Daria’s Life

This morning Dylan and I routed through his entire closet and drawers, in prep for him starting High School on Tuesday. I can’t believe we moved to a city where 9th graders go to High School, I’m soooo not ready for this!!
On the bright side we organized his clothing together and have a huge donations […]

My son just rocked out his final report card, and now he’s headed off to High School in the Fall! Way to go Dylan, I’m so proud of you. You totally kicked it up a notch and proved to yourself that you could do it. I hope you can always remember what it took for […]

On Monday evening Nathan arrived back home, after an excruciating absence for another Dental Conference. We were so happy to see him! His presence was even more of a thrill when the children discovered that their Nana had sent along a Gingerbread Train for our family night activity!! They were boundless sources of energy, covered […]

Dylan and I had so much fun dreaming up his costume this year and putting it together.
Everyone freaked out when he came to their doors, they loved it! My boy even had the walk down pat. We had so much fun together - I just love that kid!
Just had to share as […]

Oh yeah, I’m good! I must share my delight in being able to snag Dylan a shiny new paper route right in our area today. Yeppers that’s right, my boy will now be inducted into the Muirhead Men’s long standing tradition of early morning paper route detail. I can’t wait to see my boy get […]

OK now I’m ready to cry - well either that or lock Dylan up in a tower somewhere. Last night he ran with me to the drugstore and while we were there he mentioned that he wanted to dye his hair (um ok, I wasn’t quite ready for that). He wanted to dye it black […]

Dylan is now experincing his second day of summer camp and enjoying the break away from the Nintendo! LOL! (I doubt that, I’m sure he dreams at night about which guy he is going to use to defeat some other guy). Yesterday they played all day at the lake, in the pool and at a […]

Our son Dylan is growing up before my eyes, I’ve noticed the glaringly obvious truth that my first baby is changing and maturing. He eagerly tells you that he’s a “pre-teenager” and I’ve noticed that he’s just different about some things. Probably small and unnoticeable things to anyone who doesn’t know him well, but Mommy’s […]

This weekend was Dylan’s first big Basketball Tournament ever, he’s never played on a team until this year but he’s done so well. His coach has been really fabulous and supportive of him and the team is awesome. He finally caught the FEVER on Friday nights game. We all went to cheer the team to […]

Tommorrow is the big day for Dylan when all of his friends come over for his big Birthday Sleepover extravaganza. I asked him if he’d like me to come up with some games or something for them to do or if they just want to watch movies, play video games and pig out. To which […]
