isaac is always super quick to remind me that he only has one quilt. he is always trying to smuggle my quilts into his room. so, i decided to make him one before the baby hit the scene. i went with superhero wonky stars. (disclaimer: i uploaded the photos from my phone to flickr, where […]
isaac
school pics, thrifting, and more leaves…
i was pleasantly surprised with isaac’s school picture. more specifically, his smile. we’ve had some crazy ones in the past, and this one seemed pretty normal. i DO wish someone had helped him straighten his bow tie before the picture was taken, though. i’ve been working fast and furious to try to get a quilt […]
our sarahpowers and leafy weekend.
on saturday, i loaded up ike and anna for a day trip to raleigh to visit sarahpowers and max. she had some important baby items for me, and we hadn’t been out there since max was born, almost 2 years ago. i used to live in the raleigh area (cary, raleigh, north raleigh, morrisville, etc). […]
halloween festivities.
thursday was halloween. in case you missed it. isaac had a party at school to celebrate. well, not a party. a “special snack”. because they are allowed only two official parties in the year. so, i think they save them for the “winter break” and end of year. anyhooo… we (some moms) rolled in with […]
some october pics.
here’s the random, miscellaneous, mundane stuff that’s been going on around here for the last three weeks or so… we have been letting anna sleep on the bottom of isaac’s bunk bed a little more and a little more as we prepare for her room to be temporarily surrendered to the baby. eventually, she and […]

patterson farms. 2013 version.
on saturday, we headed out to our favorite “pumpkin patch”, located in mount ulla, north carolina, for a day of family fun and relaxation. :). warning. there’s a lot of pictures. obligatory indian corn and pumpkin diorama photo: other obligatory pumpkin growth chart photo: first things first. always the petting/feeding zoo. then, some face painting. […]
this is just how i blog now.
i know when i’ve been defeated. i can admit it. posting once every week or so, and just throwing up a bunch of captioned pics seems to be the way things are going now. and i’m ok with it. this blog post will be no different. it goes back about two and a half weeks […]
catching up. again. sigh.
once again, i find myself not doing well with this whole keeping up with my blog. so, here’s another conglomeration of instagram pictures and some that didn’t make the instagram cut. detailing our life in the last few weeks. this cute girl LOVES to draw. i love it. i was the same way. i remember […]
labor day mountain weekend
derek’s parents invited us up to blue ridge village for a labor day weekend in the mountains. it was good timing, because isaac’s first week of school was a little rough. for him and me. and, we didn’t accomplish as many items from our summer to do list as i had hoped, and this little […]
