i can’t remember if i mentioned it in the last post, and i’m too lazy to check and see, but after we got back from florida on friday night, we were hit hard with a family of four sized stomach bug. it was not fun. saturday wasn’t much better, spent mostly lying around on couches […]
isaac
di$ney world!!
it goes like this… isaac has never had a big cool birthday party. but, this year, having had to share his life with a baby sister, we thought maybe we’d spring for a bit bigger of a bash and have some friends. maybe at the bouncing place. it was going to be a lot of […]
veggie tales cupcakes
isaac will be four (what?!?!?!) next tuesday. his school party is tomorrow. after much deliberation as to whether he wanted super mario (again), toy story, angry birds (my favorite idea) or veggie tales, he finally settled on veggie tales. so, i made them today. i like all of the characters except for the stupid peas […]
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 […]
things the boy says…
isaac has been saying some pretty good stuff lately… rewind?: while watching the macy’s thanksgiving day parade, he saw the spiderman float and ran to get grampa terry, and said, “grampa turdy, you are not going to believe this. it is amazing. hold on… i just have to fast-backwards to it.” mom v. sarah: lately, […]
christmas cookies: 2010 edition
isaac’s preschool christmas party was supposed to be today, but schools across north carolina were canceled because of a bunch of ice falling from the skies and coating the ground. i was in charge of bringing cookies, frosting, sprinkles, et cetera, for the kids to decorate and take home. so, now, i’m stuck with a […]
razzle dazzle gingerbread men.
on saturday, a massive snowstorm moved across our area, dropping down almost 3 whole inches. this raised our christmas spirit by 87%, so i offered to make cookies with isaac. he wasn’t interested in the making of cookies, but wanted to decorate more gingerbread like he had with jake over thanksgiving. rather than make gingerbread […]
gingerbread boys
last week, for thanksgiving, the new york family traveled down for some festivities. we kept it pretty low key and easy. on thanksgiving day, we went out to michaels and picked up a gingerbread man decorating kit on the cheap and jake and isaac did a fantastic job of decorating them…
the great sick week
last monday, isaac got a fever. two doctor visits, several vomits, lots of sleepless nights, hundreds of coughs, much whining and crying and it finally left his poor little body around saturday. here is our week in pics.
