Month: February 2009

  • Daddy + Daughter

    Tom tries really hard to play with the kids all the same. Gender doesn't matter in the least in this house. All kids get wrestled every single night. But, after a bit, the girls just naturally gravitate away from the wrestling and onto other activities. And Tom and Andrew just keep going. For hours if… Read more

  • Design Team Contest

    I was honored to design for ScrapSupply for almost two years. While it was bittersweet to resign yesterday, it's all for the good. 🙂 And…….Wendy is now holding a Design Team Contest. I can personally attest to the fact that it's a wonderful place to be and it's like a family. And the designers are… Read more

  • Mixed feelings

      Sorry to disappoint all you wonderfully faithful puppy readers, but this post is not about the crazy puppy. (Although, OMG, we are going to change his food. That dog can clear out a room with the smells that come out of his cute little behind.) Anyway, today was an emotional one for me, but… Read more

  • When I turn my back …

    ,

      When I turn my back, he climbs into the dishwasher. Oy vey!!!! At least he hasn't gotten my computer cord (twice!!!) like someone else's puppy I know. 🙂 Today was a busy, busy productive day. Got caught up with lots of paperwork, got lots of assignments done, and got some big decisions made. I'm… Read more

  • he won the lottery

      What does a puppy do when Mommy spills his bowl of food onto the floor? Scramble and scrabble madly trying to eat it before Mommy takes it all away, of course! When I didn't yell at him, but instead took pictures, he glanced up at me quickly in this shot and then went back… Read more

  • no CPR in this house

    Shhhhh….I think Bob might be suffering from overwatering. And I'm not going to give him CPR. I'm a very mean, even callous, grandmother. 😉 Read more

  • Meet Bob

    ,

      Meet Bob. Bob is a plant. Actually, I think Bob must be 2 plants. Maybe 3? Anyway, Bob is Emily's plant. He was sent to her by her uncle when she broke her wrist. Emily promptly named him Bob and put him on her windowsill and has been delighted with Bob ever since. And… Read more

  • 15 weeks and counting…

      Sawyer is in that awkward puppy/dog stage. He's gaining more than 3 pounds every. single. week. Oh. my. God. Anyway, he's still not very tall, but he's getting very loooooooooong and his head and paws are GInormous!!!! The vet thinks he'll be 90 – 100 pounds, but I'm guessing he might end up even… Read more

  • you are my most favorite memory

    ,

      Journaling: Just a regular morning. You came downstairs dressed all in pink with a tunic and matching leggings. You had added a necklace and earrings and were completely put together. And in your amazing little hands, you had a play pink nail file and were just casually filing your nails like it was something… Read more

  • before & after

    So, Emily's room is done. Well, if you don't count that the curtains aren't up, the window trim isn't on, and her mirrors on her closet haven't been washed down. But, ya know, it's done. Basically. She went from a very sweet looking bedroom that I had decorated when she was 3 to a much… Read more
