Big-girl potty! This girl! Already! The specifics: Number two, two times in two days, @ two weeks shy of twenty-two months.
We’re just killing some time this morning waiting for the roads to clear so we can get a haircut! And new shoes! I love that this is exciting at any age. In the meantime, I thought some indoor snowmen would … Continue reading
Last week, I took Bastien to urgent care because: A. He has had a never-ending cold since September B. He had a sudden onset of yellow mucus coming out of his eyes C. His dentist gasped when he saw how … Continue reading
Lately I’ve been enjoying the privilege of working during daylight hours, rather than my former approach of cranking out all my freelance work at night. This glamorous new lifestyle is making me lazy as all get out at the end … Continue reading
Against all better judgement, last night we used our Costco rebate to buy a TV for our bedroom. This thing is sweet and I’m not afraid to admit it. Not just because it comes loaded with Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, Amazon … Continue reading
Hours of weekend fun, facilitated by dad. To which I add, it’s a darn good thing we splurged for the Scotch Tape deal at Costco.
We interrupt this regularly schedule Funtime Friday to MAKE SOME MONEY. I have been showered with work assignments this week and have quite suddenly found the need for a more reliable childcare option. So, Thursday night we toured a Drop-in … Continue reading
Just so we can all get our baby fix, I present to you one of the finest. Be still, my heart. Oh smoosh, smoosh, smoosh. Babies like Adam make any day great.
Remember these days? He kicked the habit! Of his own accord, (and just five days shy of turning 3 and 1/2), Bastien threw his three remaining pacifiers in the garbage on Tuesday morning. He asked for them once all day … Continue reading
We have such a case of the Februaries. My kids are just about the miserablest people you ever want to meet. I would give my BOTH arms to be happily sitting in some office, reading this blog, rather than right … Continue reading
Here’s cutie patootie in the Valentine sweater I knit for her last year. I was able to add on a few more inches of ruffle at the bottom so she could get another year out of it. I might not … Continue reading
That laborious project I referenced here is done and done. In fact, we spent the day Sunday driving around and hand-delivering all the hand-made Valentine packages we could. It warmed my heart to stop by at just the moment my … Continue reading
We are going swimming this morning. The kids are dressing themselves. I have never seen such determination.
The last time we visited my Grandma, Hadley ate all the icing off her sugar cookies. So when we visited this week, my Grandma made a fresh batch of cookies. And also a plate of frosting globs reserved just for … Continue reading
You’ve all seen this commercial by now. I know, because I’ve seen it on your blog or FB status too. Well, when Bastien saw it – let’s just say it actually blew his mind. Immediately he wanted to be like … Continue reading
In the event that you thought firefighters did not wear princess heels, you’ve now been proven wrong.
I am like knee deep in my own unending brilliant Valentine crafting. In the meantime, I find out from Bastien’s preschool that he needs to bring 26 valentines for the class. This week. The project I’m currently working on is … Continue reading
Trying to juggle popcorn and anxious kids. Here we are at the big show!
This is a snapshot of a somewhat typical weeknight for us. And now you know who you’re dealing with. The nerdliest of nerds.
