Have you ever heard your breakfast food cry out for help? It does!! We had apple, eggs, ham, and grapes for breakfast the other morning. The cry of Uriah's food started in low, but it steadily grew as each food item on his plate was conquered. The finally cries came from the apples - loud … Continue reading Attack the Apples

In the rearview mirror…
Life has its moments where you want to hold on to anything not moving and hope that everything else around you will stop spinning. Within the span of nine days our house sold, my husband interviewed, accepted a job, and we loaded a moving truck. In that order. A few days after the moving truck … Continue reading In the rearview mirror…
Wait for it… WAIT FOR IT…….. W A I T…….
Whether it is a holding pattern in flight, a phone call on-hold with customer service, a checkout with a long line, or a hot car in a traffic jam… waiting is not on most people’s top ten list of things to do.

Sometimes you should order takeout…
Ever have nights, where despite your best attempts, dinner is announced by the smoke alarm? Pizza is a meal that is made in mass quantity in our house.

Household life and balance…?
Balance? I'm not sure that gets achieved daily in my world, but maybe over the long run. Each day is a new adventure as school is out and both Tim and I are in the house together all day. Finding new rhythm to each getting our own work done - job hunting and design respectfully, … Continue reading Household life and balance…?
More silly moments.
Upon this day my ability to make one more decision was limited... especially when I had not yet had a thought about lunch and Uriah was already standing at the refrigerator begging for food. So, I did what any great Mom would do - I let him decide what was going to be on the … Continue reading More silly moments.
Where did 4 weeks go?

This realization summed up my weekend and then as I start this post and I see how long it has been since I updated... … Continue reading Where did 4 weeks go?
Organizing… the basement?
Oh dear! How can one thought of organizing the basement lead to nearly every room in the house... In July, I had my dad help me re-arrange our speakers so that the cabinets would be freed to use in our master bedroom. The Living Room is now not quite as heavy looking, and I can now … Continue reading Organizing… the basement?
The Mixer.
Uriah was crying and dragging me to the kitchen. But every snack option choice and even the question "Are you hungry?" was met with an emphatic shake of the head no while the crying continued. What on earth could Uriah want in the kitchen? He was so frustrated he could not find any words to … Continue reading The Mixer.
