Kiddos and Pups

Spring is Here, So That Means…Mud!!!

Posted on May 18, 2013 by Kelly Wymer

My kiddos are drawn to the outdoors and mud like a fly is to…well…you know. They only wear shoes when threatened, and apparently think I love worms as much as they do. (Worms are OK, but I prefer them to remain outside.) Now that winter has finally left and is now replaced by a pseudo [...]

A Very Busy Day Full of Chores

Posted on April 30, 2013 by Kelly Wymer

Now that the weather is finally cooperating, at least for a few days, I got the bug to start getting all my projects out of the way. I wanted to get as much done as I could, so I jammed a bunch of things into one day. After I got Jason and Troy up and [...]

A Tragedy With The Pups

Posted on March 11, 2013 by Kelly Wymer

I mentioned before that I have a lot to say in regards to the pups. Here is the story that may or may not have a happy ending, depending on how you look at it. As many of you that read this blog before already know, the pups were becoming a problem because they were [...]

Kiddos and Pups is Back!!

Posted on March 10, 2013 by Kelly Wymer

Sheesh! I thought I was NEVER going to get back to Kiddos and Pups. I missed it more than I would have expected. Things have been crazy around here, which is what resulted in the 3-month hiatus…and it still is…but I missed blogging too much, so I have decided to get things going and to [...]

Poop!

Posted on October 18, 2012 by Kelly Wymer

I know I promised not to do this very often, but I just have to do another post about poop. One of the hardest things about having four small kids and two pups is how much poop is required to be dealt with. My two older boys aren’t really the offenders except for a few [...]

Mushing with Echo

Posted on September 19, 2012 by Kelly Wymer

I mentioned a few days ago that I was going to start walking to get some exercise. I have started walking to get Jason from school, and waking him home with the other kiddos. I am also walking before or after dinner with the kids and pups. It is the walk with the kids and [...]

Locked In the Car – Ashley’s Story

Posted on September 2, 2012 by Kelly Wymer

I was doing the dinner dishes while the boys were outside on the swing, eating Popsicles. All was well until Ashley decided to join her brothers and swung the door from the kitchen to the garage wide open and started to lower herself down the step. Since the boys left the door from the garage [...]

The Olympics in My Living Room!

Posted on August 5, 2012 by Kelly Wymer

After dinner tonight, I told the kids that we would watch the Olympics together. I had been so busy lately, that Jason and I were DVRing them and watching them when we could, mostly after the kids went to bed. They were pretty excited to actually sit and watch them with me, so bath time [...]

Is that Rain?? In Kansas??? For Real??

Posted on July 26, 2012 by Kelly Wymer

Something Strange This Way Comes I stepped outside a moment ago, and something very strange started to happen. There was this breeze. I recognized it from my childhood. It was even a bit cool on my face. But that was not the weird part. The leaves in the trees were rustling in a strange sort [...]
