It rained some this weekend, and they forecast rain from Sunday evening through Monday morning, but flooding wasn’t something they mentioned.  This morning however I woke up to Ben still being home (something that hardly ever happens) school canceled, and lots of road closures.  In Sugar Land we only got about 6 inches, but just … [Read more…]

Marimekko release day at Target!  I have been preparing for this for a while now.  I ordered stuff online this morning instead of getting up early and going before church (Ben convinced me this was a poor use of a Sunday morning.)  I did stop by Target with Christopher after lunch, though.  There was much … [Read more…]

Last night Carrie, Emma and Lucie spent the night.  This morning we went to the Sugar Land Farmer’s Market, the Hartmans headed home, we took a trip to Target, brought home CFA for lunch, and then went to hear a speaker at our church this evening.  A pretty relaxed Saturday, which was great. On a … [Read more…]

This afternoon we met up with Meagan and her kids at the park for a picnic lunch.  I am so thankful for her friendship and thankful for her kids and the relationships that have grown between them, Carson, Betsy and Christopher.  Christopher and Bennett were born only about 4 months apart and at first seemed so … [Read more…]

Ben was out of town tonight, so I decided to finally paint the dining room!  These sweet kids wanted to help and so with much internal struggle I handed them both a paintbrush and set some ground rules.  It wasn’t mess-free or particularly helpful, but they enjoyed it and I didn’t yell at anyone, so … [Read more…]

After swim class I had to get groceries, but it was lunch time and I didn’t want to go all the way home and then back out for groceries.  So we had lunch at Five Guys!  While it is not yet easy, it is getting easier to take them all to eat by myself.  It … [Read more…]

I think that out of the blue hugs from Christopher are the best.  He gave one to Betsy today and then they sat like this on the couch for a bit.  I had to document it so that later I can show them how sweet they used to be ;)

Love finding pictures on my phone that I didn’t take!  I especially love when they’re not a selfie of my kids nose, forehead, eyeball, feet, etc.  Carson took this one of Ginger and put the filter on it.

We went to church this morning where Carson had a breakdown and left after being there for just about 20 minutes.  Yesterday kind of did him in I think.  He took 2 naps today and seemed much better. Ben and I had a sitter tonight so we had dinner out alone, which was so nice. … [Read more…]

Today we drove to College Station!  We met up with The Hubleys, went to the baseball game, walked around for a bit and got a snack to keep the kids (and us) from fading, got to see the Fighin’ Texas Aggie Band as they marched to Kyle Field, went to the Maroon v White football … [Read more…]
