So where are you all going this weekend?? Us? Absolutely nowhere.nothing.nada.zilcho.not going anywhere.not leaving the house. But we are going to see a few friends this weekend, or rather, they are going to come and see us, because we are going.... Absolutely nowhere.nothing.nada.zilcho.not going anywhere.not leaving the house. And I like it that way! So yes, ME who finds it too strenuous sometimes to pack up all 3 of our...
Let me tell you a little story. A story about a guy. A guy who is just like me, or my husband, or you. He has a family, and a toddler, and a wife with another baby on the way. He is a real person, who lives on a farm. A farm that his grandfather, and his father, and now he lives on. He wakes up at 2:00am to fix...
Time for the real work to begin on the garden. In Part 1, we removed the old garden. Part 2, we marked out where we needed the new boxes and moved out the old plants we were keeping. Part 3 was more of a funny update, as I realized how many of the Little toys we were using in preparing for the new garden! In Part 4, a WHOLE lotta...
Our house is in the the middle of this year's swim lessons. Last year the girls started in April. This year, I choose to wait until May so that Piper would be the same age as Hayden was last year, 14 months. Now while this post isn't about swim lessons (It's in the line up to come though) it is about the sweet rewards for being brave and giving it...
I love House Beautiful. (and I love that you can also look at it online) I do a little happy jig when I see it in my mailbox. Being that I don't really have tons of time for magazines these days (months? years?) I really only get a couple, and I LOVE the mini vaca when I read them over a cup of coffee (while also checking emails, locked in...
So you saw Piper's Room (though a week after showing you, I got the itch to rearrange...there will be another post soon...). This is Addie & Hay's room. I wish I had taken photos when it was just Addie's Nursery. Actually, I'm sure I did, it's just they would have been taken prior to my writing this blog, therefore WHO KNOWS where they are.... The thing to know is that...
Teething. It pretty much bites (sorry, had to do it!) Luckily we've never had it REALLY bad. At least with Addie and Hayden, Hyland Teething Tablets were out and worked WONDERS! Seriously, the kids would instantly stop crying. But then a recall happened around the time Piper started teething. Fabulous. (Both in that the others had been using it, and also in that I could no longer use it. We...
It's been a long road. And the road isn't over yet. This is me today, and me back in December. This was a photo that I sent out with a tweet back in February (around Week 12). I felt like a MILLION dollars that day! Those are jeans I wore before Addie was born. Let me say that again... I FELT LIKE A MILLION DOLLARS! It really didn't matter what...
