dream home

i have been seeing a lot of these lately...remodeled into a sweet, quaint, little camper. how amazing would it be to travel the country in such a beauty? our neighbor remodeled a more traditional 80's style camper once. they spent weeks painting, reupholstering, and re-running the wires. i think they planned on traveling the world in it. the only thing was, it would barely even run across town. back to work i go! happy tuesday!!

thoughts for today


i woke up with the snuffles this morning. somehow i actually have made it all winter without coming down with any kind of sickness. i have been obsessing with washing my hands constantly to keep any germs of any kind away from my little lady. really, i think becoming a mom has made me sort of germaphobic. soon, i'll be one of those moms with caution signs on the back of their children that read 'wash hands before touching'. haha. hope you are having a lovely day!

sweet love

i find this print quite adorable. i mean, bicycles and robots?! love it.

meet erwin


this is erwin. the poor guy has been cooped up all winter. thankfully, he got to see a little action this weekend. the snow around here is melting fast and the hubby and i took advantage of the beautiful weather to take a quick spin around our little town. it was really kind of a surreal day...the temperature was about 60, but there was still plenty of snow on the ground. the neighborhoods were alive with people enjoying the sunshine, children were tromping around in the slush, snowmen were melting away, and snow forts were on every corner.
happy monday, all! oh yes, and happy valentines day! love love!!

the most important meal of the day











there has been a lot of food talk lately. whether it comes with the new year, new seasons, or new lifestyles, re-thinking what you eat seems like a good idea. our little family loves eating a good breakfast. it seems starting out our day together on the right track makes all the difference. these are some of our most favorites of the moment! 1. cinnamon roll and coffee at amanda's cafe 2. oatmeal w/ bananas, cinnamon, and almonds 3. cranberry almond bread 4. short stack

a birthday blog


hello hello. i recently celebrated my (gulp) 27th birthday. it was a lovely day. i finished painting the trim in our bedroom (!), went thrift shopping, tried to make a snowman (but the snow was still too dry), ate pumpkin cupcakes, and the husband made sushi rolls and edamame. i have been wanting to make a 27 before 28 list for a while now. that is a lot to accomplish! but, i do have 365 days to do it. here's to another year older, another year wiser, and another year of living life as best i can...

little lady love












sweet baby E is 5 months old! this girl is seriously just a sweetheart. this month she has started trying out some real foods (other than momma milk). so far, she has tried rice cereal, banana, avocado, and sweet potato. she loves every bit of it! miss E can sit up for short periods, but is still quite weeble-wobbley. the girl loves to roll around, but she would really rather stand up. bath time is still quite the favorite and she just babbles on and on to anyone who will listen.
recently, i noticed how curious she is. she will just watch us so intently, soaking it all up. i just love this little lady and couldn't imagine life without her.
