Wondering what those four things have in common? That’s what CandyMan gave me for our anniversary yesterday. Yep, April 28th was our 13th anniversary. Wow, do I feel old! It has been a fun, exciting 13 years, and I’m grateful to be married to such an amazing person. Our wedding day–April 28, 1995 Before you…

Twins!!
For those of you eagerly awaiting pictures of The Twins…..here are a few of my favorites! (Baby A–Pirate–on left, Baby B–Professor–on right) For those of you who don’t know the family, these boys were both around 6 lbs–great size for twins!! They were exactly a week old when I took their pictures last Friday. What…
I LOVE the SpRiNg!
Today was the perfect weather for me. Not too cold, not too hot, no humidity, cooled off in the evening. Beautiful! Of course, we had to take advantage of the sun and the warm weather. After playing for a while, Apple didn’t want to come back inside. Luckily, I had my camera handy. :) PS–I’m…
What we’ve been up to….
It’s never boring around here! Here are a few things that we’ve been doing this last week: I finally finished the Twins’ blankets. I wanted to do something special for my good friend who just had twin boys this last Friday. I forgot how long it takes to crochet ONE blanket, let alone two! Despite…
Babies, Babies, Everywhere!!
I am just SO excited….my friend is having her twin boys right now as I type. I’m watching big sister today. Yay!! Speaking of babies, another friend, Krista, had her second little girl–Brooklyn–last week, and yesterday I got to meet her! I had so much fun taking a few (by a few, I mean more…
Softball Season!
Noodle decided to sign up for softball this year on a city league. Her team is full of great girls (half of them are also in her girl scout troop) and her coaches are so nice. It’s been a very fun experience so far (we’re only 2 1/2 weeks into the season). On Saturday, Noodle…
Could this be it….???
And what is IT, you ask? ………..Apple is wearing underwear today!! And he has gone potty on the toilet 3 times this afternoon, and had one accident. This is very unexpected. I bought Apple some big boy underwear today and he loved them SO much he has wanted to wear them ever since. Woohoo! Since…
DC Cherry Blossoms
Call me crazy….I took the kids to DC again today. We thought it was a great idea to check out the annual Cherry Blossom festival on their day off school. Unfortunately, the “14%” chance of rain turned into a very wet, cold day. We rode the metro down to the city, and then walked from…
The Vision and Perspective of a 5-year-old
On the way to pick up Reese’s Dora sunglasses that she left at the doctor’s office the other day, this is what she said to me: Reese: “Mom, I think I need new glasses.” Me: “Why, hunny? Your Dora glasses are new.” Reese: “Well, I can’t see very well. When I look at things far…
Crazy for pictures!
Ever since I photographed my friend, Wendy’s, wedding and then did a photo project for church, I have been obessessed with improving my photography skills. I invested in two new lenses, which have been TOO fun to experiment with (I sold the one that came with my camera). The result of all of this experimenting…
