on friday (4 days after we woke up to snow), it was 78 degrees. so, after lunch, we busted out the new baggie of happy meal toys, the colored rice and some scoops and containers, and headed to the deck….

krispy kreme valentines
valentines day. lame. except for the part where a bunch of stay at home mom friends gather at krispy kreme and let their kids feast on a healthy, wholesome breakfast of heart shaped donuts with pink sprinkles… (disclaimer: i did not get shots of all of the kids and moms. sorry.) grae: kess: anna: isaac: […]
consign.
it’s a well known fact that i don’t buy my kids new clothes. well, occasionally, i encounter something that i can’t pass up. but, mostly, my kids are clad in hand-me-downs, megathrift finds and consignment sale clothings. this friday, after i dropped ike off at school, i carted anna off to a local preschool and […]
tutu party
today was our friend addison’s 2 year birthday party. since she turned two on 2/2, her parents threw her a tutu party. i had to wake anna from her nap early to go. she wasn’t happy. strawberries: cupcake: all the kids trying to sit still for a pic: anna, at home, where i could finally […]

christmas. belated.
a long time ago, it was christmas. and i took some pictures. with my phone. and i kept thinking that once i sat down to sync up my phone, i would get the pics and a glorious blog post would follow. then, i didn’t sync my phone. and the pictures got shoved further and further […]
anna, parks, friends.
the weather has been pretty mild here in the carolinas this almost-winter… we’ve been out to the park twice in the last week. i didn’t get many pics of the kids at the first park. mostly because it’s got a ginormous two story play structure that my kids seem to have very little fear of, […]
charlie brown christmas
aside from multiple viewings of “a charlie brown christmas” (i think we’re already at 6 or 7 this year), we like to infuse our christmas decor with a generous amount of charlie brown themed items. my personal favorite is this ornament, that plugs into a light strand and lights up. it weighs about 7 pounds, […]
