with a large chunk of august spent in iceland, and with the time before that spent feverishly preparing for iceland, and the time after it spent feverishly recovering from iceland while simultaneously getting the kiddos ready for school the following week, this recap for “the rest of august” is going to be short and sweet […]

juney things.
june was a blur. the end of school for all three kids. anna at summer camp. some cakes. lots of work shifts. some sewing. play dates. still the gym. and getting ready to be gone for most of july. here’s what happened, according to the photos i took. (some other stuff probably happened, but i […]
the annababy is an anna-teen.
well. i have two teenagers now. it feels impossible. it seems like it was just a few years ago that my days were filled with babies and toddlers, bottles and tiny chopped up food, diapers and pacifiers, stackable blocks and plastic light up toys. but alas. here we are. anna is thirteen. i’ve already posted […]
a ridiculously long post about april ’23.
well. you would think a post about april would be super short, considering we spent the first week on spring break, and all of that was detailed in previous posts. but, alas, sometimes when there’s not much excitement going on, these miscellaneous monthly posts get a lot more attention. or so it is in this […]
february and all of it’s non essential happenings.
february came and went without too much fanfare requiring a separate post. i had a cake that almost ended me. and an epic hike with a good girl. and i made a teddy bear. and, as you’ll see in this post, there really wasn’t much else going on in february at all. anna hasn’t really […]

boring old august.
aside from our 10 day trip to western new york, august was pretty uneventful. leading up to the trip, we were getting ready for it. and when we got back, we moved into back to school mode. nothing very exciting, so proceed at your own risk (of boredom). firstly, in baking related news, anna has […]
july things.
as i look at the photos from july, i am realizing it was pretty uneventful, outside of our trip to the beach. so, this will be quick. i promise. firstly. there was the fourth of july. my pal stephanie has neighbors who hail from the great city of buffalo (or, well, like me, near buffalo). […]
