teamLesan: Baby's First Passport Stamp
http://teamlesan.blogspot.com/2011/07/babys-first-passport-stamp.html
Somewhere in Middle America. Tuesday, July 19, 2011. Baby's First Passport Stamp. This spring was full of adventures! I love that all my kids have passports and Spain stamps in them! Next to potty-training Ellie, I consider taking our children abroad at a young age perhaps our greatest parenting accomplishment to date. Here is a representative smattering of our week in Barcelona. Medieval knights and Barcelona/Catalan history museum. What could be better? The most amazing part of the Valencia Cathedral i...

Somewhere in Middle America. Tuesday, September 06, 2011. I don't know how to can, but I went to a farm and picked up 140 pounds of tomatoes and had a jolly good time there and then I made sauces and spent all night canning with some friends and came home at 1:00 in the morning feeling like I'd turned into a tomato and then a tomato seed fell out of my hair. The End. If you are related to me, you are required to read the unabridged version. Do we want tomatoes from Farmer Monte? All of them.". Well, it's...

teamLesan: December 2010
http://teamlesan.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Somewhere in Middle America. Tuesday, December 28, 2010. When was the last time you played the game of Life? Ellie's career card was "salesperson," with an starting annual income of $20,000, maximum salary of $50,000, and taxes of $5,000. 45,000. Steep, but you don't pay them unless you land on the "pay taxes" box. I felt pretty confident. Ellie didn't land on "rent apartment," but she managed to hit "Inheritance! Ellie won the Ultimate Idol TV show and collected $100,000. I had twins. Now another choice...

teamLesan: On the Occasion of Seven
http://teamlesan.blogspot.com/2011/01/on-occasion-of-seven.html
Somewhere in Middle America. Sunday, January 02, 2011. On the Occasion of Seven. Seven years ago today Rob and I were married in the Salt Lake temple. Seven years! Here we are now, a little more grown up, on a rather chilly day but in much more comfortable shoes:. What starts as something small and simple becomes bigger and more meaningful as time moves forward. So there's my romantic anniversary message: love is like a domain name. Happy 7th, RCLIII. I love being on your team! You truly are a great team!

Somewhere in Middle America. Monday, August 22, 2011. On being a deliberate mom. Well, if you aren't familiar with the Power of Moms website, here it is:. I don't have a good answer. Well, at least I don't have a good answer for what she will be doing. I've had a busy few weeks working on some projects, and Rob has had some work responsibilities that have kept him at the office from way before dawn until way after bedtime. Platinum prize is a trip to Salt Lake for a Power of Moms retreat? Sunshine. h...

teamLesan: January 2011
http://teamlesan.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Somewhere in Middle America. Saturday, January 29, 2011. There are a lot of things I could write about this cartoon. Many years before Rob and I had children, I watched my sisters and incredulously declared, "Wow, you just have to entertain them all day long. If you want to read a book or write an essay you can't do it! The children are always there! There's a lot to say about where I was then compared to where I am now. Or at least where I should be now. Only one child may cry at a time. Except in case ...

Joseph, Jenni, Owen & Catherine: May 2011
http://josephandjennihinckley.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Joseph, Jenni, Owen and Catherine. May 25, 2011. Last week began the packing and packing and more packing week. I didn't think it would take us so long to pack but every time I turned around there was another cupboard I forgot about and more things to decide if we keep or toss. Every night I would think- OK we will finish tonight, but no such luck we were packing up to the bitter end. Owen and Uncle Spencer packing up the truck. Links to this post.

Somewhere in Middle America. Tuesday, September 21, 2010. Chuck vs. the Obsession. Have I mentioned our obsession with obsessions? Sometimes we get obsessed with things. A few years ago, we saw a commercial for a new show called Chuck on NBC - it looked like a quirky spy comedy, and we decided to tune in for the pilot. We liked it, and went back for a second week. Then we were hooked. I'm proud to say we've watched every episode since, and we own the past three seasons on DVD. Last night I presented Rob ...
