There are some nights when you need pancakes for dinner, then there are nights when you need pancakes with whipped cream and sprinkles made into a funny face for dinner.
This was one of those nights.
Claudia’s were slightly more healthy. (Don’t tell her though). She got vanilla yogurt instead of whipped cream - however to [...]

Pancakes to welcome fall

An autumn morning
An Autumn morning’s walk to the bus stop. I love this time of year. The air is just the right temperature (and smell) and the colors are so fantastic!
Claudia loves to sit on our front steps after we walk back from the bus stop. This morning she plopped down to eat the rest of her [...]

It once was lost, but now is found
This is Claudia’s blanket. It goes EVERYWHERE with us – to the bus stop in the mornings (and the afternoons!), to the store, to the kitchen, and of course to nap time. At any given moment in the day I may look over to see Claudia walking around wrapped up tight in her [...]

the search is on

Birthday School Treats

Party Party Party
Our Chuck E Cheese party was not too painful (except to the checkbook). We came home by 12:30 and I was all like, Hey, I don’t have anything to do. FANTASTIC – I am excited. Garrison’s grandma sent Edison 100 dollars (!!!! to a 6 year old???) for a shopping spree. MY DREAM AS [...]

one of those mornings
While cleaning poop from the tub (the most relaxed place for Claudia apparently) I heard a crash in the kitchen. She had climbed onto the table and threw my OVERSIZED (and full) coffee mug to the floor. There is now still poop in the tub and coffee on the floor, the chairs, splashed up under [...]

And we’re back…
I’m sure you want to hear all about our new house (you will hear about it soon! I promise! Really!) but instead you are going to hear about the birthday boy.
(not at all nervous on the first day of first grade – going to a new school – he takes it all in stride)
He’s almost [...]
