• Another pumpkin patch outing well worth it.

    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…

  • Great snack.

    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!

  • Will: Six month stats.

    Will had his 6 month checkup today and shots. He was a champ. Anyway, either the scale was off or my baby isn’t as big as he feels! Actually, I shouldn’t say that. Breastfed babies are on a different growth chart than formula fed babies, according to the World Health…

  • Our first parent/teacher conference.

    MOM: This is for you since I know you’re going to ask! Kinda funny that David & I, who were perhaps the subject of my parent’s parent/teacher conferences in high school, attended our first parent/teacher conference for Nathan. Talk about feeling like real grown-ups! The guy I used to pass…

  • Natespeak: questions, questions.

  • ISO: the Perfect Black Clog.

    I’ve been desperately in search of the perfect black clog. C’mon little clog…I know you exist somewhere out there. I went shopping on Tuesday afternoon with no luck. I went yesterday afternoon while N8 was at Catechesis with no luck. I went again this morning after Will’s Kindermusik class with….you…

  • This sleeping thing is all wrong.

    Why is it that when I want Will to sleep he won’t and when I don’t want him to sleep, he does? I had planned to go shoe shopping today while Nathan is at preschool for 2 1/2 hours but it looks like I may have to put that off…
