a portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013.

sometime last year we discovered this tucked away daffodil field. a local farm runs it and they have it open for a short time of the year until all the daffodils have been picked. it's fun to let the kids run around and i never say to fresh flowers.
we went with some of L's preschool friends last...
i always feel weird if i don't pop in between a bunch of pre-written scheduled posts. i guess i feel my voice is detached on those days? and while i needed to do scheduled posts this week to catch up, i still wanted to pop in.
can you believe it's almost the end of February? this year has been...
we bought tickets to the Yo Gabba Gabba Live show back in december and went this past weekend. i have no idea how we kept the secret from lia so long. which is probably why we threw out so many hints on our way to the show that she kind of guessed who we'd be seeing.
i know some people don't get...
valentine's day was simple this year. my sweet, sweet hubby gave me exactly what i wanted - flowers that weren't roses and chocolate. and i gave him beer and homemade brownies. l-bug got some candy, a stuffed monkey and some wooden cars.

aren't monday holidays the best? i love getting that sinking "weekend is ending" feeling on sunday afternoon only to realize that we get an extra day. makes it all that much sweeter.

ps. she does still wear glasses. but if i am being honest, often times they are buried in the trenches of my bag and we forget about them. we're trying...
i took these pictures in our front yard this afternoon while the sun was shining for a last-minute valentine's photo shoot with absolutely no thought put into it except "hey we're running out the door while it's sunny and you've got actual clothes on - let me grab the camera!". i basically...

it's sunday night and i am drowning my feelings in a chocolate bar and dr pepper. i'm trying to find some more mama patience and motivation to make it through the new week.
we tackled some painting projects this weekend. and potty training. while the first inspired me to keep making our home...

i am sitting here. thinking about the hundreds of things i need to do and the hundreds of things i want to do. i crave a balance between this list. a balance that i have never found. i like being a real mom. the kind that doesn't mind having bad moments here and...
