Well, well, well. Here we are again! I will be celebrating my 6th Mother’s Day, how about you? The husband has learned — just in these six short years of blissful parenthood — that the greatest gift he can give me for Mother’s Day is time away from my child. But if that fails, because life is…
I can’t believe it’s been 3 months since my cousins from Finland came to visit! When I take an unplanned blogging hiatus, I really go for it, eh. But yes! They came and went and even got married since we saw them last! And I had purple hair for like a minute. My mom came…
Several months back, Groupon had a phenomenal deal on a yearly membership to the Natural History Museum. You know it had to be good, because I bought the family pass — knowing full well that my child doesn’t like museums! But that’s just who I am. Wasting money as I hope for the best. This…
If you missed my last post about the Spring 10×10 Challenge, you can read my whole rant on the love/hate relationship I have with my wardrobe, and see what the challenge is all about right here. Otherwise, the basic idea is that you take 10 items of clothing and make 10 outfits over 10 days. The concept is…
We survived another holiday! That’s not to say that Stevie wasn’t still in FULL ON Easter-mode when he woke up this morning. At 6:30 he had sweets on the brain, and certainly hadn’t forgotten the lollipop we promised him “later”. His favorite game as of late is to watch me put Hot Wheels into Easter eggs…
When Paul and I sat down to plan our family vacation, I was prepped and ready to make my case for Hawaii. Hawaii all the way baby! Dream vacation coming up! Paul, trust me! It will be perfect. I have the resort picked, the kid can go to the day camp, we can drink and…
I have felt really challenged by my clothes lately. Almost 2 years ago, I made the decision to veto any and all fast-fashion purchases (which is essentially cheap clothes made quickly to satisfy a place in the market for the most up-to-date, current trends). But not only that, I wanted to cut back on purchases overall,…
Stevie’s renditions of Wheels on the Bus, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and Fancy by Iggy Azalea are really something else. Yes, body. 9pm does seem like a great time for a 45 minute nap — until you actually have to go to bed. I was admiring how long my nails had gotten and within 10 minutes…
Oh hey, hello, it’s been awhile! What’s up you guys? As you probably guessed by my lack of posting, we have been busy, busy, and one more busy. I just launched my updated photography site and I’m working on making changes to this site some day soon as well. Plus… life. This crazy life! It seems as…
Well. It’s the morning of January 3rd — and I’m just barely on the brink of starting to come to terms with the fact that the holidays are over. Fergus pulled off the Christmas tree skirt while we were out to lunch yesterday, so he made the first hard step to put away the decorations and lights…
