New birthday rain boots. She wears them all day long.   I'm going to post a photo a day for the next week. Comments are turned off. Enjoy your week!

Growing up, Sundays were always the day that we made yummy treats. It was usually no-bake cookies or some kind of cake. I'm finding that it's turning into my favorite time to bake; everyone is home, together and relaxed. It's comfort food. Especially when it's made with peanut butter.  I have a peanut butter &…

 I had forgotten how fun and exciting it is when you start feeding little ones food for the first time. They just don't quite know what to do with it and most of the time, it ends up all over them. Henry never ate baby food/pureed anything and so we never used bibs, so this…

I'm coming off of a major sugar-high. Major. I may not make it through this post. We bought our first ever bona-fide bbq/grill this weekend so we decided to have a bbq with friends and cakes to celebrate Henry & Kate's birthday. I never had a chance to make birthday cakes for them (which I…

 The owl clip art for the invitation was purchased from this etsy shop.  I was so honored to throw a baby shower for my good friend Rachel on Wednesday. She has been such a dear friend to me since we moved here 5 years ago and I was thrilled to be able to do this…

 We call him Charlie Bear or Charlie Bug. Mostly we just say "Charlie" with an extremely overexagerated Boston accent which sounds a bit like Chhhahlie. You know there is that mad fisherman from Boston. It's Charlie Moore T.V. (don't watch the whole clip- you only need to watch the first 20 seconds to see where…

I've been working on Henry's birthday movie since before his birthday and  finally had some time to finish it up this evening (You can't have a video for one and not the other…you know what I mean.) Henry turned the big "5" last Thursday. His birthday was such a fun one. He wanted…

Nathaniel Hansen is a good, good friend of ours. We became friends in Boston about 10 years ago and have been friends ever since. He is an extremely talented filmmaker. He has been featured on Kickstarter (on their homepage no less!) and is trying to raise money for his latest project, "The Elders." You can…

She is spunky and hilarious, dramatic and sweet. She is saying lots of words and is her brother's shadow. She is a sweetie pie and we are over the moon for her. We have been in Utah for the last few days- this time for a wedding…

 We spent the afternoon at Santa Monica Beach. Henry thought it would be really funny to run around (in extremely windy conditions) with our beach umbrella.  Did I mention it was really windy?  As in our umbrella kept flipping the wrong way? But that was the funniest part to him (and us and his lack…
