I emptied out my iPhone today, so might post some of these pics, I suppose. Watching the snow fall together (a couple weeks ago. Today was 88 degrees). We were eating dinner last week and he had this twinkle in his eye I wanted to capture. Obviously the sun was setting right behind him and... Continue Reading →
Just one more month until this baby turns a year old! Hold on, I just dropped something. This teddy bear was mine when I was little. I love to see it getting love again. Alone yet together. The best way to be, in my opinion. I can see him as a 19-year-old in this picture. He... Continue Reading →
Brandon is potty-trained! At home, during the day, that is. So no, not really, but I am counting it. It is a beautiful thing to only change one child's diapers. I'm wondering how soon I can start Holden. Could we finish out 2015 without diapers, for example? I think I'll try with him around 18... Continue Reading →
Here are a couple pictures from January: Holden is pulling himself up on furniture, falling, and hitting his head whenever possible. But his devilish grin is so cute and I can't help but squeeze him tightly and whisper to him that he's my sweet little baby. Sweet nothings, to be sure, because "sweet" doesn't describe...

Brandon and I might have met a Playdate Material kid at the park today (yes, read that like the kid version of "marriage material"). We go to the park a lot, and not just the park, but also to the children's mueseum, the zoo, and other places where kids and moms are often loitering about.... Continue Reading →
Here is Holden with Grandma on Christmas. She got him this adorable jacket and you can tell he likes it. He is a G. This is my niece Mila. She and Brandon are ten weeks apart, so you'd think they'd be friends. Maybe some day they will be, but for now, they compete with each... Continue Reading →
This year kicked off with me being let go from my job in my third trimester of pregnancy. Although that was humbling and humiliating, it ended up being good for us as we finally decided I would stay home after Holden was born. I spent the two weeks in between being let go and starting...

We just returned from our Christmas vacation in Washington, and I've got a yoga DVD and a hot bath calling my name, so I will just quickly post a picture of each of my boys this Christmas.Steve got me Photoshop Elements for Christmas, so be sure there will be more pictures, once I edit some...

I can't look at this picture and not laugh. He is such a silly baby. We have had a surprising warm snap around here. I mean, fifty some degrees! I ran outside last weekend and looks like I'll be able to do it again this weekend. No complaints here! I took a picture of Brandon... Continue Reading →
Steve and I often marvel at how Holden has never been sick. We chalk up our good fortune to not sending him to daycare. Just another wise parenting choice we have made! We are awesome at this! And then on Monday night, he got sick. Monday night was the first time I've ever seen projectile... Continue Reading →
