Two Years Old!

My dear Elanor,
Today, you are two years old!
I typed that and immediately got a little teary. I can’t believe it’s been two whole years since you were born and became a part of our family. What a wild and wonderful two years it’s been!
There are not words to describe the depth of my love for [...]

Lame

LAMEST NABLOPOMO POST EVER. My computer is still not working and Wordpress does not agree with Brett’s iPhone. Maybe I’ll finally get to the Apple store tomorrow….

Ack

Of course, just my rotten luck, the charger on my computer died, smack in the middle of NaBloPoMo. I’m posting from Brett’s phone and it is a total pain. So consider this my post for today. Sorry to be so lame… I’m going to try to go to the Apple store tomorrow so I hope [...]

riding my bike

Since we got our car about six weeks ago, I’ve ridden my bike only a handful of times. I can feel the effects of this lack of exercise in my body. I feel…slower, more sluggish, just kind of gross and blobby, and I know I’m gaining weight. Ugh! It is kind of just an icky [...]

prioritizing

So, obviously, I haven’t been around blog-land much lately, whether writing here or reading and commenting on other people’s blogs.
Honestly, I’ve been feeling kind of overwhelmed by life lately. Elanor’s birthday party was amazing and fun and wonderful, but it was like all the fondant-covered cake and homemade ice cream caused a sugar high of [...]

almost done!

Well, I’m almost done with NaBloPoMo. And if I remember to post tomorrow night, I’ll have been successful! Yay! That will be a first.
We have had a nice weekend. My mom and sister and niece and nephews came for Thanksgiving and stayed through today. It was fun to have them here and to hang out [...]

pretty awesome

Elanor and I spent quite a while today watching clips on You Tube from Sesame Street, mostly stuff that I remember from when I was a kid. I loved Sesame Street when I was young, and while I don’t remember this clip (it was a few years before my time) it just reminds me of [...]

Praise the sweet baby Jesus, I didn’t delete my blog after all.

It’s me. I am here. My blog is not gone, although for a few hours I thought it was because I am dumb and made switching my hosting way, way harder than it needed to be.
I’m in the process of making the leap from Blogger to Wordpress, finally, so hopefully my old posts, etc, will [...]

our 15 minutes of fame

Brett’s been experiencing quite the spurt of notoriety recently. As the ever-supportive wife by his side at all times (ha), I’ve been riding along on his coattails and have shared some of the recent media attention.
The barista competition was the first thing that thrust him into the spotlight. He had a picture and a mention [...]

note to self

The 100-calorie, fat-free Jello puddings are a great idea. 100 calories? Chocolatey pudding goodness? Sign me up!
Well, the whole principle becomes defeated if you eat three of them. Uh. Not like I did that or anything. Right.
