Where (did) the owah baby go??

About a month or so ago, my mom went through some of my old toys/dolls, and found my two favorite dolls. I definitely have many memories involving these guys, and now I get to enjoy watching Laina make memories with them. You won’t often catch her with just one in […]

Road twip to Hatteras

Looking back, I now realize how excited Laina was to go to the beach this year. We told her 3 days before we were leaving that we were going to the beach with our family, and she continuously talked about the beach…she would say: going to beach, digging in da […]

21 months

Well, this is a little late, but blogging has been put on the back burner a bit since this whole house hunting business started. Laina has been very patient with us over the past few months as we have been taking many more quick trips in the car to look […]

Fairlington

So…I think I am mourning Fairlington already, and we haven’t even left. Sam and I love this neighbordhood, and since we’ve been house hunting lately, we have been really trying to appreciate all that this neighborhood has to offer while we are still here. A few times during the week, […]

Eatin my veggies

The other night we threw together a random meal consisting of spaghetti squash with marinara sauce, corn on the cob, and roasted asparagus, zucchini, and squash. Sam and I both got a kick out of Laina scarfing down her veggies. She is pretty open-minded about food (knock on wood!)–but there […]

The Big 3-0

How could I even begin to complain about turning 30 when I got to spend a few days with two of my closest friends at the Northern Neck, and spend the day roaming around and having a picnic in DC with my family?!               […]

The Farmhouse !

Last week, Nicole, Katy and I headed down to the Murphy’s farmhouse for a few days with all of our girls. Mrs. Murphy was brave enough to join us, too =). It was such a treat–the farmhouse sits on 5 acres of gorgeous land in a very quiet spot on […]

Laina language

There are many words that Laina says just about the way you or I would say them, but others that she says in her own little way. Some of my favorites are: Oatmoy – OatmealWacaroni – MacaroniYogun – LoganDawcy – DarcyGimmie – GrammySawbee – StrawberryGeepes – GrapesSeem- Swing Some of […]

Kissy face

Most nights, Laina is pretty liberal with giving us kisses before she goes to bed. Tonight however, I’d say she was especially generous. She gave me a kiss on the lips just before Sam was about to take her upstairs to bed, but this time she requested more kisses. “Cheek,” […]

Daddy doing??

Well…it’s definitely been a while since we last posted. Life has been a bit more hectic the last few weeks, but we are back! Right, sweetie? Anyway, this will be a quick one because I’m finding myself exhausted yet again. This is in part due to the dinner out with […]
