Car Crash

Don't let the title scare you: Mom got 45 minutes of total silence

(Oct. 2, 2014)

Killer Kiss

Out of no where, like a ninja, Georgia attacks her prey. 

(Oct. 1, 2014)

Swingtown

First it was her turn. Then it was my turn. Then we combined efforts. 

(Sept. 20, 2014)

Rings of Fun

I think I am getting the hang of these things. 

(Sept. 29, 2014)

Bear Down

We are ready for some Chicago Bears football. 

(Sept. 28, 2014)

Sunset Cruise

I can't think of anything more fun than a sunset cruise on the Potomac. 

(Sept. 27, 2014)

Fun Friday

Nothing like a some random fun on a Friday. 

(Sept. 26, 2014)

Good Morning, Sunshine

But then morning comes and it's like nothing ever happened. 

(Sept. 25, 2014)

When The Lights Go Down

All Georgia wants to do sometimes is poke and pester me. 

(Sept. 24, 2014)

Comedy and Tragedy

This isn't my first smile but it is the first one we could capture on tape. And Georgia, well, this isn't her first meltdown. 

(Sept. 23, 2014) 

Handpuppets

There is a story in here somewhere Georgia is trying to tell me. 

(Sept. 22, 2014)

Chatterbox

I can't understand what she is saying, but Georgia is always chattering about something. I just sit politely and listen. 

(Sept. 21, 2014)

Party in the Park

We celebrated Samuel's 2nd birthday by having a party in the park. Happy Birthday!

(Sept. 20, 2014)

Toddler Bed

In just a few short months this bed will be all mine. But in the meantime, we took down the railing so Georgia could get in and out by herself. 

(Sept. 19, 2014)

Where the Kids Are

It is after 10 p.m. On a school night. Do you know where your kids are?

(Sept. 18, 2014)

Commuter Alert

I am still confined to my car seat, but sometimes Georgia catches a ride with Dad. 

(Sept. 17, 2014)

Wagon Ride

My Big Sister is getting pretty good at holding on to me. But we aren't quite ready for a full-fledged ride just yet.

Manic Monday Morning

What a great way to start the week. 

 (Sept. 15, 2014)

First Mates

We are taking careful notes about boat safety from Dad so one day we can commandeer this ride. 

(Sept. 14, 2014) 

Quiet Reflection

It is hard to sit in quiet reflection sometimes when Georgia and Auntie Sally are having blast with the letters in the kitchen.  

(Sept. 13, 2014)

U-haul, I Sleep

Someone needs to manage this outfit. And I am up for the task. After my nap. 

(Sept. 12, 2014)

Peaches and Cream

Peach season is almost over. I am sad I only get the cream. 

(Sept. 11, 2014)

Hair Raising Antics

Georgia is always futzing with something. This time it is the container for her hair clips.

(Sept. 10, 2014)

Freehanding It

I am not sure how much of my dinner ended up in my mouth or on the sofa. 

(Sept. 9, 2014)

Sisterly Storytime

As a storytime pro, my Big Sister wanted to share one of her favorites with me. 

(Sept. 8, 2014)

Duck, Duck, Close Up

When Georgia heads out for a swim she likes to tell all the ducks 'hello.' Soon enough I'll get a close up with the ducks.
(Sept. 7, 2014)

Highs and Hugs

It makes me a little nervous watching Georgia climb so high. But nothing beats getting a hug when she come back to Earth. 

(Sept. 6, 2014)

In a Flash

Just like that, we can turn on a dime. Before the flash of a the camera I was cooing and smiling and Georgia was melting down. I know they will catch us in the act. Someday.

(Sept. 5, 2014)

Helping Hand

I get by with a little help from Georgia. 

(Sept. 4, 2014)

Practice Run

As Mom was wiping her tears and Georgia filled her backpack, I was looking forward to a little freedom as Georgia headed off to preschool. Well...not so fast. What do you mean she has to be two and can't start until her birthday? You mean she can't start for another 8 weeks?!?

(Sept. 3, 2014) 

The 24 Hour Gap

Well it was bound to happen: we can't find the footage. Like the missing 18 1/2 minutes of the Nixon tapes, the photos for today can't be found. Maybe they were confiscated as evidence. Or maybe they are being held for ransom. Maybe they will show up in the future. Or, maybe, they are lost forever. We'll update as the story develops. Now back to our regularly scheduled blogging.

Birthday Improvements

What is the best way to celebrate Mom's birthday? Go shopping at Lowes.

By Raft

I like to get in the water but sometimes it is best if I just stay on dry land.
