Life is a madhouse these days. This picture is from Sam’s baptism (which I plan to blog about soon), I had a breakdown the night before when we got a call from Kroger saying the food was ready for pick up – we were 30 minutes away from home and needed 100 pieces of chicken … More Currently
On the top of my mind these days is daycare/pre-school. There are a lot of factors to consider and I want to make sure I am preparing Lucas for kindergarten the best I can. With these thoughts swirling in my head in the middle of the night Saturday, I thought of a fun craft for … More Currently
There was a rare warm day not too long ago and we got our family photos taken at a nearby park and I LOVE them! Danny takes such great pictures of other people, it’s nice that we have some good photos of our own. Other things I’m currently up to…. Excited to get organized for the … More Currently
Currently I would argue that in addition to love you also need high volumes of caffeine, sleep and a vacation (a staycation would do). I’m drowning in activity these days and failing at my main new year’s resolution…. it was a rainy day for last week’s flower party and I was more exhausted than chipper … More Currently
Life’s a little slow right now but I don’t mind. I’m embracing the cycles of life right now (and a perpetually messy house). Lucas is a love but a 7am to 9:30pm job, which limits our ability to do other things. He’s too funny and cute for me to care. In the moments he’s with … More Currently
10 year old me never would have imagined Prince Harry would marry a mixed American! What I could have accomplished with that kind of hope… alas. 30 year old me is a wee bit cynical about the whole thing (proud of Meghan but protective of the Royal family); nevertheless, I’m still planning a wedding watch … More Currently
A weird thing happened this weekend, I felt like myself. It was like a light went on that I hadn’t even realized was off and it felt great. Life has been stressful and I’ve felt blue but I wouldn’t have really said I was depressed depressed. I suffered serious teenage angst and learned to counter … More Currently
I still have a hard time accepting that this is the world we’re living in. How can the GOP justify cutting our arts programs? Look at this face – kids deserve a free station to laugh, learn and love Elmo and the rest of the PBS classics. Laughing/Crying over this Elmo video. I share his employability concerns… … More Currently
Buying pink carnations. Kat bought me some last month and they looked perfect in my vase from Target so I’ve decided that it will be a permanent fixture in the kitchen. It’s a daily reminder to stop and enjoy the moment. The other flowers are from my sweet cousin who was recently over for dinner. … More Currently
Resisting the normalization of indecent behavior, the rejection of fact, and degradation of our democratic values. Renovating our kitchen! If the world is ending I want my kitchen. It’ll be a long process but we’ve started. And like all kitchen renos in this decade it will include a farmhouse sink! Watching all the MARVEL movies … More Currently
