About Me

Hi. I"m living in the Northeast with my supportive hubby, 2 great girls and toddler son. I run a home based business around scrapbooking and rubber stamping and love everything about those crafts! I also work p/t as a Physician Assistant in Internal Medicine...back after a 10 year hiatus to take care of the kids--loving that, too!

Happy Father's Day...


Just a quick note to wish all the Daddys out there a very special day. We tried to do a little geocaching this morning, but church was in session, so we'll have to back on a Saturday! Off next to test drive a new minivan and then head off to the sweet Air Conditioning of the MOVIES! Hope everyone is having a great day!

Unofficial start of summer!




















Time for an update here at the Khashab household as we get ready to wrap up the school
year and head into Summer. Memorial Day
weekend was quiet, and we played outside a bit. Aileen and her family came over for a bbq
and Joey spent a bunch of time outside playing with the girls and chasing Adam around the yard. It's been really hot here until today when we finally got a break from the heat. Last week, Adam had his first run in a sprinkler at our neighbors house. He wasn't too sure of it, but loved having Yasmeen grab him and run through the water with him. When not completely entertained, he will find his own amusement...usually in a way that is not to Mommy's liking. Take for example, his quiet retrieval of my makeup bag. After 5 minutes of him not responding to my calls and not coming into the scrap room like he normally does when
he's not barricaded in the family room, I found him looking like that picture above. Yep, full of makeup and the contents of my bag thrown everywhere. Gotta love toddlers!!! On a less naughty note, he is officially Daddy's car crazy son! Thanks to several moments of driving on Mohammed's video game steering wheel
and watching endless races on TV, he is absolutely nuts about cars. Way to go, Mohammed, grooming him early for a career in racing!! He won't even watch cartoons anymore. Today he loudly demanded 'CARS' when I tried to let him watch Barney. And when I didn't change the channel immediately, he made his proclamation even louder! I got stuck watching some weird racing wrap up show on the Speed channel while he happily watched the TV all the while saying "cars, cars, cars". We also had Leena's dance recital this past Saturday. She was gorgeous in her costume and danced confidently...we're very proud of her. Yasmeen has been absent from TKD this past week, but she did meet her requirements for the next promotional test later this month! I'm getting ready for my scrapbooking classes and tying up loose ends with service hours and Girl Scouts. Soon, the hazy, lazy days of summer will be here...well, not that lazy since we have summer enrichment, music camp, travel and all the fun of the outdoors to experience. See you soon!
