I'm really late with this post. And when I finally got things together, he kept rolling out of the shoot. The life of a babe on the move! But, here we go anyways... Five months... Weighs 15 lbs. Has cheeks for days. And, a dreamy smile that makes me weak at the knees. Eats 6...

Lia: taking a warm bath in mama's tub brings a tiny bit of magic to a morning run by a stomach virus. Nicolas: this jumperoo brings all kinds of magic to his day.   I'm doing this series - a portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015. Follow along, link up &...

Watching... The Good Wife. M and I have been catching up on episodes on the sofa every night after the kids are tucked in bed. I have mixed emotions about this season but I'm still pretty excited for new episodes this Fall. Spending lots of time... in the pediatrician's office. Sick visits,...

I spent yesterday thinking it was Friday and tried to make plans to see a baseball game tonight completely forgetting about book club. It's been one of those 'can't get my head together' weeks. But, today is Friday and things are getting done and there's a weekend of potential just waiting...

I used to make these summer lists every year. I think I stopped a few years ago but having a wall-sized chalkboard and a five year old pretty much means these lists are back! Lia added a few ideas for the first time. I think 'go to the zoo' and 'splash in the pool' are hers! Mostly, it's easy...

We got ourselves a great guy! He's always there to listen, lend a hand with the dishes, get up with a babe when it's not his night, encourage me to act on my dreams, plays barbies and trains with Lia and is always up to take the kids on a walk when they just need to get out of the house. He...

Summer is here! It's getting really hot out and most days the idea of spending a few hours outside seems unbearable. I try to keep the kids happy and cool with air conditioning and Popsicles for the big one but they get a little stir-crazy when it's summer and they are stuck inside. So, I looked...

It's Friday and I think that calls for a few extra smiles! We've been cooped up inside the house every single day this week. It's just been too hot to take the kids to the park or even the backyard. And as charming as our town is, there's not really a good choice for a public outdoor...

Oh, Animal Kingdom. You were HOT. And it made us extra tired and cranky. And maybe Nicolas managed to pee on M. And maybe, we ended up having to buy a $30 "souvenir tee". So, maybe just maybe, this wasn't our best day. But, it was still great! The kids met Mickey...
