Good Baby Question

Someone the other day asked me if FH was a good baby. Is there such a thing as a bad baby? He cries when he is tired, when he has belly pains, when he is hungry, when he wants to be held. This seems reasonable to me. No, he does not sleep particularly well at [...]

Six Days and Counting

Six days until I go back to work, and I am jamming all kinds of appointments into those last few days. meeting with the pastor about FH’s baptism haircut (which is desperately needed) chiropractor FH’s three month checkup eye appointment We are also having a four-year-old birthday party for LM on Sunday, and somewhere in [...]

Sun Room Redo

After several weeks of having various samples of yellow painted on the sun room wall, we (actually W) painted the room. The new Behr paint with primer in it is awesome. This is the first wall that you see when you come into the house via the side entrance (the one everyone uses). Kinda blah [...]

This Box

I had forgotten but quickly remembered why this box has been sitting in the office for the last two years. It is full of photographs–random photographs. You know, those one or two photos that someone sends you after an event or school pictures of family members. Honestly, some of the pics could be tossed, like [...]

Another Bib and Burp Set

For my friend who recently had a baby.

Homemade Lasagna

Yesterday LM and I made lasagna–homemade noodles and all. The plan was to save half of it for a freezer meal, but it is almost already gone. So much for that.

Entrances

Entrances to homes that is…should be clean and clutter free, right? There are four major entrances to our home. Strange, I hadn’t really thought about it until I started this project. Entrance #1Technically, this is the side entrance, but it is the one everyone uses. All those glass panes were what started this all. I [...]

10 Days and Counting

10 Days until I go back to work…I’m not anxious about it or anything, am I?! I was reading this blog Working Moms Against Guilt and thinking about working for a paycheck and being a mother. Honestly, for me the emotion is not guilt. Guilt implies that I think I am doing something wrong by [...]

Perry Wildlife Zoo

We were going to take the kids to the National Zoo today but the combination of potential rains and tiredness changed our minds. Instead we took them to the Perry Wildlife Zoo in Perry, WVa. They say an interesting blog has good photographs…. I would love to show photographs of the kids squealing with delight, [...]
