Warmth – You Capture

February 17, 2011 by Elaine

Me and the little girl found ourselves outside for a bit this afternoon. Although it was pretty cloudy it was lovely outside and perfect for exploring. And the sun peaked out a few times, gracing us with its WARMTH.

LOVE grows and so do babies…

February 14, 2011 by Elaine

Last year, she wore this outfit as a dress while eating her first cereal on Valentine’s Day. My heart burst with love for her… This year it’s more of a tunic and she is ready for “CHOC-ET” instead… 🙂  And my heart may just explode any minute now… (what? she is her mother’s daughter…re: chocolate)…

16 Months and 10 Days

February 11, 2011 by Elaine

 She wanders into the pantry and points her little baby girl finger up to the shelves. She makes eye contact with me and says “NACK?!” Kinda like her brother used to around this age. I know what she wants so I reach into the box to get one for her whereupon a big smile spreads…

Time Stoppage, The Impossible Dream

January 21, 2011 by Elaine

Are you like me?Do you ever wish time would just stop for a while with your kids?  Like right now, Baby K is about to enter the phase that we, at our house, like to call “the age of maximum cuteness”. From around 16 to 20 months the little ones are just so crazy cute…

Better Days – WW

January 19, 2011 by Elaine

When she got up yesterday morning her eyes were red all around and half closed.  Which is somewhat normal for me.  But not her.  She was HOT.  Which she’s usually NOT.  She coughed a little. I thought maybe it was a 24 hour thing but I should have known better.  She was worse this morning….

Does it count as “vlog” if all you see is my arm and I’m just talking in the background?

December 12, 2010 by Elaine

While Tim and The B Man were off to the school book fair the other night I felt the need to record the smaller kids in the bath together. They are so cute. I know you won’t disagree. It’s actually physically impossible to do so. And please, watch the whole thing (or FF to the…

14 Months of K

December 3, 2010 by Elaine

I’m in love with this little girl. I was the moment they gave her to me after her birth, 14 months ago yesterday, and I still am today. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long. But every morning as I go to get her and I lift her up to my chest and smell…

Early

November 21, 2010 by Elaine

There are two times when I know my children will be quiet. When they are sleeping. And when they are eating dessert. They get a lot of dessert. And a fair amount of sleep… This morning Little G got up to take a tinkle at 5:34 according to the clock in our bedroom. Afterward he…

Can We Even Classify These as Pig Tails? – WW

November 17, 2010 by Elaine

I’m not really sure how she got so big. Or how her hair got sort of long enough. Where did my little bundle go? Where did the baby go that spoke nary a word but now says “bye bye” and “nigh nigh” and “ba ba” as she toddles around? The “baby” that now smiles with…
