Build a Better Birthday Party with Wilton!

Monday, January 18, 2010 by Lolli 449 Comments

As a mother of 5 children, I know a bit about kids’ birthday parties. Starting in December, I have a child’s birthday every 2-6 weeks until June. It can be tiring (“One down, four to go!”) but it is also fun. I love to bake. I have discovered over the years that it is possible…

We Are Family

Sunday, January 17, 2010 by Lolli 5 Comments

family portrait Maryland

This is not my family. This is my good friend’s family. This is my good friend who, 8 years ago, encouraged me to pursue photography. Eight years ago, this family was the very first family that I did a photo shoot for. They’ve grown a lot in the last 8 years, and I am happy…

Lost and Found

Doug and Twizzler, reunited

Last night, I was determined once and for all that I would find Doug. (If you haven’t seen the rest of the Doug saga, check out these two posts first: It’s a Mom’s Duty and Missing Doug) I dumped out the huge Rubbermade tub that is lovingly referred to in our house as the “Boy…

The Goldfish Guide to Raising Optimistic Kids

Saturday, January 16, 2010 by Lolli 5 Comments

Today I am going to stay away off my computer and enjoy my family. I’m going to play games (like Bananagrams, which is our current daily game), read my book (if you’ve ever considered reading Three Cups of Tea consider this your motivation to do it–it’s great!), and maybe even sneak out on a lunch…

Give Me Your Best Shot

Thursday, January 14, 2010 by Lolli 13 Comments

I am a sucker for sunsets. Last night, I was cooking dinner and looked out my kitchen window to see this: When I was younger, orange skies spooked me. They looked like fire. Doom. They looked wrong. I remember one evening vividly. I was driving back from afternoon Chinese school with my best friend (who…

What Team Are You On?

Thursday, January 14, 2010 by Lolli 23 Comments

No, I’m not talking about Team Edward or Team Jacob. I’m talking about Team Over or Team Under. As in toilet paper. I’m on Team Over, just in case you were wondering. Always have been. It drives me crazy when people put my toilet paper roll on backwards. You can head to https://www.cottonellerollpoll.com to see…

Missing Doug

Wednesday, January 13, 2010 by Lolli 17 Comments

Security object

A week ago I wrote a post about losing Doug. Doug is more than Twizzler’s favorite toy. Doug accompanies him to friend’s houses, he helps him do his homework after school each day, and he keeps him company in bed every night. Doug is still missing. Yesterday, Twizzler couldn’t sleep. He came to my room,…

Fears? Conquered! A WordFul Wednesday

Tuesday, January 12, 2010 by Lolli 20 Comments

Necco was born terrified of animals. It didn’t matter how small, cute, or gentle the animal was. She didn’t want to be anywhere near it. Her greatest fear has always been dogs, but even creatures as tiny as butterflies gave her the creeps. When we saw a dog across the street, she would literally climb…

Monday, January 11, 2010 by Lolli 11 Comments

It’s birthday week at i heart faces’! One year ago a fantastic website was born. I heart faces meant so much to me as I was branching out and trying to become a better photographer.
