hazel grace
on tuesday, december 10th, we welcomed this little bundle of apprehensive joy into the world: we are calling her hazel grace. and she was 21 inches long and 7 lbs 15 oz. and was born at 11:20 am. i’ll post more details later, about how the whole thing actually went down. but, for now, here’s […]
the week in (very few) pictures.
(i’m still pregnant. and bags are packed. and things are mostly clean. and so on. so, i am blogging.) we had thanksgiving at derek’s sister’s house. here’s the kidz table. it was very giggly. the cousins exchanged gifts (mostly because we got them a lego star wars advent calendar and we don’t have the family […]
39 weeks and 1 day.
i am in my 40th week of pregnancy. which is supposed to be the last. except anna proved that to be wrong. i don’t feel like there’s a baby who is ready to make her arrival. just fat. and tired. and ready. also. it’s thanksgiving. we are getting ready to head to derek’s sister’s house […]
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.

the superhero quilt
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 […]
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 […]
