Dear Mother Nature: I believe you’re confused. Just five days ago you dumped eight inches of snow in our backyard. We bundled up and pulled on our boots and made the most of the mid-week snowstorm. But, really, we’re ready to bid farewell to winter. You were kind enough yesterday to grant our wish and [...]
I give you the second half of our February in photos. {Nana’s glasses and Poppy’s guitars} {dinner party: hearty lasagna and truffle brownies} {#barefootbookclub: tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons} {fun with stickers}
Our boy. Behaving like a typical toddler: feeding his puppy from the table, hiding in the corner during storytime, loving the view from the top of the refrigerator, and watching Daddy shovel the snow. Our girl. Teething pup who loves the snow and watching TV with momma. And our food. Lots of sweets. Surprise, surprise. [...]
{Every morning Lucy waits very patiently for Sam to Cheerios and bits of bananas.} {Return of the green drink.} {Ta-da! His current favorite activity.} {He now insists on drinking from the big cup.} {Who needs an apple when you have a spoon? Also, I may need to start buying two jars.} {Backing up photos. Long [...]
{It didn’t take long for Sam to figure out how to scale the gate that keeps Lucy in the kitchen.} {Apparently it requires both hands to stir the soup.} {Fun days with this kid. I wouldn’t trade my “job” for anything.} {Fun … and exhausting. Sometimes when the toddler naps, the momma does, too.} {It’s [...]

Remember when I used to post our week in photos? Well, I fell off that wagon about two months ago. Which means it’s time to play catch up. Here are some favorites from our October and November. We spent a Saturday afternoon at an Italian festival in Pittsburgh. We enjoyed flatbread pizzas, pierogies, and cannolis. [...]
This little blog may seem quiet, but our days have been busier than ever. Here’s to soaking up every last ray of summer sun!
The boy is keeping momma very busy these days. He tries to climb onto everything. He’s quite the acrobat. He often eats more than I do for lunch. He’s busy. And he makes me laugh all the time. When did he become such a little man? And how is it possible that I’m already planning [...]
We’ve had visitors for the past ten days. My parents and sister, followed by my aunt and cousin, then Nick’s sister, aunt, uncle, and grandmother. Whew. That’s a lot of sheets and towels and dinner plates and wine glasses. As much fun as it was to entertain our families, it sure is nice to have [...]
