Headed to LA! We left for Los Angeles this afternoon. We are spending a week out there with Ben’s family for Christmas. The flight was ok, but not without a few issues. Betsy fought sleep like a champ, but did finally take a 45 minute nap. Ben’s drink spilled when we went through some turbulence. … [Read more…]
At the Doctor We leave for LA tomorrow, which means I have tons to do, and I don’t have the mental capacity to plan out how to get it all done in an efficient way. Thankfully our flight doesn’t leave until after lunch. One of the things I needed to do today was get … [Read more…]
Breakfast with MorMor I met my mom in Columbus today after dropping Carson off at school so that we could trade Christmas gifts. While mailing them (at least for me) would’ve cost about the same as the gas I used, it was well worth it to have eggs, bacon, biscuits and hashbrowns with … [Read more…]
Betsy and Micah We met up with Candace and Micah this afternoon for lunch and a little shopping. We had a really nice time, the weather was amazing, and the kids had a lot of fun together. We headed back home around 3 (a good hour after my kids usually go down for a … [Read more…]
Gingerbread House My sisters and I started a tradition of making gingerbread houses when I was in college. I think we made them every year for 4 or 5 years, and then we all got married and had kids and the whole thing became a lot harder to pull off. But they were works … [Read more…]

First Marshmallow! And she loved it. Of course. More proof that she is in fact my flesh and blood. We went to the Van Kleefs tonight for Lights in the Heights. We didn’t walk around at all, but just driving down the streets was a lot of fun. Carson is way more into Christmas … [Read more…]
Feet Selfie I guess Carson is privy to the current obsession people have with taking pictures of their feet. He had my phone tonight and took quite a few pictures of the living room ceiling, a couple of Ben and me, a lot of his feet a quite a few of himself. Some were … [Read more…]
So Curious I moved all of my nail polish, remover, etc after the last time Betsy got into it and broke a bottle of polish. But she managed to get into the back of the cabinet, behind some rather large boxes and pull it all out. Such a clever girl. I think I might … [Read more…]
Carson Talks Christmas And acts like a 3 year old. The original video is almost 4 minutes long and includes an entire section where I ask him questions and he answers “no!” to every single one with a huge grin. And just so you know, other responses I get to Christmas questions are “Santa was … [Read more…]
