Welcome to Not Me! Monday! Where I have an opportunity to admit what I did NOT do this week. When I ran out of size one diapers for Isabella I was able to use a few size two diapers, although they were a little big and made her look like she had a big, saggy, baby ...
With the arrival of baby Bella in addition to our other responsibilities, Mark and I are NOT struggling to keep up with everything.Nope, not us, everything is under control. I was NOT having to rush to get a shower in time to make ...
Our whole family is NOT completely goo-goo over our sweet new baby girl. We are a sensible, productive family so tiny ears, crossed eyes and soft skin are NOT enough to make us all want to just sit around holding and admiring a tiny baby. Isabella was NOT over ...

Last week we celebrated Matthew's 11th birthday. For his special day we made a big fire in the back yard and cooked dinner and roasted marshmallows for S'mores out over the open flame. I did NOT ask if I could stay inside and watch through the sliding ...
I did not inadvertently spill some water on the keyboard of our family's laptop causing the 't' and the 'y' keys to short out and thus making it impossible to sign into the computer. (Do you think that if I say that often enough that it really will not have happened and that my 't' ...
