And Then You Were One…

One week ago our Ladybug turned one…
She had a wonderful weekend full of visiting with friends, family and a few treats.

Merry Christmas!

From our family to yours, we hope you have a safe, fun and blessed holiday season.

Foodie Friday

Last week my paternal grandfather and our entire family celebrated his eightieth birthday.

Yesterday was Peanut’s first day back at pre-school. He has grown so much this summer…

The evenings were filled with laughter, fun and MJ having the perfect [...]

A Wise Woman Once Told Me…

To never set down your knitting in the middle of a row, unless your hair was on fire. (We miss you Pam <3) Lordy, do I wish I’d listened. We’ve been so busy that it feels like I committed the terrible sin Pam always warned me about. I feel like I’ve been running in place [...]

Last Night…

Both our children slept until 7:50 am this morning. It was amazing!
And, I finally made it to the heel of Tidal Wave sock #2!
A pretty great day!

Welcome…

Baby Ella was born last Friday in the early evening after 36 hours of induction and labor…
She was under 7 pounds and is just the tiniest little thing! She’s been a great baby, sleeps well, eats well and is a doll. Her jaundice levels have been high so we’ve been tied to a biliblanket (a [...]

We love you [...]
