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.

Going Out with a Bang
Today was my last official day at the office. Of course now that I think about it, I can’t recall either of my bosses actually saying bye to me when they left. I’ll probably get a call on Tuesday with questions about where the heck I am. All of the other staff however chipped in and gave me a lovely card and a nice little gift that I can go out and blow at Babies R Us. I love a good gift card… or three! Wasn’t that nice? It was nice that they took the time to put that together. And now I’ll have something to do next week between stinking doctor’s appointments. Read the rest of this entry »

Check It Out :: Mallow Munchies
Amazingly I remembered to take a picture before I ripped the package open and completely devoured the contents. Doesn’t it seem like I’m always apologizing for pictures taken after the fact? Sorry, I almost ate all of this before I took a picture but, after all, it was delicious. But I digress. Ben pointed out this stand to me this morning knowing I have a weakness for rice crispy treats. A weakness so great in fact that I will resort to eating the ones in the blue foil. I have however thus far managed not to buy a super-sized box of them at Costco and now I won’t ever have to. Read the rest of this entry »

The Great Pumpkin
We hit the pumpkin patch today. Not the best idea after a day of torrential downpours but we made the most of it. Plus, I wasn’t that lady that wiped out in the mud. Nope, not this time.
I had one of those grass is always greener moments and decided to try North Run instead of just going to Webber’s. That was a mistake. Now I know better and also feel compelled to go to Webber’s before it closes for the season. I’ll probably try to squeeze in another visit sometime this week against my better judgment. I’ll figure it out. Read the rest of this entry »

Stepping Out
I’m trying to put some miles on the owls dress while the season is right. Our girl is ready to be out and about in the big city and wearing the poncho her grandma made her too. She’s all set. Except for shoes. She’s going to need a pair of everyday shoes. Something to bridge the gap between her running shoes and her boots. I need shoes too. I can’t even think about shoe shopping this weekend though. Maybe next week. I still haven’t taken the dive into shoe shopping online. Maybe on day. Read the rest of this entry »

Public Service Announcement
This is the last weekend for the State Fair. You must go! We had so much fun. We all did… I think. How could you not? Chase didn’t want to help me milk a cow or pet a calf but she did pet one of these tiny pink piglets. They suckled like crazy. Mama just lay there, sound asleep with her tongue hanging out of her mouth. In some ways I Read the rest of this entry »

Market Weekend
I woke up with the sun this morning. I finally stopped fighting it, got out of bed, made myself a cup of decaf, but still no signs of life from upstairs. Left to my own defenses I came up with a list of things to do and convinced myself that I was up for another market run. We used to go to the downtown market a lot but for the last year or two have switched to a walkable market Read the rest of this entry »

Better!
Thanks for all the great snack ideas. I picked up cheese, nuts, salsa and a bunch of fruit among other things and I am feeling much better. I also did a tiny bit of menu planning. I have 5 meals planned for the week and I am cautiously optimistic that I can keep up. I did buy a frozen pizza just in case I need a plan b. I probably should have done more prep tonight than I did but Chase was crying first about her teeth (I can see her second set of molars coming in) Read the rest of this entry »

Sunday
Cheers! I accidentally titled my post Cheers last night even though I didn’t end up writing anything at all that pertained to the word. What I was thinking about was the dinner we had with our neighbors on Friday night. On Friday I had court in Belair in the afternoon. Belair is probably less than an hour from here but it’s still a jurisdiction that I don’t get out to that often. Even though they have a huge big-box shopping district they also have a super cute main street. I took some time to look around on Friday since I didn’t have to be on the clock all day. I stopped into Tiny Toes, an extra-cute baby children’s boutique. The kind where you can get into a lot of trouble. Then I stopped into Cafe Savona for a sandwich and, this is where I get to the point, I picked up some frozen pizza Read the rest of this entry »

Organizing
I came home from errands this morning with a car full of boxes and crates. Ben rolled his eyes but unloaded it anyway. Did I mention that I also had 200 lbs of sand in there? Mmm, sandbox. But that’s another story. It feels good to have gotten this shelf straightened out. It was a horrible mess and an eyesore for a long time. I’m hoping that just keeping the stuff contained will help to keep it organized over the long haul. I find that once the bags start to get shuffled around on the shelf it’s the beginning of the end. Things only get worse from there.
I don’t know if using the fabric boxes is a smart idea but we’ll see. They’re mostly filled with dry goods so hopefully they stay as pretty as they are now. I was going to go to IKEA Read the rest of this entry »
