It’s been a long week. Tuesday morning Pierce kicked my coffee (unfinished from the day before… I hadn’t even gotten that far yet) and the coffee spilled all over the desk. A few drops hit the laptop keyboard, but I wiped them off quickly and didn’t think too much of it. And then. Twenty minutes […]
It’s beginning to look a little like Christmas…
I’ll be the first to admit I’m horrible at decorating. It’s just not my thing. I’m not sure if I just don’t care enough or if I just don’t have the space (and hands-free children) to be able to do very much, but I’ve never pursued it very hard. When we bought this house, though, […]
Hello, frailty.
For a long time, I’d been immune to poison ivy. I could pull it with my bare hands without issue – and I did. Then last summer, I got it into my head to pull all of the poison ivy around our lilacs. I pulled a lot of poison ivy that day. Immunity over. Apparently, […]
Shopping fail.
I tried a new idea for shopping trip chaos organization. It was the worst trip we’ve had in a long, long time. Does that mean it was a major fail or do we try this again next time and hope it was just adjusting to a new routine?! Some lady, under her breath, muttered at […]
“What color slipcover do you think would be best?” “I don’t care.” I bet he does… “They have a lime green one.” “Okay. I care. NOT lime green.” See, I knew he cared. I made a Pomegranate Jell-O recipe the other day. We all ended up picking out the pomegranate arils and eating the Jell-O. […]
I made my second batch of soap today. Blaine came home to the smell of Cherry Almond Oatmeal soap cooling. (And a pear pie in the oven, but the Cherry Almond was definitely overpowering it.) He thought he’d come home to Butter Letter. He was disappointed. What kind of spoiled is he that I’ve made […]
Pierce woke up very much on the wrong side of the crib this morning. (Figure of speech, of course. Literally, he’d have been out the window and on the driveway if he’d gotten out that way. And while I may have been tempted… no.) He cried, refused breakfast, and clung to me and sobbed for […]
An effort – in futility.
Day one of Sit-Ups for a Flatter Baby Belly included Pierce pulling up my shirt in an attempt to nurse, followed by blowing raspberries on my stomach. Charlotte, Pierce, and Ruby all thought Momma laying on the floor meant one big squishy pillow made just for them. Push ups involved Charlotte driving a matchbox car […]
