Sooooo,  I was thinking I might “shop for” customers. Ya know if there was something you were looking for but haven’t been able to find it or didn’t have the time to dig around in flea markets?  You could drop me an email and let me know. Give me a price you’d like to pay […]

Lucas at 13 months

You cute little guy. You seem to grow before my eyes now. Each time I look at you I just can’t believe how big you are.  You are shining more and more each week. You’ve got spunk and preferences and silliness and sweetness all wrapped up in your yummy little self. You often come over […]

starry nights and days

I finally finished the star pillows set. They are well loved by all the children.  The biggest one turned out ginormous! It’s like a monster starfish. Now pillows are great for laying on, but the boys mostly carry them and throw them around. That big one is bigger than Lucas, but he sure tries to […]

Keely at 8 1/2

Keely you are 8 1/2 now. You are in third grade. You love all the social-ness of school, but not so much the work.  You have friends and seem to be liked by most of your peers. You try very hard to not ever get in trouble at school. Math is still a big struggle […]

chatter

I decided I’d pretend like I knew how to paint yesterday.  It didn’t turn out too bad. I may try another next week.  Spring is here for sure now. There is pollen covering every surface. Ryan came home last night and said, “What, do we now live in Pollenesia?” We just finished up watching Downton […]

springy

We decided to spring-up the house yesterday.  I gave the crepe paper flower garland from Oh Happy Day a try.  We strung it up on our mantle.  Then Milo saw some garden themed sensory box pictures on my computer with me and said we had to, just had to make one.  He did a lot […]

Some Bunny, Any Bunny

Happy first day of Spring! We woke up to so much fog.  All the blossoms look so dreamlike against the heavy, cloudy air. I decided in honor of spring tonight is “Bring Some Bunny To Dinner, Any Bunny Will Do.” That’s right. Everyone must bring some kind of rabbit- a stuffed one, a picture of […]

a parade and a game

Everyone was healthy on St. Patrick’s. That is no small feat in our home. We made it to the parade and got the kids to scream and go crazy to earn their beads and candy.  Lucas was dancing to the marching bands and woo-hooing at everything we woo-hoo’ed at. The weather was great too. ********* […]

good luck with all that

So Saint Patrick’s Day is upon us. We haven’t really done much before for this little holiday, but I’m thinking this year we should. We need some silly festivities.  Luckily, 0ur neighborhood is on the end of the route of a really large St. Patrick’s Day Parade so we’ve got that going for us.   I’ve […]
