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.

This past year has been amazing. We feel so very blessed.
We finished off the weekend with a BBQ at my parent’s house. It was a very warm and humid day, but we still had fun.
This [...]

‘Tis the Season

We recently decorated the tree. Normally, I am a ‘get the tree up after Thanksgiving’ person, but this year I am just not feeling it. I am not sure if this is due to the sleep deprivation (Ladybug wakes at least twice from 11pm to 6 am) or the sadness I am feeling about returning [...]

Peanut is sick…

It’s just a cold really. He woke up hacking and coughing with a runny nose, and I just couldn’t see sending him into school just to infect the other children (Even though that’s who prolly gave it to him in the first place). He spent the day reading with the Tag Reader (He’s loving Tinkerbell [...]

A Mommy Moment…

After I picked Peanut up from pre-school on Wednesday I decided to take him to the local Cree-mee, that’s New Englander for Ice Cream Hut. It is getting to be late in the season and many of the Cree-mee’s are already closed for the winter. Ladybug sat in her car-seat and curiously watching us lap [...]

If You’re Child is in School…

It means that germs are not far behind.
A 102.5* F temperature, the chills and body aches. Poor Peanut! <3
Since he’s resting and Ladybug is snoozin’ I’ll quickly share my Franklin County Fair findings with you…
Blue Ribbons and First Place on my February Lady Sweater, No Purl Monkey Socks (KLY Arwen), Tidal Wave Socks, 2 Skeins [...]

Fall is in the Air…

Yesterday was Peanut’s first day back at pre-school. He has grown so much this summer…
We had to raise the back of his booster seat due to his growth in height. He went up one and a half running shoe sizes. He’s almost fitting into 5T clothing sizes (mostly for length, as he’s a bean pole). [...]

Rounding Out the Summer…

We spent a few days away on Cape Cod enjoying our annual family vacation. Peanut spent every moment he could in the water!
It’s hard to imagine that it’s been four years of visiting this beach. Here are Peanut and I when he was only 3 months old.
We had a wonderful time visiting the beach every [...]

“Laughing through my tears…”

We’ve had a very busy week. Our best friends came into town. They’re Ladybugs Godparents so we had a lot to do in preperation of the big day.

There were trips for coffee, and BBQ supplies. Runs for yarn, book signings, wine and more yarn.

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

Today…

May have been the most beautiful day of the entire summer!
Peanut was in the pool, Ladybug was keeping me company by the table. The weather was stunning. Hope you had a great day too!

Make a Wish…

Please visit my friend Lynn’s blog. She and her team are participating in a triathalon to benifit the Make a Wish Foundation. I’ve donated my $5 in hopes of winning a sweet prize (Hand spun yarn, hand dyed yarn, etc) and donated a custom skein of yarn to the prize pool as well. Won’t you [...]
