My sister, Andrea, shared these pictures of my daughter Reese this week on her Facebook page. The pictures were taken late this summer while Reese was staying with Andrea for a few weeks. My kids always do the FUNNEST things when they’re with Aunt Andrea and their cousins! PS - I totally had NO idea [...]
Our neighbors left for a beach vacation yesterday and asked us to fish-sit their pet goldfish, Marshmallow, who is from the 2011 County Fair. Yes, a one-year-old goldfish. I decided NOT to tell them that we’ve never had much luck keeping goldfish alive for more than a couple of weeks, let alone a whole year. [...]
My kids love their little cousin, who turned 2 on September 11. We gathered at my house on Saturday - all eleven of us for cake, candles, ice cream, presents, and lots of noise! Oh, the noise! But it was happy, happy noise. We are so blessed to have my sister and her family living [...]
I’ve had three photo shoots in the last week…so you can guess what I’ve been doing with most of my time. Editing! The three families pictured in these collages are long-time clients of mine. I’ve done engagement, wedding, maternity, newborn, and bigger kid shots with all of them, and I love to see them grow [...]
I hardly made it home before the kids started this new school year, and after just two days back to school, it hardly feels real. Heck, I barely unpacked from all of my trips today…. Despite my absence this past month, the kids were ready (both physically and emotionally) to go back to school. And [...]
I sent KitKat off on a plane this afternoon…All by herself. Wow. What a thing for a mom to do. I don’t think I’ll really relax until she’s back home later tonight. After dropping her off, though, my mom and I stopped at my sister’s house and relaxed for a while with my nieces and [...]
This is the week I look forward to all year long. This is the week when I can take off my mom-hat and enjoy time with my mom and whoever else makes it out to visit. This is the week when I fill my bucket, revisit my college days, and spend a full week in [...]
I wrote my Blogher Top 10 list this morning and was not entirely shocked to find that everything that made my time at Blogher so much fun really had nothing to do with Blogher. That is not to say that I didn’t have a wonderful time at Blogher this year. It was just different. And [...]
I think my boys enjoyed a little dose of star treatment in New York this week…what do you think? For more inspiring photos, check: High Impact Mom, The Bonafide Life, Shanamama, From Dates to Diapers, Not Your Mom Blog, The Divine Miss Mommy, Colorado Moms, Rajean Blomquist and Zensible Mama and link your own photo [...]
While we were in upstate New York last week, we found a cozy little park where we stopped, ate lunch, and played on the old-time playground equipment. While the slide and see saws and merry-go-round wouldn’t stand a chance in Montgomery County, Maryland, where I am right now, they sure brought me back to my [...]
