I’m not necessarily one who sticks with New Year’s Resolutions, although I desire to (the same way I desire to be a runner, but have to admit this might never be the case). I like to ponder all the different things I’d like to accomplish, changes I’d like to make, or skills I’d like…
Yesterday morning, 12.13.14 at 5:30 am, I hunkered down onto a bench at Starbucks. I was up nursing at 3:45 am (Those who don’t know me in “real life” wouldn’t know this, but we have a brand new (biological) nine week old baby girl) by the time she was ready to rest again it was…
{Captured}: Carving the time to capture and create in picture and word. // This about sums it up! Cal is getting into the awesome and hilarious (however challenging) stage of autonomy. He recently realized that he does not need to do everything Max is doing or tells him to do, which translates into a general…
{Captured}: Carving the time to capture and create in picture and word. //Fort Knox, Kentucky on our drive to Nashville. An ice storm created beauty that can hardly be captured; every tree, hillside, electrical pole and wire within eye sight was encrusted // ———————————————————————————————————————- I’ve captured a moment; now to capture some thoughts.

Last week, I started {Captured}: Carving the time to capture and create in picture and word. Since we’re still in the first week of February, I’m coupling with the Highlights at our Home {January 2014}! But if you want to see a couple favorite moments from this week, check out our Counting Hearts Activity (and printable)…
Eek! I never actually posted a recap of our November and December Highlights. Beware! We are long and picture-heavy here folks, but I just had to capture a glimpse of our last couple months! In November: We started off super strong with a sibling sleepover, game-night with Ang & George. Angie prepared the homemade pasta they learned on…
When Andy and I started Our {Real Food} Journey it also spurred the realization that we not only put a lot of junk in our bodies, but on them. I started dabbling in homemade organic home and body products, some of which resulted in: Hard Lotion Bars Whipped Body Butters Sugar Scrubs, and Organic Beeswax candles…
I hope you and your had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! We were away at my in-laws for three days and it was so restful and relaxing. There was lots of eating, talking, playing, and reading on the couch – pretty much perfect. Now, we’re diving back into reality head first and I am gearing up…
Last Friday, Max got the stomach flu for the first time since he was 10 months old. I think it was a small, but glorious miracle that we did not all come down with it. The first time he was sick (which was also the first time I was a parent with a sick child),…
November has looked like a lot of this… Which quickly turns into this… Which then usually results in this… Allowing someone to get his share of this… and this! We bounce back quickly though… And Mommy doesn’t mind sneaking a peak at my “Andyman Solution” :) mmhmm… And then someone gets cold and the snot…
