Creek is located just off of Speer, Larimer, and 14th. It's super fun - six people can fit aboard one of the gondolas (actually, they're punts, not gondolas) for a leisurely tour, steered by a pole operator who serves as a tour guide ...
