the annababy is becoming quite a little artist. her potato people have transformed and she’s including so many little details. and big details – like bodies. 🙂 here’s some that i’ve managed to capture on digital media before she destroys or erases it… a portrait of foofa, plex, and toodee. in chalk. here are foofa, […]

little apples for baby three.
when we decided to go for baby number three, i knew that i wanted to make a quilt with little apples. for one, it’s mostly gender neutral. and i loved it. and a fat quarter bundle was on super good sale on etsy. so, here we are, anticipating baby number three in four months or […]
when we aren’t on vacation…
we’ve been on vacation for a good chunk of the summer so far. well. just the beach and batavia. but it seems like a lot. anyhow… here’s what’s been going on when we haven’t been traveling… we signed up for free weekday bowling with amf. we’ve only been once, with our pals, the pattisalls, but […]
adventures in babysitting.
so. things have been pretty crazy busy over here. i’ve started to keep a couple of extra kiddos of some great friends of ours. originally, the plan was to do it indefinitely, but then i became great with child, so my gig will end in november, so i can spend a few weeks preparing for […]
visiting leslie and co.
so. for the last leg of our trip, we went out to leslie’s new house in angola. it’s about an hour into the trip home, so it’s nice to have a little jump start when we get on the road. packing a day early and having to run to the car 5000 times for something […]

summer in batavia. part 1.
we just returned from our annual summer trip to batavia. just me and the kids this time. the trip up was pretty uneventful. except for isaac having to go to the bathroom every hour. we were glad to roll into batavia… it has been raining in batavia (not unlike the rest of the east coast) […]
sand, surf, sun.
i have no desire to narrate our trip to the beach. it was supposed to be rainy all week, but each day, i woke up and the weather forecast had magically changed overnight and the weather was great. we went to the beach everyday and the pool on most days. last year, it rained so […]
dan nicholas park. with friends.
i hopped on here, to detail our trip to the beach. when i scrolled back through the pictures, i realized i haven’t blogged about our little getaway to dan nicholas park awhile back. so, i’ll start there. and then hope that the naps hold out long enough for a beach blog post… first we rode […]
sweaty zoo trip
on sunday, around 11 am, we decided to pack it up (pack it in) and head to the north carolina zoo. it’s about an hour away and we have a family membership, so it would be a cheap and easy family adventure. here’s my gang rolling in… while anna knew that the zoo was where […]
