REE-diculous

May 29, 2011

DT and Dad went fishing last week and while DT was cleaning the boat the boys were having a blast playing in it. In fact Little H fell down inside and busted his eye, but that didn’t stop him. It wasn’t until he fell in a mud puddle that he started to cry, I mean really. My little [...]

A Little Horse Painting

February 23, 2011

My babies are growing up, yes they are 3, but they will be my babies forever. What I mean is just months ago I would have never had them paint inside, with clothes on, on my coffee table. The paint would have been everywhere. But now they painted and painted and painted. Sure a little [...]

Cell phone free tractors

February 16, 2011

The boys will be happy for days, since we got to go ride on the tractors. Poppy and Pop-po were plowing up their rice fields to prepare for this year’s crop. And of course we took full advantage of the tractor rides. For some reason I find it funny when farmers (aka my dad and grandpa) always [...]

2 boys and 1 potty

January 12, 2011

I am going to get phone calls and emails for posting this , but I just couldn’t help it. I think it is the cutest, sweetest, funniest thing ever. My boys may hate me when they get older for this. But…. When you have 2 boys and only 1 potty. Sometimes, they both have to [...]

Laundry Basket Lockdown

January 7, 2011

As a mother I will admit that sometimes I need a breather, a chance to take a long bath, or read a good book, or watch a movie of my choosing. Unfortunately for me and most moms, that just doesn’t often happen. So listen up ladies, I’ve invented the best method of child distraction ever. [...]

A Tractor Birthday Party

November 17, 2010

We celebrated the boy’s 3rd birthday last weekend with a tractor themed party. We rented this “train” that you pull behind a lawnmower. Really that’s all they needed, they could have ridden this thing all day, it was a hit. We also had my niece’s bouncy house. and a tractor tire full of corn, and [...]

Stuffed Corn Tortillas

July 28, 2010

In the ideal setting, I like to cook by myself, in the peace and quite of my home, where I can concentrate or even experiment with new recipes at my leisure. But in reality I live with two boys and a busy husband, this doesn’t happen very often. The boys are getting to the age [...]

First Hair Cuts….. Finally

June 29, 2010

The boys finally had their first haircuts. At approximately 2 years and 8 months old, I wasn’t sure this day would ever come. But their hair has been growing and growing and growing, it just, had a slow start that’s all. Lalo (My Mom) manned the scissors and the boys were ready to go with [...]

Reality Snaps

April 28, 2010

Just when I think the boys have out grown getting on top of the kitchen table and tearing everything up. And I might be able to leave the room to start a load of laundry. Reality snaps back to me very quickly. It’s not enough that they found the markers, but they also found my [...]

The Chicken Wrangler

April 20, 2010

New skills are developing on “the farm”. The art of Chicken Wrangling has taken hold in Little H’s heart. His victim, Sally. While she doesn’t seem to mind being held for long periods of time I can’t help but laugh (and be proud) at his enthusiasm. My love of animals has passed down to my [...]

Howdy, y’all! Welcome to my blog world. I am Sweet Pea, a 20-something Texas native and a newlywed…well, almost. We wed May 2006. Shortly after we were blessed with identical twins boys born November 2007.

My husband, whom I lovingly call Double Trouble (DT), owns and operates a trucking company, and we use our CB handles as our names here.

I however recently converted from a working mom to a stay-at-home mom. I love the new challenges that it brings and enjoy sharing my triumphs, messes, and adventures with you. I hope you enjoy reading about our busy lives with babies, cooking, gardening, trucking, and bargain shopping.
