the weather has been amazing this week, so we have taken every opportunity to go to the park. we’ve been three times, i think. and we’re scheduled for trip number four tomorrow with some friends… it’s been so nice to get out of the stupid house of germs and run around and get some sun.

rainbow cake
somehow, over the past couple of weeks, i have amassed a great deal of leftover frosting. in an unrelated story, i had promised my friend bridgette that i would show her how i get smooth (ish) frosting on my cakes the next time i made a cake. since there are really no cakes on the […]

my waxy valentine
i don’t know what possessed me to do this. i saw the cute ice cube trays at ikea. i had seen the idea on blogs. we have approximately 517 used crayons in our house. so, i decided to make heart crayons for isaac’s valentines for his preschool class. it took a little bit of trial […]

ice cream
we met heather and her two girls for some tasty chick-fil-a for lunch (and energy expending) on tuesday. anna had her first taste of ice cream. she wasn’t really a fan of eating the ice cream. just playing with the spoon seemed to work for her though. anyhoo. here’s some shots: livy: maya: isaac (who […]
tasty wooden cupcakes
of all the gifts that isaac received for christmas (bike, etch-a-sketch, toy story figurines, art supplies, books, super mario figurines, boring jammies), none has provided more fun than the melissa and doug wooden cupcake kit that derek brought home at the last minute from ac moore. in fact, i was a little mad, because we […]
