Anne is a 30-something full-time SAHM mom of 5 ranging from 3 to 17 and grandma of 1 who resides in Ashwaubenon (Green Bay) Wisconsin. She started blogging in 2008 as a way to regain her sanity. She enjoys coffee, chocolate, cheeseburgers and vodka along with spending time with her husband and kids.
Back in the beginning of April, I returned to school to pursue my BS in Communications with a concentration in Sales & Marketing.
This week, I am working hard on my final week of my first course, Intro to Communications.
This time around, my classes are only 5 weeks long, whereas during my AA program they were 9. Also, for my BS program we work on learning teams so it has made the workload lighter and the class has flown by.
I am looking forward to this first class coming to a close and enjoying the week long break I will be giving myself in between all of my classes this time around. After 2 years with very little for breaks between classes for my AA, I learned my lesson and will be taking the breaks to make sure I am getting my much needed family time as well.
So, wish me luck on this new journey and keep your fingers crossed that this crazy finals week that I am currently going through goes off without a hitch!

I often find myself trying to remember what my life was like as a kid.
You know, before cell phones, iPods, iPads and all of these other electronic protable devices that my kids carry around with them today. Three of my four children own an iPod Touch, yes, right down to the 4 year old and I’m sure Ellie will have one in the future as well. In addition to the iPods, my two oldest children have their own cell phones, one of which is an Android phone.
My oldest, Zack, is hooked on playing games on his iPod Touch. He is so into the games, that he spends A LOT of time online looking for new games and learning about up and coming games and features.
Seeing all of the cool new and innovative games from AppGear tells me that I am going to have one happy kid on my hands! AppGear’s new games like Foam Fighters and ZombieBurbz are both right up his alley and are games that I am sure he will want to play with his friends.
It won’t be too long and he will be asking for an iPad next!
Seriously, what did we do as kids before all of this awesome technology came along??
It is hard to believe that my little Ellie is already 4 months old.
She went in for her 4 month check today and weighed in at 12lbs. 3.5ozs which is almost double her 6lb. 2oz birth weight! She is also 23.5 inches long which means she has grown an inch for each month she is old since birth.
Overall the good Dr. J. was very happy with her progress, strength and loved her smiles!
After 2 shots, some crying and lunch she is now taking the rest of the afternoon off to nap!
By now, everyone who reads my blog on a regular basis is aware of Alexander’s obsession with super heroes and the need to dress like them. You are also aware that he does have a few favorite heroes and they are Captain American ad Iron Man. Both of these heroes happen to be characters in the The Super Hero Squad Show: The Infinity Guantlet Season 2 Volume 3.
I’m sure you have no come to the conclusion that my kid is loving this show!
