Truth be told, I’m not entirely sure what happened with Carmendy this past month. Because: second child and Christmas. So this post is going to be short and sweet. (My apologies to Carmendy, I promise to pay more attention to your milestones in the future and to finally add a photo of you to the… Continue Reading
Are you a mom with young children who made a New Year’s resolution to lose a few pounds? Don’t stress too much. Remember you’ll be getting an extra workout this winter — everyday when you have to leave the house and force your children into cold weather clothing. And while you’re trying to keep your… Continue Reading
This update is incredibly late. Carmendy will be 16 months old in one week — yikes! But the past couple of weeks have been difficult, with the loss of our third baby. Although my heart has not yet mended (or maybe it never will?), I won’t let it stop me from going on and sharing my… Continue Reading
It’s that time of the year — time to regale you with tales of our 3-year-old Owen. These update posts can get quite long, so without further ado, here’s what our little man has been up to for the past three months. Now that we’re well into age three, I can officially say that three-year-olds… Continue Reading
I’m about ten days behind with this monthly update, as usual. BUT Carmendy is still 14 months old AND we took her photos on the actual date of her birth this month. So I’m kind of killing it this month, at least compared to my punctuality in the rest of my life. I should probably give this post… Continue Reading
Aaaahh. It’s fall. A time for spiced lattes, sweaters, pumpkin patches, and apple pies. A season filled with outdoor activities for families – festivals, hayrides, apple picking, corn mazes, pumpkin patch visits. Glorious days in the golden sun of autumn, playing in the falling leaves and savoring the crisp air. Yep, fall is here and… Continue Reading
Good news! I’ll be chronicling Carmendy’s second year of life monthly, so you’ll continue to see her cute pics every 30 days. Here’s our 13-month-old’s first second year report and photos. It’s a little late (okay, maybe two weeks late….but at least I’m posting this before she’s 14 months old!). This past month Carmendy reached… Continue Reading
She’s one! What a wonderful year it has been with our baby girl Carmendy. I tried to soak in every moment with her, knowing how quickly the days and months go by. And here I am trying to write a post about the very last month of her first year and I can barely remember… Continue Reading
Hard to believe, but Owen has been three for nearly a month. I swear we must have jumped through a wormhole because it feels impossible that I have a three year old and a one year old. While I find myself in the throes of deep sadness every time I think about how big my… Continue Reading
Owen is three! And to celebrate his big day, we threw him a party inspired by playtime outdoors. Owen loves playing outside, so this was the perfect theme for our little man — dirt, wagons, water guns, balls, bikes, worms, jump ropes and bugs galore! The theme was brought together with the colors, which were neon… Continue Reading
