Today my sweet friend, Mama Kat had an option to link up a vlog about your kids wearing helmets while on bikes….and I was all, oh my word! What do you know?!? I TOTALLY have a video to share all about that….
As well as one on Homeschooling….
and Girls Night Out….
Basically, all the latest from The Mommalogues!
Oh the topic of homeschooling. Doesn’t it just sound so fun? Being with your kids all day long???? Getting to teach them things and have them listen and adore and admire you because you are the one with the knowledge?!? In all actuality, I am in the minority with a lot of my friends in what I think about that whole thing. And while I may have my own thoughts, I definitely agree that we are each in a different place with different gifts, and that is the beauty of America. You do what keeps you sane, and I’ll do what keeps me sane. And we’ll all be happy together in the long run. Now watch to see the look I gave my husband the day he suggested homeschooling….
I love my girls. They are my lifeline and my heart and my laugher and my happy place. And I’m not necessarily talking about the SkinnyGirl I hang out with in the bubble bath some nights. Okay, that counts as girls night too….But, here’s what I really do with my girls, and why I need it so.
Taylor likes to push the boundaries. Have you noticed? (that’s a therapy talk for another day.) And wearing his helmet is just one of the ways he likes to test the boundaries. Thankfully, God made me just a little smarter than him, and I think I may have found a way to scare him into submission. Watch and learn.
And here’s the others from the week you may have missed:
But my FAVORITE one?
That one is coming up tomorrow (Friday). It’s the one where I bring in Jimmy….and you can finally see why sometimes we’re referred to as, The Odd Couple.
Hi. Larious.
Be sure to check it out!

LOVE the homeschooling vlog….I happen to feel the same way! I even considered it at one point, but it didn’t take much to bring me back to reality! I think it’s a wonderful option for those who have the patience for it, though.

OK on the homeschooling — I secretly covet it. Well, not THAT exactly, just the being home part b/c I want to throw staplers way too often in the office. At people. At people’s foreheads.
On going out — I will agree and then bail at the last minute b/c I get tired b/c I have kids and my hair usually almost always sucks.
As for helmets — the girls try to get out of it (it’s going to mess up my hair, MOOOOOOM!) but the boy will walk around, bikeless, in the house, in the helmet. Usually he’s wearing a diaper on his arm and a sock as a glove but that’s beside the point.
Seriously in love w/your blog and glad I found it this morning.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the Homeschooling blog!!! I have two children, my oldest? HAHAHAHAHARIGHTHOMESCHOOLINGHAHAHAHAHA. Never gonna happen! Unless we sedate him first. My Daughter I would gladly homeschool, but I’m afraid she’d end up teaching me and grading MY papers.
I homeschool my kids and I totally agree with you, what works for some families will not work for others. And we are all good mothers because a happy mama= a happy family!
WAIT! I LOVE YOUR HAIR! Looking FAB! I also love secretly hiding in the closet! Ohhh the hilarity of your videos Summer! And Also, agree with the homeschooling. Although I am not a momma yet (hah good guess though, wait does it look like i am?! OHHHHHmg! Gym. Pronto. Ugh) Okay!
And I am anxiously awaiting your 4th video tomorrow! Bring it ladycakes! xox!
I’ve thought about it ( now mind you I don’t have kids yet) and I’ve known and seen so many kids respond really well to home schooling. Well adjusted, intelligent, graduating early, mature. But I’m in your boat, I don’t think I’d be able to do it. I think there’s nothing wrong with letting them go to school but being involved and monitoring their progress.
Can we have a girls weekend!? Meet in the middle? Amarillo, TX? I checked the map, it’s in the middle. Just sayin’.
Muah!
PS I need to do these Mommalogues. How fun.
