Girl Time (with a video!)

April 6, 2011 by Elaine

We spend time playing in K’s room many mornings. It’s just so bright and cheery in there and well, I admit, I kinda like the girlie-ness of it all. Sometimes I walk into her closet just to take in all the pink and flowers and polka dots. What? Don’t judge. You’d do the same after…

Banged Up – WW

February 23, 2011 by Elaine

Baby K does have a small bruise to the right of her chin where she took a little tumble over the weekend… However, what I’m really referring to is her hair…. notice anything different? Yeah, Tim and I decided on Sunday night to trim her bangs so that hair would no longer be in her…

February 20, 2011 by Elaine

I’m joining in on Steppin’ Out Saturday (even though I’m posting on Sunday!) over at Harper’s Happenings this weekend.  The whole family headed out to the mall on Saturday afternoon (AFTER I ran a 5K – in 29:55!!! and took the boys to B’s soccer game!) and then to an early dinner.

PSF – Uh Oh, It’s Started! (Honey, Don’t Read This)

January 29, 2010 by Elaine

Dressing a girl is a WHOLE new ballgame. Or maybe just ball (as in “gala”). Tights, bows, SHOES, dresses, SHOES. I was somewhat inspired by this post by Steph and realized I hadn’t visited the local resale establishment since Baby K was just a wee babe (looking for Halloween costumes at the time). For Shame….

Playing “House” (forgive me if it’s a little rambly…)

November 5, 2009 by Elaine

Do you remember when we were little girls and we used to play “house?” (well except for the few men that may read my blog, you probably were busy playing G.I. Joe or some crap…but us girls, we played ‘house.’) Looking back now, I kinda wish I’d played something else more. Like what I’m not…
