In honor of Pierce’s 3 month and one week birthday, some photos. He’s 15 pounds, growing some impressive eyelashes (and eyebrows) happy (part of the time) when he’s held or swinging and far larger than any of my other babies at three months old. It’s crazy. He likes to sleep in my bed, and rarely […]
Wanted: One mommy.
Ruby informed me this morning “If I hugged you really tight on your neck and you couldn’t breathe you would die.” “Yes, I suppose that could happen. But it would have to be a really long hug,” I replied. “Then I’d have to buy a new mommy.” So glad to know I’m easily replaced.
Ah, the lovely gravelly feeling of staying up half the night to aid in hanging sheetrock on the ceiling… and the joy of almost having a ceiling in the laundry room! Achy. Totally worth it. Thanks, B.
It cannot be as bad as what she finds out of doors. I’m certain of it.
Brady used to keep the area under the kitchen table clean. Then I bought lamb and rice food for her and she got picky. When the 5 lb. dog goes through one 40 lb. bag of dog food a year, I could justify the good stuff. No longer. Next time, it’s Ol’ Roy. Maybe then […]
Such fun.
Today’s white load contains five pairs of tights, pinned up to dry on the clothesline. I’m not sure what amazes me more. The five pairs of tights or the 54 degree weather in January that allows for clothesline use. I love them both.
Christmas vacation, unscripted.
We’re back to school today. After planning one week off and taking two, it was time. The break was wonderful. Somehow I thought my house would be cleaner than this, having so much free time, but it’s not. I thought I’d have my bedroom curtains made, but I don’t. But the break was wonderful. Did […]
Dear Pierce, I’m flattered, really. So glad you love me so much. But if you wanted to go to someone else, just for a little while, that would be ok with me. My back hurts. I really don’t know how you know so instantly when someone else has you. I’m sure that your sense of […]
Life has been chaotic lately. We’re off from school until Tuesday, and still, life is about as stressful as it comes. Craziness. Blaine leaves for his yearly work trip to California this week. Getting back into school, co-op, and being alone – and so very not alone – isn’t something I’m looking forward to. Blaine […]
Today’s numbers:
Ruby weighed 30 lbs. Charlotte weighed 21 lbs. Pierce weighed 14 lbs. 12 oz. My back disagrees. Charlie and Pierce weigh at least 20 lbs. more. Each.
Ewww.
We’ve talked about my girls’ penchant for getting sick in the car before. Here. And here. And here. It is, unfortunately, one well-discussed topic. Thank you, Charlie, for bringing back what was becoming a distant memory. Ruby’s getting better at asking for a window to be opened, Eden’s good, and we haven’t had a mess […]
