sadder than a dead puppy kind of sad
I am now convinced that there is next to nothing more heartbreaking than your first child’s first respiratory infection.
We have had six months of no ear infections, coughs, or runny noses. I managed to catch the flu when Kylie was five days old (probably from the hospital). My little sister, who resides down the hall, suffered from so many bouts of tonsillitis and strep throat before...
Beautiful, beautiful weekend. Minus the car...
So much for cleaning house.
Saturday morning, Jason and I planned a day of productivity. We had this ambitious, yet totally accomplishable list of tasks to be completed. We ran a few errands, but were soon intoxicated by the sunshine. We threw the list out of the truck window, and went back to the house to collect Ashley and Madison for a beach excursion. Kylie’s and...
The past few days have been a complete blur.
No sleep. Thanks Kylie.
We had a studio invasion. Over the course of two days, fifty (yes 50) kids took over the studio to paint their own versions of Starry Night. We were so glad to have them, even if somewhere along the line paint brushes were ditched and little fingers scooped paint to canvas instead.

Today is just one of those awful days. I find myself choosing to lay down rather than eat, even though I’m starving. My head...
Canvas Kids

They came from a school system that cut the art program, so most of them had never had an art lesson. They had so much fun and left planning to come back for their birthday parties! I hope they do. All kids should be able to paint/be creative on a regular basis. So sad that...
marriage revisited
This weekend we celebrated the marriage of James and Melissa. It was the first wedding Jason and I attended since our own, and it really made me realize how far this past year has taken us. As we were scurrying around Saturday morning in search of appropriate attire (because, of course, all of my clothing is either in storage or so unorganized I cannot find anything) Jason and I somehow got in...
