My kids and I love singing before bed each night. Our favorite song has to be the itsy bitsy spider. We sing the whole song through several times. Of course we do all of the hand motions and jump around too. It is a great and fun way to spend time with our kids and make them feel special before bed time.

You have to take pictures and videos of your kids. Why? Because they will ask for it. Can you imagine being old and alone and wanting to see your kids but you can’t? Well you can if you take pictures and videos of them. I suggest doing a hard drive, dvd, and web YouTube backup of everything to make triple sure.

The Fourth of July is a special holiday. It holds so many wonderful memories for me and my family. Barbecues and fireworks and lounging in the pool. I hope you have a wonderful and safe Fourth of July. Please remember to watch your kids around water.

At some point in an infants life they will switch from three naps per day to two. Then as they age from two naps per day to only one nap per day. Every parent knows that multiple nap times are like a gift from heaven for your sanity. To preserve the two nap times as long as possible try and keep a strict schedule of bed times, meals, and awake times. When the switch does occur do everything possible to insure it is a long and restful single nap.

I do not know why but my son is very fussy after a nap. Maybe it is just the time of day. Or maybe it has to do with his sleep. He usually wakes up very fussy no matter how long his nap was. A snack and some down time usually help. The worst is when friends are over when he wakes up. I guess he needs extra attention at this time.

Now that summer is here things can get pretty hot outside. My kids and I hate being stuck in the house. And we do not have a pool. So we basically spend all summer playing in the sprinklers and the hose. It is so much fun and everyone really enjoys it. The risk of drowning is greatly reduced and we all have a great time staying cool. Give it a try.

This Father’s day was very special to my family. We had my parents over for a barbecue. The grill broke but amazingly my dad was able to fix it just in time. We had some fun gifts and good food. The cards this year seemed to be particularly funny. Did you have a special Father’s Day as well? Remember the fathers in your life today and celebrate them.

Target Archery is a great sport for kids and adults alike. This is a competitive and popular sport that I highly recommend. Almost anyone from any ability level or physical level can participate. It is a great way to get kids outdoors and involved in something. Target Archery also makes a great family activity. Give it a try for yourself.
