My First Home

On our way to Philadelphia we drove by my first house in Norristown, PA...yes this is the very townhouse Mom and Dad brought me home to once I was brought into this world.  And then we moved to Houston Texas.

Eternal Landscapes

 

 

Very proud of my brother Jason and his amazing business he has going for him. He was invited to have a little bit of his work displayed at the Philadelphia Home Show over the weekend. We all went up to see it...the kids even loved to smell the flowers!

An Old Favorite

This sweater was a gift from my friend Chelsea at a baby shower for Henry.  It's still in perfect condition and one of my very favorites to put on the kids.  Of course it only gets cuter with the hairbow!  YES! She's finally letting me put them in :)

Sick Day

Isn't is just grand when Mommy is sick? I still have to get up and get things dones - the house won't take care of itself, the kids won't take care of themselves, and I have lots of work to catch up on for myself.  I think Moms really do deserve sick days. Sadly, we don't get them and we just keep on being everything to everyone. If you know of a mom sub or a boss I can call into let me know!

Wi Partners

President Day ~ day off for the kiddos.

We had a couple friends over for the morning. Henry showed Sebastian how to play Toy Story 3 on Wi.

Now I'm praying that tonight's snow storm ends soon enough that we don't have the kids home AGAIN tomorrow!

Day with Dad

I spent the day in NYC with my mother doing a little TMS buying. When I arrived home I was impressed to see every game, toy, craft...you name it item in the playroom on the floor. I thought for sure Matt must have been either in the shower upstairs or outside doing something. After browsing the camera I now see that he was looking through the camera and capturing our two monkees while they were doing their destruction.

Beautiful Day

(slideshow)

Yesterday was indeed another perfect day in mid February...what a tease! We are now expecting snow on Tuesday. We spent the day with good friends, a walk into her town to get lunch, a stop on the way back at the playground, and home for a nap (bmb) while Henry and I played outside. If only it could've happened over the weekend so we could have enjoyed some of it with Dad :(

Flashback Friday

Preakness 2005 or maybe 2006?

Green Smoothie

This is how we get lots of GOOD into the kids....Kale smoothies.
1 can lite coconut milk
2 leaves of kale
1/2 cup pineapple
1/2 cup second fruit or ice
(sometimes a banana and strawberries)
protein powder
water to get the right consistency.

they ask for seconds!

A Spring Tease

Yes it may be another 32 days until spring but this week has been fantastic! Lots of sunshine + temps in the 60s = kids outside.

Valentine's Day

This morning we woke up to a perfect pink sky. Without Dad we had a special pink and red breakfast before Henry headed off to school with his 42 valentine's and homemade heart cookies that read 'be mine .. henry b'. Henry was a little concerned that he would turn pink like the story pinkalicious. Kids are napping before we have our Valentine's Day dinner and tea with cupcakes this evening. More to follow...
