About Me I'm Stacy - a disciple of Christ, an Army wife, and a homeschooling mom to our 7 year old daughter. I spend my days doing fun science projects, going on field trips, cooking gluten-free meals, taking photos, reading, blogging & managing the home. I'm constantly behind on scrapbooking and want to learn how to crochet more than scarves, but there are only so many hours in the day.
I believe that shoes should always be optional, life is better at the beach, and chocolate is a necessary food group!

After Lovebug’s sensory meltdown a couple days ago, I decided what we really needed was some more time together. Yes, as a homeschooling parent, I spend all day every day with her already. However, we have been so busy lately that we haven’t had a lot of just one-on-one time. We have been spending countless hours . . . → Read More: Cleaning up after the meltdown

This past week Lovebug and I spent some time in Delaware. We stayed at my friend’s house, and another friend came in from another state to join us. It was a great time! Lots of girlfriend time for us grownups, and lots of fun play time for the kiddos. There were 2 girls (both 7 years . . . → Read More: Horse Riding in Delaware

This is what I got to see first thing this morning.
Notice anything missing?
It’s actually a lot more missing than you think. Here is what the Tooth Fairy will find tonight…

When Hubby was in AIT one of our vehicles had a flat tire, and I tried to change it myself. I failed miserably.
When he was at JRTC, Murphy (of Murphy’s Law) tried messing with our truck, but HE failed. I can only chalk that one up to a true miracle.
Now that Hubby is deployed, Murphy . . . → Read More: Take THAT, Murphy!

Lovebug has been taking swimming lessons this summer and is doing amazing!! Last month when she did the first round, I put her in Level 1 because I wasn’t sure how intense the levels here would be. Almost right away, the teacher said that she really needed to be in Level 3 based on how much . . . → Read More: Swimming lessons

Yesterday Lovebug started swimming lessons here on post. She was a little nervous, and I couldn’t figure out why. She LOVES the water. L-O-V-E-S it. She couldn’t even stay out of the ocean when we were there once in December. So I asked her why she was nervous, and she said, “This is the first . . . → Read More: She went off the diving board!

Lovebug and I had a great day! We started the day with breakfast, and then some game time. I wanted some one-on-one time with her because I knew I would be spending a lot of time unpacking today and she wouldn’t get as much of my focused attention.
First we played “I Can Do That!”. It’s . . . → Read More: I cried over her misspelled words

Lovebug is now riding her bicycle on just 2 wheels! I am so incredibly proud of her!
She’s been riding her bike with training wheels for quite a while, and we weren’t in a hurry to take them off because her balance and motor skills just weren’t ready. She can be a bit of a perfectionist which . . . → Read More: No more training wheels!
