I Heart Hearts & Miss Elaine-ous Monday

February 6, 2012 by Elaine

The heart shape is really quite enticing, isn’t it?  It’s one of my favorite things about Valentine’s Day. Or just life in general.  It’s just so cute and symmetrical and pretty in any color. And well, sweet. And since I currently have a little girl, I’m utilizing hearts to the fullest.   I found these…

A video that makes me wish I took more video

February 1, 2012 by Elaine

I’m sure someone thought we were silly taking a quick video of our little girl “shivering” at cold ice cream the other day. Like maybe the young guy in the background that you see very briefly. Or maybe the older man across the way whose eye I caught during the process. Perhaps he wished he…

Thank goodness I have LOTS of photos…

January 24, 2012 by Elaine

She’s growing up.  Already. Yeah I know, she’s only a little over two (2 years and 3.8 months to be exact) but when she’s your last?  You kinda wish she could be a baby forever. Maybe this is why I have yet to give potty training a real “go” or I am hesitant to completely pull the…

Life is Messy

January 18, 2012 by Elaine

Her face is rarely clean. In order for it to be I would have to chase her around the house with a wet wipe or wash cloth.  ALL. DAY. LONG. So instead I just take a lot of photos like this. But it’s okay because those baby blues seem to overshadow the messiness and she…

For the record, she did NOT sit in his lap…

December 12, 2011 by Elaine

I posted this photo on Insta.gram on Saturday while we waited in line to see Santa.  Or I should say while my oldest son (the only one to actually approach, talk to and sit in Santa’s lap) and the rest of the family waited in line for him to see Santa. Bygones. Anyway, someone commented…

Moments Captured – Me & K

December 5, 2011 by Elaine

In the morning, when I get K out of her crib, I kiss her face a bunch of times over and over and over again and call her by her nickname of the moment and hug her really tight.It seems like every time, I’m love-struck by the fact that she is mine, that I have a daughter.As…

She found a pencil

November 11, 2011 by Elaine

K wrote all over the tile floor in pink crayon yesterday.  She’s always had access to more things at a young age than the boys ever did.  We have this coloring/art table in the corner of our living room and she goes there a lot to draw (I use the term lightly).  But  this day…

She’ll thank me later. Or something like that.

October 27, 2011 by Elaine

So, I decided yesterday morning that the paci has to go.  Except for when she sleeps. Baby steps. That means K has been sporting this face quite a bit, usually with tears included.  Though I’m happy that I can see her cute little mouth now, in all the photos I take. But today was REALLY…

Whatcha Gonna Be This “Hallween”? – Miss Elaine-ous Monday

October 17, 2011 by Elaine

My Dad is a funny guy.  He likes to tell silly jokes a lot and it’s worth it to hear him tell the same ones over and over just see his big smile and hear his belly laugh. When I was a kid he would often tease me during the month of October by saying,…
