The cookie baking activity was literally an all day event here today. After having our usual every-other-Friday playgroup over at our place on this rainy morning, I was exhausted but I had already promised Nathan we’d bake cookies. William was feeling a little under the weather so it was difficult to say the least. We…
Dear Grandma, Today would’ve been your 89th birthday celebration. It’s been three long years since you’ve been gone and I miss having you for so many reasons. On the one hand it feels as though it’s been so fast. It seems like you’ve been gone longer. On the other hand it seems as though time…
Both boys are asleep right now so I thought I’d prepare the cookie dough that Nathan and I need for making cookies. We’re making sugar cookies and decorating them Halloween-y for tomorrow’s playgroup here and when going through my ingredients, noticed I don’t have enough margarine/butter! ARRGHH!!! I wish I had a great neighbor that…
I don’t know why but here it is 11 pm and I am SO BEAT today! It has been a long, rough day for me. I feel like I’ve been moving nonstop since 7 am! I guess it doesn’t help that I’ve only downed one meal today – lunch. I just wasn’t hungry at dinner…
On Saturday we all attended Gabe’s (Baifu – as Nathan calls him) 2nd birthday celebration. His actual birthday isn’t until the 10th of November but with Jen being due just days away from his birthday, she decided to throw him a “Boo Bash” birthday celebration instead. Originally it was going to be outdoors but since…
Will had his first taste of bananas and carrots over the weekend and he loves them both! He especially likes the bananas with his cereal….YUM! Just like his big brother and mommy! The carrots are a little on the messy side but who cares?
He’s finally found my Tupperware cabinet. Thank goodness for that or else he would’ve fussed while I was loading the dishwasher tonight.
Today the funniest thing going on around here is the new noise William has discovered that comes from his sippy cup spout rubbing against his gums. Nathan was on the table playing with play-doh this evening while Will was in his high chair and I was (attempting to) feed him carrots. He then reached for…
We visited Johnson Farms yesterday with our church group and it was such a beautiful day to be there. Although they didn’t have the pumpkin cannon like the patch we went to with Nathan’s preschool, we all had a great time with some of the other attractions there. N8 playing the hay maze with his…
My afternoon snack today was a slice of deli cheddar cheese (YUM-O!!) and cheese & garlic croutons right out of the bag. Mmmm….so satisfying!
