Cast of Characters

Been reading and enjoying but can't keep track of who is who?  Here is the breakdown:

Farmer Bob:  My Husband.  He is a hardworking farmer and very successful co-parent.  He is an amazing father and puts up with me.  For that he deserves a gold star or a cookie or something.

Mini-Me:  My 10 year old daughter.  She is quickly developing a teenagers attitude, and is so much like her mother it is frightening.  We fight like cats and dogs, but she is simply amazing!

The Boy:  My 7 year old son.  He is sensitive, thoughtful, and too smart for his own good. 

Mouse: My 6 year old daughter.  She is quiet, reserved, and loving.  If it wasn't for her, I would probably need some serious therapy.

Trouble: My 4 year old daughter.  This one has the attention span of a gnat.  She is funny, sneaky, and is destined for a career in the entertainment business.  She makes us laugh and cry all at once.

PITA:  My 2 year old son.  We always joke that it is good that we had him before we realized Trouble's full potential.  It was after this one that we decided now would be a good time to stop.  The basketball team is now full.  He is stubborn and pretty damn cute, so he gets away with more than he should

Then there is ME:  The mastermind behind this madness.  This entire blog is my idea.  Farmer Bob lets me get my brain out on this cyber paper.  His only request:  keep it anonymous.  Not that we don't trust all you lovely people, but you can just never be too careful when it comes to your littles.  Don't be offended that I don't share personal info like names with you, it's just the way I want it to be.

Thanks for joining me on this ride, and don't be afraid to email me any time at ithappensatyourhousetoo@gmail.com

  5. I absolutely love your blog! I have been addicted to mommy blogs for about a little over a year now, but I recently decided to try one of my own. After asking how to get my blog out there, all I was being sent to was crafty blog linky parties, and my crafting skills are nothing to brag about so I don't blog about them either :) My blogging inspiration came from ranting and raving, potty mouth having, not afraid to admit that motherhood is not a glamorous job women, and I was feeling so out of place. Thanks to your site and your TGIF Blog Hop, I'm starting to feel at home again! Needless to say you have a new follower, and I will be joining the hop on Friday, but if you can't wait until Friday, my blog is called Figuring it Out as we Grow, and you can find me at www.figuringitoutaswegrow.blogspot.com

  6. I LOVE your blog! As a mommy of 4 small kiddos (and 2 furry kids) I can relate and this makes me feel a little more sane--or perhaps we're just both INsane :). Thanks for sharing the craziness that we all feel!

Thanks to internet spammers, I have my comments set to moderate. Your comment will show up once I verify that you aren't trying to cure vaginal dryness, enlarge my penis, or sell me cigarettes.
