  • Trial Run–LOTS of pics

    If you follow this blog you know I’m a little obsessed with getting pictures of my kids, particularly on special occasions. Well, Easter is coming up, and it is such a wonderful day, but usually quite busy. We don’t even get to go to church together, b/c I’m always singing and have to go early. […]

  • The beginning of the end…

    Today Sydney’s nap schedule was a little off from Carson’s, so she woke up way before he did. I really needed to finish working on dinner for this evening, so I set her in the high chair and handed over…her very first graham cracker. Aaah! She loved it, and I loved that it kept her […]

  • No buyers remorse here

    Don’t you love it when you feel like you made a good purchase? You may remember last June when I was WAY preggo, we decided to invest in a swingset for our backyard. It’s not a very expensive one, but it has what we needed. Last summer it was a lifesaver, as we were pretty […]

  • From the Department of DUH:

  • THIS is a cool hat.

    Last summer I was hanging out with my hubby & some of his colleagues. One coworker “tattled” on another, saying they had seen SoandSo riding a bike….WITHOUT A HELMET! Oh my word, by the shameful gasps that went up in that place and the accusatory looks, you would have thought SoandSo was caught swigging vodka […]

  • Last sales pitch…

    Tuesday update: OK, this will be the last post dedicated to this, I promise! Or no one will check my blog ever again. Just a couple things: someone reminded me to tell you that these do not have to go directly on walls. They also work well on frames, wood MDF boards, etc. In fact, […]

  • Personality?

    I think yes. And some to spare. Thanks to the Sweet Pumpkins for the Costco cart picture idea. And your Carsonism for the day: Today we were driving around town and saw a couple walking on the sidewalk. Carson: Are those humans our neighbors?

  • Pride cometh before a dirty tissue

    We’ve all had a touch of a cold lately. I’ve been pretty proud of Carson for getting his own tissue…sometimes I remind him, but the independence of getting it himself has been nice. The snot is often smeared across the face rather than removed from the nostril, but…WHATEVER. Baby steps. Then this conversation last night: […]
