Project 365

Thanks to Carrie for letting us throw all her pennies in to the fountain.  Fun was had by all!

In my haste to get these posts up I’ve been leaving out the mundane details of the day that I’d included the last time I did this project, which is probably better. No one truly cares how many diapers I changed or who had a poop, or how many loads of laundry I did, how … [Read more…]

This child.  I can’t wait to see what he has in store for us in the years to come.  He did this entirely on his own, by the way. Unfortunately I have a feeling that some of the things he will do in the future will not be things I will appreciate or laugh at or … [Read more…]

After 2 weeks of no ballet class, we started up again today! This was basically Betsy the entire class.  Refusing to do or doing the opposite of whatever the teacher and the other girls did.  At one point during stretching time she was chewing on her ballet shoes.  Can’t wait for the recital in May! … [Read more…]

He insisted on doing his own hair for school today.  “I look stylish.” he said to me upon exiting the bathroom.

Pink, glitter, sequins and unicorns.  That’s all she needs.
