on friday, isaac t. lidbom turned seven. SEVEN. i can’t even believe it. seems like just yesterday that we were bringing home that screaming little bundle of feisty joy and starting our lives as parents. he has, for sure, kept us on our toes. he’s packed to the rafters with endless energy. and is completely […]
birthday
kitchen table. birthday. and general kid cuteness.
things have been kind of low-key around here. trying to wrap up loose ends and get ready for the craziness to arrive. i have been hating our kitchen table situation for a long long time. the cushioned chairs are all completely stained and gross, because i gave up on cleaning them a long time ago. […]

some pictures… anna and the world’s best dog: i gave my kids each a roll of washi tape. here’s what anna did: and what ike did: wednesday, the 8th, was anna’s actual birthday, so we went out for a delicious breakfast. it’s her favorite meal. bacon, sausage, eggs over easy, toast, pancakes. she’s a little […]
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 […]
curious george rainbow cake.
anna’s birthday is around the corner. wednesday to be exact. but, her grandparents will be out of town. and the middle of the week is tough. so, we had a little party time for her on sunday night. last night. she’s been waffling back and forth between a curious george cake, another yo gabba gabba […]

#ikes6thbdaysleepover
so, rather than have a big expensive blowout party for ike, we decided to let him invite three of his best pals over for a sleepover. after a lot of careful thought (and me nixing girls, mixing school and church friends, and way older kids), he came up with alden, william and josiah. which works […]
six.
yesterday was this guy’s birthday: i made him pose for various pictures in front of the chalkboard. i woke up early (well not really. i skipped the gym and actually woke up later. but i digress.) and made him bacon and pancakes. his favorite. and i made him eat in his underwear because i didn’t […]
