Getting ready for school I’ve been working on getting Carson all ready for school for the past week. I know I’m worrying more than I should and I know that in a week I’ll be putting his bag together in my sleep. But I worry. It’s just something I do. I don’t want him to … [Read more…]
Baby bum Long weekends with a Monday off are great, better in some ways than having a Friday off, I think. But I’m not the one going to work, so what do I know? We went over to the Hartmans for lunch and came back around 3. Both kids took little naps, Betsy’s was shorter … [Read more…]
Grinning It’s hard to believe that she’ll be one in just a few days! I have a lot of work to do for her party…

Miss Mischief Carson introduced Betsy to this treasure of a place yesterday and now I know exactly where she’s headed when I put her down in the living room and she starts crawling away. Pulling on cords, emptying trash cans, tearing up paper. Life does not get any better than this when you’re 1! … [Read more…]
My love-hate relationship with rice This is why I don’t often cook rice for Carson. Betsy made less of a mess than he did at dinner tonight. Ben is out of town until Wednesday and while in my dream world that means I get really serious about getting stuff done, I know that after the … [Read more…]
Bathroom redo in progress Our cave-like half bath has needed a new paint job since we moved in and it’s finally happening! So far all we’ve done is take the old builder grade hexagonal mirror off the wall and paint. Thanks to Ben and Carrie for all of your help! I’m real excited about … [Read more…]
