(Click here for larger image)
As I’m sure many of you know, we moved into an apartment last June with the plan to sell our existing home, find a good piece of land, and build ourselves a house. It took a little longer to get started than we’d hoped, but we finally got our hole dug [...]

28 weeks

February 18th, 2010 · 9 Comments · a day in the life, family

For those of you that may not already know, we found out in November that I am pregnant again. I called and setup an appointment for early December and it was then that I found out that I was already nearly 18 weeks along…
Yes, it was a bit of a surprise. (The good kind of [...]

November

January 24th, 2010 · 4 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, family, food, siblings, spencer, tina

The highlights from November include Bridget’s 4th birthday and Thanksgiving.
For months, Dave had been teasing Bridget that we would be skipping her birthday and that she would have to stay 3 years old for another year. Her reactions varied from day to day. Either she knew he was kidding, or she was sincerely devastated. The [...]

October

January 18th, 2010 · 5 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, family, random, spencer, tina

In the spirit of catching up…
This past October (2009) we decided, nearly on a whim, to pack up and take a trip to California/Disneyland.
Disneyland is always a fun place, and it seemed like good timing where we were out from under our mortgage payment, and hadn’t starting building the house yet.
We went the week before [...]

Once upon a blog…

January 18th, 2010 · 2 Comments · a day in the life, random

You know, there was a time on this blog where I wrote something (anything) every single day - or at least most every day. Those days seem to be a thing of the past, and though I miss having new content on my blog daily, I find that I lack the motivation to actually put [...]

Do you know what we did this summer?

November 7th, 2009 · 9 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, domestic attempts, family, high school, random, siblings, spencer, tina

Its no secret that I am further behind on my blogging than I have ever been before. The thought of catching up one post at a time was quite daunting, and just pretending like the last several months never happened (and not blogging about them at all) didn’t seem right either.
So, I went through my [...]

Smurfettes

August 3rd, 2009 · 3 Comments · a day in the life, bridget

We ended a hard day of playing at the apartment last week with Bridget and her friend, Katie, drawing on the sidewalk with chalk… at least it started with the sidewalk. Before too long, both girls were a lovely shade of smurf blue.
I’m pretty sure that the blue wasn’t completely accidental either… I occasionally caught [...]
