I Can!

Avery’s pretty excited because she can hold things!  We’ve been shifting that ring around here for months but today she finally wrapped her tiny little fingers around it.  She really did look pretty amazed that she was holding something so interesting. Read the rest of this entry »

Spring

We are love, love, loving it.  With the sunshine comes longer days and afternoons of playing with friends.  Really good times. What I didn’t expect to rear its ugly head is a whole lot of social awkwardness.  Just call me the queen of awkward silences.  I can’t think of a single interesting thing to say.  Not a one.  So I’m watching 500 Days of Summer.   A popular film that will hopefully be interesting enough for me to engage others in conversation over.   Read the rest of this entry »

My Babushka

I’m sort of a one trick pony.  I’ll admit it.  I like to take pictures of Chase wearing my sunglasses and of Avery wearing this pixie hat.  I can’t say enough good things about Shannon or Sweet Pepita, the stuff is CUTE.  I love this hat.  Love it.  And I’m sure it’s no coincidence that it matches her car seat.  It’s almost too much.   Read the rest of this entry »

And The Doctor Said

It’s only been three months but Chase finally put on the doctor’s coat that I made her for Christmas.  All of a sudden yesterday she decided that playing dress up was fun.  It’s great because it’s something she’ll do for a while by herself.

You’ve Got A Little Something…

right there, and there, oh, and on the tip of your nose too.  How does that saying go?  Go big or go home?  So if you’re going to make marshmallows early in the morning for some reason that no one remembers, just do it.  Use this recipe and make all 24.

Amazing

Lately, when I need to kill a little time at home I draw mazes for Chase.  I try to make each one a super stumper but she’s pretty darn good at mazes.  I wonder how long she’ll be into this.  It’s awesome because they really do eat up a lot of time and she likes them so much that she’s willing to wait patiently while I draw them one at a time.   One day she’ll figure out that you can buy them by the book full, no waiting needed.

Sunny, Quiet, Lovely Sunday

Chase ate a great big hearty supper so I’m cautiously optimistic that things will only get better.  Please let them only get better!

Well, another weekend comes to a close.  Even though I wish we had another day and I’m so not ready for it to be Monday tomorrow we ended on a pretty Read the rest of this entry »

I Love Weekends!

How I love the ACC show!  This is the third year I’ve made the trek down there for it but the first time I’ve been for free and you know how I love free!  It felt so luxurious to wander around and actually have some time to look and think and sometimes talk, you know, all at the same time.   Read the rest of this entry »

Happy Friday!

Another week over.  Tomorrow is just jam packed with stuff to do.  ACC here we come!  I’m in the market for some new mugs.  I bought a set of two nice porcelain mugs not too long ago but as we were down to nothing two just isn’t going to cut it.

I can’t believe how excited I am to go to this show.  Ben and Chase are going to have some daddy daughter time because I just don’t think she’d have much fun with my yelling don’t touch that! the whole time.

I’ve got my battery charged, I’m ready!  Stay tuned.

Crazy Craft Day

We watched an hour of tv this morning and I hadn’t had one single additional request to watch by the time we left here today at 3:30!  I’m patting myself on the back here big time for keeping busy during a day spent at home.   Read the rest of this entry »
