A couple of weeks ago, I was going through some old photos of Alana as a baby. There are SO MANY, and they are so amazing too look at – just seeing how much she’s changed. It struck me just what a terrible job I’ve done in documenting Sierra’s first year of life. Well, let...
I had the idea a couple of weeks ago to take some silly photos of Sierra in the Strut booth now that she can sit up and crawl. I had been thinking of the time that Kellie and I set up Strut and took a bunch of photos of Alana when she was two. It...
First things first. I realize that my baby eating rice cereal for the first time is not of interest to anyone but my family, so just consider this a for-the-grandmothers blog post Sierra will be five months old on Saturday, so I think I’ve waited a bit longer on the rice cereal than I did...
Since I already blogged about Alana’s new bedding I thought I would go ahead and post a couple of changes I’ve made in our master bedroom. This is a “before” image with bedding that I didn’t love and wall color that matched the bedding that I didn’t love Because our bedroom is pretty small (our...
Last August when I was pregnant with Sierra, I blogged about the makeover I did; turning our guest bedroom into Alana’s bedroom. I had made the decision to put the new baby in Alana’s old room (the nursery) and graduate Alana to her own “big girl” room. I did this by using the queen bedroom suite...
It’s funny to think that Alana is 3.5 years old and I just now braided her hair for the first time, but alas, it is true. For a VERY long time, her hair wasn’t long enough to braid and now that it is, I thought she might enjoy it that way. So, I braided her...
Okay, so I realize that I post a ton of photos on my blog but don’t post very many updates on how we are actually doing. Several years ago when I started my blog, I had time to really sit and think and write and revise, and well, I loved it. I got hooked on...
Here are a few recent photos of Sierra that I thought were cute… She sleeps: Has happy awake time: And not-so-happy awake time And every day, without fail, generates lots of laundry for me to do. Both of my girls have been spit-up queens. These photos depict a huge percentage of my life right now ...
Happy Valentines Day, everyone!!! We got a super fun Valentines box in the mail this week from my mom…and as usual, her gifts made our day! Here is Alana showing off her adorable new stuff. Some of the gifts were edible… Also inside the box of goodies was a super cute new friend, Casanova! These...
Thank you to Rich for these shots of me and alana this week! (I think the best way to embrace being 30 is to wear pigtails. Braided ones if you really want to go crazy)
