I’m pre-posting this, because today is Friday and Friday is “Jemma and Mama Day” :) Aren’t these itty bitty summer shoes just sweet? The sad thing is …I unpacked them from “the next size up” box that I keep in the garage and Jem has already grown out of them! Her little toes hang off […]
What is on Your Heart {4.15.11}
I’m linking up with the lovely Casey and her “What is on Your Heart” Friday blog theme. My hope is to make this a Friday tradition, but I’m not going to stress over it when it doesn’t happen. I blog for fun, not another item on my to-do list. This is my new little nephew! […]
Tootie Mouskawitz and her future siblings
Ever since we landed on the name Jemma for our darling girl I’ve been storing away sibling names. It adds a whole new dimension to choosing names when it needs to coordinate with a sibling. Wouldn’t you agree? If we have another girl I don’t want her name to end in “a”. This rules out […]
Name this post …
I need to come up with a good post title for these weekly updates on food and signing. Nothing is coming to me.I’m having one of those uber non-creative days.Any ideas? This week is brought to you by the food … SWEET POTATOES and the sign for … DADDY via
Flower Child
I shed a few tears on the way to work this morning. Leaving Jemma 4 mornings each week isn’t really getting easier. In fact, it’s getting harder. I had hoped it would get easier once we established a routine. We have the routine down, but the ease hasn’t arrived. The more Jemma grows, the more […]
Steppin’ Out {4.9.11}
Jemma and I (and Daddy) got dolled up for a sweet dinner at McMenamin’s this weekend. I had the Creole Steak Sandwich and cajunized tots. Yum. On Friday I sold some clothes to Plato’s Closet. I love consigning. Like, really love it. I ended up using my earnings for this blouse and a fab belt […]
2011 Etsy Spotlight: Amber for Sale
We’ve made it to 6 months with only a slight whisper of coming teeth. Although I am thankful. I am also bracing myself. Teeth are right around the corner and I shudder at the thought. :::shudder:::: I don’t want to see my girlie in pain and I for sure don’t want her to lose her […]
My Mothering Type
All my life I have loved learning about different personality types and other things that make people the way they are (birth order, upbringing, etc.). Here you can take a quiz to find out what your mothering personality is! So interesting!!! I found out that I’m an ENTJ or Executive Mother …Competent and confident in […]
From the mouth of babes … J-babe that is
I wiggle alot for pictures but can you resist me? I mean … just look at my cheeks and impish grin! P.S. My ma and I are twinsies again. Check out her similiar hoodie from my in-utero days!
Calling all gardeners!
via Spring is peaking out of somewhere here in the Northwest. It’s got me thinking about starting a little herb garden. But, I need some help! We don’t have a backyard so I need something portable. Advice? I really want basil to make my own pesto. What would your other herb faves be? Is there anything tricky […]
Just like Sesame Street
It feels crazy to say it, but I have a 6 month old. Seriously.It feels like I gave birth yesterday. 6 months means alot of things in my mind. I really REALLY wanted to exclusively breastfeed for Jem’s first 6 months and we made it! Girlfriend hasn’t had anything but mama’s milk and since my […]
