We are now at the end (the very teensy tiny last bit will be tonight) of baby leave. Garth took 20 days off when Ginger was born and he goes back to work tomorrow. This means that as of 6am tomorrow I am officially the primary caregiver of TWO children. oh my. The last three [...]

Well, here it is- my estimated date of delivery. I was optimistic that I would be holding a little ginger girl by this time, but here I am waddling around the house, wishing that I could choose the time of her arrival. Tonight would be great. Ya hear that ging? It’s a surreal thing, waiting [...]

We celebrated my birthday this past week. We skipped selling at the market and instead dropped by an estate sale (I’ve always wanted to check one out) and lounged around in typical saturday manner. Garth photographed a wedding later in the day and Jack and I tagged along to Seville square even though it was [...]

Our long weekend went like this: friday: sleep in. walk/bike/jog to the bike shop to drop of Garth’s bike for a tuneup. meander to the thrift store. buy books. get home right before it pours rain. screen in porch. race plastic boats down the flooding gutters. saturday: wake way too early. get mad at each [...]

This past month has been monumental for Garth and me. I’ve been a little distracted with my real life and haven’t posted often, but this is what has been happening: My parents visited from Spokane, WA a few days after my due date and we spent the week running errands, stocking the kitchen, readying the [...]

Mom was planting a container garden on our porch. Dad was painting Jack’s crib lime green. Garth was sorting computer parts. And I was hooking a t-shirt rug with my feet up. It is so great to have my parents here. It would be even more splendid if Jack decided to join us. =)

I am one lucky girl. I celebrated Christmas twice this year. In Pensacola, Garth and I rode our bikes around our neighborhood on Christmas Eve looking at all of the Christmas lights and broadcasting Christmas music. I was wearing shorts. Garth made a fort in the living room and we cuddled inside and watched movies [...]

My friend Jandre tagged me, and I like lists…so these are my six things. 6 TV shows: ( I don’t watch TV!- but I netflix or own these) The Office The Martha Stewart Show Project Runway Friends Trading Spaces um….I’ve seen every Smallville because Garth likes them, does that count? 6 Favorite Restaurants: Red Robin [...]

If you are fans of Joshua and Julie Lee then you were expecting this little announcement. They welcomed little Samuel into their family this last weekend! From what I remember, he looks much like the newborn Joshua… hmmm… More baby shout outs: The foxiest lady ever, Jandre Sherwood recently had her second child, little Micah, [...]

Dear Florida, I’m writing to you from my last day in Spokane, WA. I have been enjoying the coolness of the summer (why you gotta be so scorching?), and the company of the fine people pictured below (plus about 10 more). My husband and I are planning to camp over the fourth of July weekend, [...]
