Things I can't live without #1

I thought, since I have 4 kids, I would start posting items I cannot live without. We do use tons of products for all sorts of things.

So, the honor of being the first item on my list goes to:

Burt's Bees Res-Q Ointment!!

This stuff is amazing! We use it on everything: cuts, bruises, bites, dry skin patched and diaper rash. I carry a tin of it in my purse and in the diaper bag. We have several tins around the house. Healing happens in no time flat and it smells good. When my kids get hurt, they immediately ask for "the green stuff". FYI: Burt's Bees is not paying me for this endorcement, although they should! Or at least send me free stuff!!

Queen Elizabeth

Oh, it's been too long since my last post!


We had record snow last week. We were in the house for 5 days! You can imagine what my house looks like! We spent time reading, looking at craft ideas online, and doing a few crafts ourselves. We also played and played in the snow. I will post pics soon.

The twins have become very vocal the past few weeks. It is VERY loud in our house with everyone trying to get attention.

Elizabeth is the bossiest child I have ever seen! I think the name comes with a royal attitude! She seems to think we are all here to serve her. Lily, her identical twin, is her "lady-in-waiting". She always wants her sister to be happy. When Elizabeth is demanding her way, but not getting it, Lily will argue for her until she is satisfied. Lily is so "happy-go-lucky" and mild tempered. It is so funny that they have identical DNA, but such different personalities! They are both such a blessing and keep us very entertained.
God save the Queen (Vanpool)!
