seems impossible, but i double checked the dates, and it turns out, the annababy turned twelve this month. her actual birthday fell on mother’s day, and i spent a good amount of time harassing her about it and reminding her that someday when she has kids, she will get combined birthday/mothers day gifts, so the […]

it’s strawberry season again!! thanks to my older two insisting on obtaining a public school education, i’m down to only one helper (child laborer), but i would rather be short handed than go on a weekend, along with the rest of the general public.the place we go is literally four minutes from my house. i […]
april. 2022.
i’ve spent a lot of time trying to organize these photos into some sort of grouping that makes sense, but also accounts for the dimensions, orientation, and quality of the photos. but, april was such a strange month, fully of visits and cakes and such, so the random leftovers of april are just that, very […]
marchy march. 2022.

sprinkle themed christmas activities
now that we live in a stupid giant stationary house, there’s a lot of extensive sugar themed projects to fill up our christmas season. (and that doesn’t even count hazel’s birthday, which falls right in the middle of all of it). firstly, there was the annual decorating of the gingerbread houses. this year, i opted […]
the crazel is eight.
ok. so i’m not sure how this happened. but suddenly, the crazelnut is eight. time is flying by, faster and faster. we started the day off with a quick obligatory birthday photoshoot, which is always an adventure. this kid is always trying to be hilarious, usually successfully. she’s a big smartypants and loves to read, […]
