WW – My Little Firecrackers

July 7, 2010 by Elaine

On Friday the boys and I made ‘homemade’ sparklers out of pipe cleaners. (should read, I made them while the boys watched and ‘critiqued’ my work). And then on Saturday they had fun trying to keep them away from their sister while all she did was try to put them in her mouth just like…

One Year AND Nine Months

July 2, 2010 by Elaine

One year ago today we moved our life to Louisiana. Tim left a couple of days before and then I packed the boys in the car, left our good friends’ house, picked up my MIL and we drove away. Me, the boys, my MIL and the sweet baby in my belly. You know, the same…

WW – ‘Bed Head’ hee hee

June 30, 2010 by Elaine

We played on the bed today. I wanted to lay down for a bit. She did not. She was moving too fast for me. She wanted to eat the camera strap. I only got a glimpse of her hair in this shot. She was headed for MY hair. She found it.

Playing Catch Up

June 21, 2010 by Elaine

The other day I found myself ‘venting’ about the fact that this could be a crazy Summer with the kids. Yeah, remember that? And now, it’s already less than 2 months before The B Man goes back to school and we have another trip planned in a few weeks to celebrate my parents’ 50th wedding…

WW – Just a Taste…

June 16, 2010 by Elaine

Baby K got her first taste of Daddy’s homemade cinnamon rolls while on vacation last week… To say she ‘liked them’ might just be the understatement of the year.

I Heart Faces – All About Babies

June 15, 2010 by Elaine

When I saw that this week’s challenge at I Heart Faces was about babies, well, I had to enter. See, I have one of those! And she makes some pretty cute faces. This was taken on the day she turned 6 months old and is one of my favorite pictures I’ve ever snapped of my…

What Baby K Would Say

June 1, 2010 by Elaine

A sweet, adorable little girl I know is 8 months old today. (crazy, I know.) She cannot talk yet but if she could, here are a few things I think she might say… (I also did this when Little G was about this age and it cracked me up.) From the mouth of my babe:…

WW – Grow On

May 26, 2010 by Elaine

Did you just say “uh oh?” Because I did when she first did this yesterday. Yes folks, she’s definitely on the move. And my life as I knew it is now over. Oh, and the 6 year old is officially a first-grader after completely Kindergarten today. Not to mention the 3 year old is now…

South Beach Before the Beach

May 21, 2010 by Elaine

If you follow me on twitter or even good ole FB, you know I’ve started the South Beach diet, as of Monday. And I’m here to tell you, the first couple of days are HARD. I could have INHALED the entire container of strawberries when I was packing some for The B Man’s lunch on…
