A quick note to say that Brett’s French press post is written and awaiting my editing, so I hope to have it up within a week or so. Also, thanks to Jenn and Sara for de-lurking to comment on my last post! Jenn, I totally remember you and have seen your blog before, through Bree’s, [...]
Hello there, friends in bloggy land.
How have things been for the past, oh, almost two months? Yikes! Two months! That’s longer than I thought it would be between posts, but, you know, oh well. Gotta remember that whole “no stressing out” thing, right?
Really, things have been fine at our house. Busy, stressful at times, but [...]
Hi! I am here. I have just been consumed by first birthday party madness for the past week. We had Elanor’s party on Saturday, and it was so, so much fun. I’m working on a recap to post later this week. Our family was very generous to Elanor, and they showered her with amazing presents. [...]
Oh, my girl,
You are a whole year old! It seems like you’ve been with us forever, and yet it seems like just yesterday you were born.
You are such a little person now. I love seeing your personality — even when it manifests itself in willfullness and tantrums — emerging.
This past month has been full of [...]
Elanor’s getting about seven more teeth, again, which seems to be the story of my life these past few months. It’s led to a new round of biting everything (including Mama while nursing…OUCH), which I am severely trying to discourage as it hurts like you wouldn’t believe to be bit while a baby nurses.
We were [...]
It’s been quite the year for us, full of events that were made up of really hard things intertwined with really good things.
My pregnancy with Elanor and her birth was the first hard/good thing to happen. She is amazing, and wonderful, and definitely one of the highlights of the year: the ultimate good thing. But [...]
It’s late, the snow is falling (and falling and falling) outside, and Elanor and Brett are sleeping. I’m supposed to be blogging, but despite the fact that I usually compose about a million blog posts in my head throughout the course of any given day, I can’t seem to think of much to write. So, [...]
Dear Elanor,
Today you are 11 months old! You have changed so dramatically in the past few weeks; your development has just exploded lately. I’m not even sure where to start.
You are not walking without support, although we are thinking more and more now that it’s coming any day. You will push various items around the [...]
I think I might fall over of cuteness overload.
I just put pigtails in Elanor’s hair for the first time. Oh. My. Lordy.
I’m just gonna post pictures because there’s not much I can say; I’m too overwhelmed by it.
Now, seriously. I mean, I know I’m her mom and all, so I think she’s cuter than most [...]
Well then. That was a slightly longer break than I’d intended on taking, but life just got going and I sort of let blogging fall off my radar.
Elanor’s sick again, or is sick still, if you prefer. I feel really sad for her. She’s got a cough and is all sniffly and is getting about [...]
