Daddy time for Caroline

AND he made dinner!

Let's count how many things in this picture he is NOT supposed to touch. 1, 2, 3, 4, OH OH OH ALL OF THEM.

I made a tutu or two to trade for photo shoots. Yah for bartering.

Someone stole his sister's blanket for some couch cuddling time.

SNOWPOCOLYPSE DAY. Those are our 15 foot arborvitaes bent clear to the ground with the weight of it.

This is your family room floor. This is your family room floor during an untreated kidney infection. Any questions?

I think he's making it work.

What, don't you let your toddler play with circulars saws? Seems like fun!

Totally unedited shot out my bedroom window this morning.

BEST TARGET FIND EVER. They were on sale for $1. I also bought myself a cherry one.

Nursing this baby puts her right to sleep almost every time. I don't even mind being trapped under her...

...because it means I have lots of time for knitting.

Mom and I took Little Evan to the aquarium (I wore Caroline in the Maya sling)

I like the fish a lot more than my kid, but since the place was almost deserted he just ran around burning off energy.

Although his FAVORITE exhibit at the aquarium is...the drinking fountain. EPIC tantrum when I pulled him away.

Waiting for the doctor at Caroline's 2 week check up. She's up to 8 lbs 15 oz & doing GREAT.

My new camera lens!! I love it - it's making me excited to learn more about my camera.

My mom organzied our panty. I took a picture because it's never going to look this good again.

Family time!

BEBEH SOCKS!

Toddlers Gone Wild

My parents took all four of us to dinner (Chili's!) without incident. Thank God for toddler-sized cups of lemonade.

Someone's pants are too big, which means he can take them off on his own.

I made impromptu brownies, which means I didn't have the right kind of chocolate. They were still delicious.

We woke up to a winter wonderland!! Later that day, E bought a gigantic snowblower.

Probably the last time he ever stares longingly out at the snow, since our sledding adventure ended with one very cold very wet very unhappy child.

My Keurig makes sweet tea. Did you just die of jealousy?

First real snow of the winter! It was miserable - really cold with a wicked wind. We hid in the house for days.

Milk drunk baby

Bebeh's first hair clip - sent by my internet friend Kim from Try It Mom!

Yes my 1 week old IS wear Juicy Couture. My mom bought it at TJMaxx. It's meant to be ironic.

Chair ON the couch. He's thinks he's the freaking king or something - no one may sit with their head higher than Little Evan or face the wrath of an angry toddler.

Working on arranging frames around my awesome Modern Bird piece. I don't think this layout works exactly right so they're not on the wall yet.

Hello Lover. My Christmas present to myself, thanks to a gift card from my uncle that covered most of the price. It is AMAZING.

Thumb print cookies I whipped up in practically SECONDS because the mixer is THAT AWESOME. I can't believe I've used the same crappy Hamilton Beach mixer since college and NO ONE told me how much it sucked.

Traditional New Year's dinner: chinese food, shared with E, Mom & my BFF Erin who came down to visit

Twitter & champagne - official celebration of mommy bloggers everywhere!

This is my view for at least 5 or 6 hours a day. I don't mind at all.

We started to de-Christmas the house, but got bored and left it like this. Hey, at least the fire hazard - I mean tree - is down and out by the curb.

There was a LOT of this on Saturday. It's hard on everyone because he doesn't have enough words to tell us WHY he's so upset and we don't have an extra set of ear drums for when he pops ours with THE SCREAMING.

To try and avoid THE SCREAMING we took Little Evan to the still snowy-but-temps-in-the-upper-40's park. It was a mild success. Until he fell off the fire truck and we tried to help him. Or when we told him he had to go home. Sigh. Wasn't this not supposed to start until he was 2?
