When Noah was two years old I started a blanket for him for Christmas. I really enjoyed making it but then like with a lot of projects I came to a part of the construction that was annoying and tedious and I put it away. He turned four this weekend and for the last 1.5 years I’ve said “I really …

With all the photos I took of the race this is my favorite of the day. The children that were with us were getting restless while we waited for the girls to finish the race, and a bag of crisps managed to keep them occupied for a while. I think next to Faela, Xiem (the boy in the middle) is …

On Sunday while I was out watching the marathon I saw these three boys. They were having such a laugh that I had to get my camera out and get a photo. Two of the boys had their jackets pulled up over their heads pretending to be headless while tormenting the boy in the middle. All three of them couldn’t …

For the last few days I’ve been keeping myself busy but working on a crochet project I started a while back. It’s only the second time I’ve crocheted something but I’m quite enjoying working on this pattern. The first time was when I made a baby blanket for Faela, my friend’s adorable baby girl who is now growing like a …
Read More »Bones is one of my favorite shows, and in the latest episode Dr. Brennan gets a bit of baby fever. Watching her try to be maternal and relate to babies is hilarious. Even more hilarious than than when she tries to relate to adult humans. The whole baby fever thing is something I can totally understand, as my husband and …

It started early in the afternoon out of nowhere and looked beautiful with the sun still shining. Then it started getting nasty. The …
