This feels strange...I'm blogging! I don't know what's gotten into me, but I woke up yesterday with an itch to write a Five on Friday post. So here goes nothing... ONE. If it's not raining, you can find my crew at the neighborhood park most afternoons. I'm not gonna lie, it's not the most exciting park. However, it has slides and swings and fresh air...and it's practically in our backyard. So we go, and we love it. Speaking of swings...look who ...
Nash: 6 Months
Height: TBD Weight: TBD - I'm guessing 20/21lbs Teeth: 2 Nash, I almost couldn't bring myself to write this post. I didn't want to have your 6 month pictures taken over the weekend either, but I ended up doing both of these things for one reason: over the last month, you and your sister have been my happy. When I didn't think it was physically possible to keep going, you smiled at me with your sweet eyes and willed me to move forward. And when life seemed too heavy to ...
Nash: 5 Months!
Height: TBD Weight: 19 lbs Nash, I usually take notes on my phone throughout the month so that I can refer back to them when I'm writing these posts. Well this month my note just said: "sleep" followed by about 8 thumbs down emojis. So yeah...you're lucky you're so darn cute ;) I don't know where we went wrong in the sleep department, but now we're seeing your adorable face around 10:30, 1, 3, 5, etc. It's brutal...just brutal. After taking you to the doctor ...
Arden Says
You know that saying "kids say the darndest things?" Well I totally get it now. Arden turned 2.5 last week, but sometimes I feel like she's 12.5...especially when she says things like, "shall we do a puzzle now, mommy?" She's apparently British now too, so there's that ;) Here are some of my favorite Arden quotes as of late... "Mommy, go get Daddy's Valentine out of the car. He needs it." There went that surprise! "Ta-Da!!!!" (about ...
Life as Art: Arden Loves Donuts :)
Those who know Arden well, know that she has a fierce love for powdered donuts. A love so defining that when my friend Amber asked that Arden be a part of her Life as Art photography project, I immediately knew the scenario and the environment. Powdered donuts in the kitchen...of course :) The concept behind Amber's project is simple but unique...and one that spoke to my memory-capturing heart. The idea is to photograph life as it happens. To capture those little things ...
Nash: 4 Months!
Height: 25" Weight: 17+ lbs Nash, I think I'll just jump right into it: you might be the sweetest baby there ever was. I mean really. It's that adorably contagious smile of yours. You draw people in with it...at the grocery store, the gym, the doctor's office--pretty much anywhere there are people. And then they see your chunky rolls and they're hooked. I feel their pain ;) It's been a big month for you...full of new skills, fun times, and of course: ...
