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…
Round and round
On the last day of Spring Break, I drove down to my sister’s house in Arlington with all of the kids and hung out. It’s always fun to be with Andrea and Nessa! We took the kids to a park near their house, and had a blast with this silly yellow spinny chair. It’s just…
10 Years Ago Today…..
Ten years ago today we moved into our house. Who would have guessed that we’d still be here. When we bought our house (our first–a very exciting thing!) Kiwi was not even a year and a half old. We were so young! I remember for months and months after moving in, I would wake up…
"PLANE PARK!" (aka– Gravelly Point)
One of our favorite Spring Break traditions has been our yearly trip to Gravelly Point, a big park right next to National Airport. We pack a picnic lunch and lay out the blankets and watch the airplanes fly in or out of the airport. They look like they are close enough to reach up and…
National Zoo
We took an unplanned trip down to the National Zoo on Tuesday with some friends. We had the most beautiful weather, and despite the unbelievable crowds, we had the BEST time! The animals were being very active (at least the ones we made it to). The lions and the tigers were out pacing, the sea…
