January 1, 2018July 8, 2020 Cascia Talbert

I am back! After taking a year off to finish writing my book I am finally back to updating this blog and writing articles for my online magazine, The Healthy Moms Magazine.

I am excited, relieved and nervous about getting my first book published. If it is a success there will be more to come. What have we been up…

Cicadas – #WordlessWednesday with #linky on a Tuesday

August 16, 2016December 2, 2019 Cascia Talbert

This time of year the cicadas are out buzzing in the tree tops. Cecadas are large insects that are known for the loud calls of the males or the buzzing sound. They come out late in the summer here in the Mid West to mate. They also molt and shed their outer shell. Over the weekend, Monkey found 50 cicada shells in Grandpa’s yard. I had him and his brother pose to show them off. This is a live cicada. You have to look closely because he is camouflaged and…

Little Monkey turned seven on Sunday. We went to mass, then I frosted his birthday cake. Later that night we went out for pizza at Nick’s Pizza and Pub.

Weekend Reflection #40 We are Going to the Moon

July 1, 2016December 2, 2019 Cascia Talbert

This was first posted to the Healthy Moms Magazine on January 11, 2009. Back then I was a mother of three children ages 11, 3 and 1. The Talbert family lived in Sacramento, CA in 2009. I’m sorry I’m posting this late. This week was pretty busy. I actually stuck with my work plan and blogged for 5-6 hours each day. I saw my traffic go up as a result. Now I know what I need to do to increase my readership on this blog. But, yesterday I decided to…

Getting Ready for Football – #WordlessWednesday with #linky on a Tuesday

June 28, 2016December 2, 2019 Cascia Talbert

Monkey has been begging Chris and I to let him play football for some time now. We finally have him signed up for the local team for young boys. He will be one of the smallest kids in the league. I am super excited for him. Chris and Monkey have been practicing tossing the football around nearly every single day. That kid has a pretty good arm, maybe he will be quarterback someday. We’ll see. Do your kids play sports? xx Visit these great blogs for more Wordless Wednesdays. …

Creative Kids Photography – #WordlessWednesday with #linky on a Tuesday

March 22, 2016December 2, 2019 Cascia Talbert

This is what happens when a bunch of crazy kids take your phone and decide to play with the camera feature. I just love the expression on Chris’ face. Monkey is silly. I don’t understand why Monkey has his shirt unbuttoned. Maybe he’s trying to impress the ladies? This is a good one. Kitty has a massive colletion of My Little Ponies these are just a few.

Sleepy Brothers – #WordlessWednesday with #linky on a Tuesday

November 3, 2015December 2, 2019 Cascia Talbert

Wordless Wednesday is live on healthymomsmagazine.net and talbertzoo.com. Link up to your Wordless Wednesday post. I snapped this photo of Monkey and Bear late last night. They share a bedroom which has a bunk bed, but both boys insist on sleeping in the lower bunk. I check on my kids right before I go to bed every night. Usually by the time I get to their bedroom the boys have their heads on opposite sides of the bed or one of them has his foot up his brother’s nose. It is…
