Last night would be described as “long” in a mom’s vocabulary. Long means there was little sleep and much consoling of your baby. And that there was. Like any sickness, and I don’t know why this happens, the slight runny nose my boy had all day yesterday settled into a deep congestion and very stuffed… Continue reading 100,000
I know, I know, I know. Where in the world have I been, right? Well, I’ve been at my home. Desperately trying to keep up with everything and wondering why I thought life would be so quiet and simple as a stay-at-home mom. And ya know, there are slews of Mommy Blogs out there and… Continue reading just an update.
There are moments I want to remember always. Like yesterday. Yesterday when we piled on the layers (because even in late April the air is still cold) and we went and romped through the woods, following the river for an hour and a half. The sun shone through the trees and was everything gold and… Continue reading about you, my son
It was raining only moments ago. And suddenly it stopped and now there are bits of blue in the sky. This, my friends, makes me think that Spring really is here. Yesterday The Husband and I ran a mile block here in town together. I can’t ever decide if such things are good for maintaining… Continue reading Saturday Morning Chat
There are birds singing and a sun shining. The forecast calls for a warmer day and my house is part greenhouse so it will soak up all this sunshining-ness and warmth. My morning cup of coffee is finished and the baby, who decided that 4:50am was the perfect time for his mama to wake for… Continue reading morning!
It’s dark and rainy and another chance to wear warm sweaters, drink hot tea, light a candle, and make the home cozy. Warm Spring days will be here eventually. Might as well make the most of what we’ve been given today and get that pot of soup simmering (what else comforts like soup on damp… Continue reading Sunshine
This blurry candid I snapped the other day seems to capture what this winter has been. Colorless. Tired. And so much fun. Here’s to a more colorful, energizing, but still as fun spring! P.S. I think these would be the perfect way to add some color to our world. Don’t you think?
My husband who loves, serves, and guides me. My baby who cuddles, smiles, and talks to me 90% of his awake moments. Leftover Banana Whole Wheat pancake batter to make for lunch. Temperatures warming enough by mid-day to warrant short walks. A handed down baby carrier that is oh-so comfortable. Sisters who get it and… Continue reading thankful
My morning cup of coffee has increased in size by a few cups recently. And there’s a routine to go with the giant mug that holds 5 cups: The Husband is kissed goodbye, I tidy the kitchen from us eating breakfast, fix my giant mug, and then our Sunshine stirs and beckons me from upstairs.… Continue reading blessed sleep
It’s still snowing. It has been for the past sixteen hours or so and it’s supposed to continue through to this evening. The Husband was out snow blowing our driveway at 5am but you wouldn’t know it if you tried pulling in right now. Last evening I tried to be positive as I commented on… Continue reading the morning so far
