Preemies to Kings

by QuatroMama on February 2, 2012

Our tiny miracles turn FIVE today. It’s absolutely astonishing. What a road we’ve journeyed together, Sweet Miracle Boys! I never thought I’d give birth to a baby that would be dependent on ventilators, tubes, wires, and monitors to survive.  I never could have fathomed the helplessness I would feel to watch one of my babies [...]

Indianapolis is proving that it’s the hostest with the mostest in hosting Super Bowl XLVI! The excitement is electric and our city looks spectacular! The Super Bowl Village opened Friday and we were some of the first visitors to the streets, sites, and activities. We couldn’t wait to take part in this possibly “once in [...]

Make that 3 four year olds. Uno. (Brooks)   Dos. (Isaac) Tres. (Clark) I know it’s thumb sucking is a terrible habit. AND it’s terrible to break.  Henry is the only one exempt and he’s pretty proud of that fact. It started back in the day when Brad and I were trying to survive the [...]

Section 7. Row 17. Seats 1-6.

by QuatroMama on January 9, 2012

I can’t even fathom how much it would cost to take our family of six to a NBA Indiana Pacers game with lower level tickets. I’m thinking it could pretty much pay for a vacation somewhere warm. But when six tickets were offered for FREE through a friend of Brad’s in his professional organization, we [...]

Be Here Now

by QuatroMama on January 5, 2012

Source: etsy.com via Jen (QuatroMama) on Pinterest   I remember when the boys were tiny and we were so anxious for them to sleep through the night. Sometimes I miss those quiet moments in the middle of the night when I didn’t rush back to bed, but held them a little longer in the darkness. [...]

Believe it or not our soon to be five year olds {insert panic} have never sat on Santa’s lap until this year.  Between RSV lock downs when they were little and not putting a huge emphasis on Santa in our home, it’s just never happened until we had the opportunity last month at the Christmas [...]

The Hugging Punishment

by QuatroMama on December 16, 2011

The spanking debate is so 2011. Hugging is new school. When you’ve had all you can handle with arguing, bickering, and fighting between brothers – make them HUG. It might seem controversial. Perhaps a tad cruel and unusual to some, highly affective, nonetheless. Hugging for harmony. Bet you’ve never seen THAT in a parenting book [...]

We bundled [...]

Have you taken a look at your child’s toothpaste ingredients lately? I know I haven’t…just getting the task of tooth brushing x4 once or twice a day is enough to keep me occupied.  However, Tom’s of Maine recently challenged our family to do the “Silly Strawberry Swap” and replace our current toothpaste with their natural [...]

Black Friday vs. Cyber Monday – What’s Your Pick?

by QuatroMama on November 28, 2011

I went Black Friday shopping for the first time in my life this year.  My sister and I tackled Walmart and Kohl’s and lived to tell about it… Parking in a parking lot down the road because the entire lot was full, fighting the mobs like a sporting event, no shopping carts, digging through stashes [...]
