...Tonight I am 33. You can say it. I'm old. We started the day early. Way too early. I tried to figure out a way to get the toilet in every shot from the day but this is the only one where it w...
...I desperately need to feel like at least one area in our house is done. Complete. Finished. So I am now considering the foyer a room and calling it done. Mirror (thanks, Mom). * Rug (yes, the new ...
After a few seasons hiatus, I will be watching The Bachelorette again tonight. And I really, really hope the guy arriving in the helicopter is Chris Harrison suited up to be a "contestant,"...
...everyone's smiling, everyone's looking at the camera, and I only had to photoshop the bags under ONE of our eyes.
When I am up too late, entirely too late, way too late, seeing this in the kid's bathroom at the top of the stairs makes the fact that I'm only going to get four hours of sleep somehow slig...
...for understanding...for sharing...for loving her (almost) as much as I did. "Not the least hard thing to bear when they go from us, these quiet friends, is that they carry away with them so m...
Two years. Hard to believe. It still feels like she's at a trip to my mom and dad's and will come panting in the door any minute. Even though she wouldn't know this door. And she would...
...and I have to say, if I never hear the Thomas theme song again, I think I'd be OK. Although I've already decided it will be the mother-son song at his wedding. (Picture from Charlie'...
...I told you about the one perfect spiral curl Clara has on the top of her head, right? The humidity of the last week has made it even sweeter: ...we have landscaping and the sweet smell of mulch: ....
...he's three
...I love that Charlie wakes up to this every morning: ...I love our driveway: ...I love her eyelashes. I love that she is getting up on all fours and starting to move. I love that today she went fro...
...I want to share pictures of the house, I really really do, but there's still so much to do and I don't want to show her off until she's ready. Kind of like modeling the pink sequine...
...Feeling a lot like The Hangover. Complete with baby-wearing men (pardon Ken's head injury, the result of a dermatological procedure, not me beating him over the head about finishing unpacking...
...I found a spare square foot in my new scrapbook room so I could participate in today’s Studio Calico blog blitz featuring some of my favorite new products. My box of SC goodies was among the last ...
No? Me neither.
Still waiting for him to look at me and say it, but with Charlie, I know this is just the beginning... And thanks to gamma for capturing it.
...We did win the mega millions. You didn't know I have a side job at McDonald's? Momma's gotta pay for all those happy meals some way. (I love the number of calls/texts/Facebook messa...
...no Internet, no phone, no tv. Primitive living at its best. How did people from the 1930's survive without an iPhone? We are home.
...in the midst of our craziness, Clara graduated last week from the physical therapy she was receiving through Maryland's Infants and Toddlers program for low-tone and torticollis. Since she is...
...and by games, I mean, "It's a good thing Ken took the week off work to assemble all this IKEA furniture."
...thank you. From the bottom of our hearts. I woke up today feeling not as alone as yesterday. Charlie woke up the same happy, well-adjusted boy he was yesterday. And I think his eyelashes grew anot...
"He was slow in learning to talk. 'My parents were so worried,' he later recalled, 'that they consulted a doctor'...He had such difficulty with language that those around him...
...also serves as a sneak peak of our lives right now. BUT I DON'T CARE. Because these boxes? These boxes just mean I am one day closer to not scrapbooking on a 2x4 IKEA outdoor table.
...in nine days we will be sleeping here under the big country sky (with no police helicopters. How odd). Well, I guess I probably won't be sleeping in the great room. I might sleep in the kitch...
...always a mountain hawk. I stopped at Mercer's awesome rental last night (we are living parallel lives, but I'll save that for another post) after visiting Molly Marine and my phone start...
...carrying this little papoose in the Baby Bjorn for the better part of four hours: ...because there was lots to do. And decisions to be made. Who knew there were 6,267 shades of gray? (Notice that ...
...charlie woke up early. And we realized that Clara was still asleep and had been that way for the last 13 hours. So we celebrated (in our heads, because any loud celebration might WAKE THE BABY). A...
...and today, I asked him to smile: ...and this made me smile, seeing the wood floor I love and the tile floor I love. Together. Like they were meant to be:
...and every day it gets a little harder to drive away from our little house in the big woods. Editor's Note: Charlie was wrapped around my knees while I was taking this picture and the guy turn...
...a kitchen! Charlie says, "um, can you push the island just a smidgen this way?" View from the eating area: View from the pantry: I lovingly refer to this as the Heidi-nook. Ken came up w...
