lid kid everyday life
official first grader
tuesday was isaac’s last day of kindergarten. (and my last day of having a semi-mess-free house). he eagerly wore the same shirt as the first day of school. (shorts and sneakers are too small. sigh.) and we snapped some cute pictures before i sent him off. cute picture one. cute picture two. with curious onlooker. […]
may then june.
yet another installment of my series i like to call “a bunch of random pictures of the last week or so.” hope you enjoy. for memorial day, we headed to the p-salls for burgers and hanging out. the kids were nerds at the kid table. the kiddos jumped on the trampoline all evening long. until […]
slow saturday random post
a slow saturday morning = blog update opportunities… not much going on around here. nice weather rolling in, so lots of outside time. example. we hit up the cobblestone farmers market. which is decidedly less cobblestone-y this year and a little more concrete-y, since they moved it away from krankie’s. oh well. we got some […]
$65 picnic lunch
a few weeks ago, ike’s school had a giant fundraiser in the form of a spring carnival. there was also an auction to accompany the spring carnival and at that auction, we “won” a picnic lunch with isaac’s teacher, for a whopping $65. flash forward to today. and the picnic lunch was taking place. isaac […]

a kindergarten mother’s day…
this morning was “muffins with moms” in isaac’s kindergarten class to celebrate mother’s day. he was so so so excited. and super cute while he tried to be patient. while we waited for muffins, we got to look at our card. i’m the best sower. 🙂 and that’s him and anna hugging me. and me […]
annababy’s 3rd birthday party.
anna’s birthday falls on a stupid wednesday this year. so, we celebrated sunday. which might not have been the best plan because derek was at a meeting all afternoon and our house has been in a perpetual state of disaster since i started keeping extra people and then especially when i got pregnant. anyhow. i […]
princess party…
it was perfect timing that anna decided she liked princesses, because she was set to attend a princess party for the fifth birthday of our pal kaylin. we borrowed a dress from heather and her girls and instantly anna was transformed into a disney princess enthusiast. so, naturally, we gave in. and for anna’s birthday, […]
