our beautiful everydays
we’ve spent the last almost 5 years doing just what we wanted- when we wanted. we’ve spent spring days in the grass smelling flowers and dirt and feeling our skin warm in the sun. we’ve spent hot summer days in the park for hours filling shoes with sand and duck bellies with bread crumbs. in the fall we walked […]
obstructive sleep apnea
chloe has obstructive sleep apnea and we will be seeing a surgeon next month to talk about having her tonsils and adenoids taken out. she has to be 3 for the surgery. for nearly 3 years she has been waking up several times a night.
noah was not always the best sleeper… he didn’t really sleep […]
this day can end now
i hate hate hate raising my voice at my children but i find myself going there at least once a day lately. it’s been a trying past couple of hours with non-stop fighting and crying and demanding between the two of them and i know it doesn’t help to join in and escalate the situation. […]
princess chloe
chloe loves princesses and tea parties. so for her birthday coming up in april we’re having a…you guessed it…princess tea party birthday. (don’t get me started on the fact that my tiny baby is turning 3 because that’s just not even possible) it seems strange that i’m already planning her party in february but this […]
chloe
chloe is made of magic. when she’s not tired. she likes having her picture taken almost as i love taking pictures of her. almost.
illustrations
i want to start doing some kind of illustrations of noah and chloe. i’m not sure how to begin. i love love love taking photos of them but i’ve always been into the process of taking an image from one set of materials to another. i mean, of course i have big ideas for them […]
“thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes..”
i’m so grateful to have noah and chloe. somewhere amidst the bickering, bothering, crying, and general frustration of being a mom to two toddlers are moments of pure happiness.
chloe’s 2!
chloe is 2 years old today. i can’t see how that could be possible because she was clearly just born.
i could not be happier that i scrapped the idea of killing myself over a big party and took them to chuck e. cheese instead. we picked up her dora cake and that was pretty much […]
missed them
yesterday i had the first alone day that have had in a very long time. no noah, no chloe, no husband. just me and you know what? it wasn’t that great. the highlight of the day was when emily stopped by and brent showed up with lunch. i watched a movie from start to finish […]
we went for a walk in the park yesterday and fed the ducks. we raced and they picked tiny flowers from the blooming tree branches. chloe couldn’t reach and noah would proudly place them in her hands. it made her so happy. i love to watch them together.
it was a little chilly but we don’t […]
