What a fun weekend! We did a few first-time events and everything was a hit! Saturday we took the boys sledding for the first time and loved every minute of it. We met another family at the hill with some really cool high-tech sleds and they let us borrow them so we could race. Gabe … Read more
Standing Tall!
Garrett is such a cuddle bug I just melt whenever I see him smile! He gets so excited when he finds himself standing. He is 8 1/2 months old, and it’s not until I saw these photos that it really hit me: he’s not an infant any more!:( My little bundle is getting so big. … Read more
Sand and Snow
Yesterday was a banner day! We had so much fun in the snow, although my fort-building skills need some work! My brothers were always so masterful with building snow sculptures growing up (you can see I did not acquire that skill).:) This seemed to do the trick for Grant’s action heroes though and we had … Read more
Wake Up!
I don’t know what’s going on, but my energy is zapped! I am a walking blob lately. There are so many things I need to do but I just don’t have the motivation and I can’t get it together. Last week Mark and I announced we are running in the Cleveland half marathon. He has … Read more
Babyography
Love this idea. Nancy from All About Baby contacted me to share her great items. I think this is my favorite! It’s a birthday scroll that includes over a dozen personalized facts and features and beautiful artwork. Nancy is a mom herself and came up with the idea after being disappointed with some of the … Read more

Timing is Everything
We have a Disney dilemma. When is the best time to go?! We had pushed back our big trip until the end of the year (between Christmas and New Year’s) and I just heard that is a bad idea. We had some great people in studio today, Brooke (who was named after yours truly, so … Read more
Buy Baby Bunting
Perfect for your little bundle! We bought this car seat cover/bunting for Garrett this week from the JJ Cole Collection. After using it for a few days I wonder what took us so long, I wish we had it for our other two boys when they were little! During the winter it’s tough because you … Read more
Best Lip Gloss Ever!
My cousin does make-up freelance and works for Chanel, Mac, and Estee Lauder. So when she gives me something to try, I am always excited! She said I would love this Pure Color Gloss from Estee Lauder and it’s now my new favorite! The color is: Icy Pink and I love it because it’s such … Read more
Riding the Potty Train!
It’s a GREAT day! Grant is officially POTTY TRAINED! I hope anyway.:) I am so proud of him! A few months ago I told Grant he couldn’t go to school until he was potty trained and he said “Where’s the potty train?! I want to ride the potty train!”. It cracked me up! Mary sent … Read more
