made these awhile back to hang in the anna baby’s room. i had been on the search for some letters for her name, but couldn’t decide what i wanted to do. i saw a tutorial for a whole alphabet of these letters that i had filed away for a rainy day. then it hit me… […]

anna baby’s quilt
yesterday was my birthday. isaac finally went to school in the morning (after a week off from illness). and anna slept for 2.5 straight hours yesterday morning. glorious. anyhow, it freed me up to make some really great progress on her quilt. enough that i was compelled to stay up late last night and finish […]
0.5 years! (and one day)
yesterday marked 6 calendar months of life for the sweet anna baby. i really really meant to post on time for this milestone, but then isaac stole her 1/2 year birthday thunder by projectile vomiting all day. (note: we took him to the doc’s and it seemed to just be a common bug and he’s […]
halloween, part two. (the nerd).
as once promised, here are some additional halloween pictures. i did a terrible job of capturing the festivities via digital camera, but thankfully jude was on the scene with her fancy pants camera. she captured some shots of the oldest lid kid, dressed up in his nerd costume which i had NONE of. and a […]

pumpkins, cows, and nerds.
well, halloween was yesterday. here’s how that went down… first we painted and carved some pumpkins. i had not meant to put this off until the last minute. i bought paint last week with every intention of painting with the boy during one of anna’s 30 minute naps. ambitious, i know. well, that never happened […]
cupcakie onesie
made this for the annababy this morning while isaac was at school and she slumbered away…
leafy onesie
I’ve had this idea (or one like it) brewing in my head for awhile, but it wasn’t until the stars aligned and Anna took a 1.5 hour nap and Isaac was at school that I could put it together for realz… I present to you, the fall leaves onesie:
patterson farms…
last weekend, we loaded up the lid kids and headed down to the mooresville/statesville area of north carolina to patterson farms for some pumpkin patchy fun. we went two years ago, with a wee little isaac toddler, and it was a lot of fun, so we were excited to head back with both kids in […]
