Free Jewelry!

Okay, first, I need to share a link with you. Megan takes amazing pictures, and I can’t wait for our family pictures in the fall (and if they’re free, even better!)Now on to jewelry news. A lot of you know that our VERY generous company was giving away a TON […]

My Girls

These two are about as different as different can be. Essie is loud, and Ivy reminds us of that every time we put them to bed in their room. Essie could possibly be on her high school’s football team, and Ivy loves nothing more than to twirl in her dresses. […]

Adventures in Potty Training

I had decided, several weeks ago, that our soon-to-be three-year-old would be thrust into potty training boot camp as soon as we moved and we no longer had wall-to-wall carpet. She had acted like she was going to potty train herself several months ago, and she did well for a […]

Catching Up?

I know….I have been a total slacker on the blog-front lately. Between moving, sample sales, a trip to Independence, potty training and general summer activities, I haven’t had the time or energy to update this darn thing! I’ve been eager to, though, and told myself that I WOULD post tonight. […]

Ivyism

I sprayed some ant spray in our bathroom a few minutes ago.Ivy walks by the bathroom and runs over to me, saying “bafroom is smelly, follow me.”We both walk back to the bathroom, and she says “taste it.””Taste it?”She sniffs the air. “Do dat.”I sniff the air. “It IS smelly.”

Moving Day? No…Week.

In my last post (which seems like forever ago), I mentioned the “impending move”. Well, as you may have guessed, the reason it has been forever since I’ve written is that the move is HAPPENING. I can’t say it’s happened, because between my dad and my husband last weekend, and […]

Peace….and quiet?

It’s almost 11:00am, the middle of the week, and I just got out of bed an hour ago. How is this possible, you ask? Well, it’s possible because it’s just me and the baby for the rest of the week! She woke up, like, four hours ago, but she enetertained […]

bootafull neck-ace

Okay, I have to tell you what Ivy said last night. I wish I could recite it word-for-word, but the girl hasn’t fully grasped the English language yet, so it’s hard to remember. There were a lot of “uh….”s as she was trying to find her words, but the gist […]

B. Belle

Okay, yes. This is post number 4 for May 11, 2010. Perhaps all I’ve done today is laundry, nap, and post blogs. Might as well do it while you’ve got the inspiration and motivation, right?Well, E. Belle (aka Stinker Belle, B. Belle, E. Monster) is 10 months old in, like, […]

Gems

So, I know I’ve already posted twice today, but Henry and Ivy have been saying the funniest things lately, and I wanted to write them down before I forgot everything.We were driving the other day, and Henry kept sucking in his breath like he was surprised or shocked.Me: Henry, what’s […]
