Bj was a little confused when I told him this diaper bag was for us: A girl's gotta have options! The pattern is Amy Butler's Nappy Bag and I love it! It is huge, yes, but it holds lots. An added bonus is using up my plethora of Hawaiian fabric I got the day Bj …

I wouldn’t bet my life on it
A couple weeks ago Bj asked if while I was out I could pick up some custom spray paint to match our walls to paint the utility box cover. I was like, "um, they don't make custom spray paint." "Oh they don't," he said. "Ya, I'd bet my life on it." Well turns out they …
The sincerest form of flattery
I think everyone saw this coming except Bj: oh no mom you didn't! I know I'm just a big copy cat. But one who now has really nice pillows on her couch.
You win some, you loose some
Winning: Sleepy time in the toddler seat. That's right after 6.5 months in the bassinet I finally caved and put the toddler seat on the stroller. It's still a little big, as you can see my little worm managed to get her arm out while walking. But the sunshade is much better, and I can …
Happy Day
It’s a sun shiney day here. Kisses from Tuesday!

I used to get together with my little sister, Emilie, once a week – until I had Tuesday. It was too hard for me to get to Emilie's school on time and pick her up with a not so fond of the car baby in the backseat. Plus I never knew what Tuesday would be …
Why did this take me so long to figure out?

All new sleep methods
Bj and I have been having fun putting Tuesday to sleep lately. You read that correctly, FUN. We’ve instituted family quiet time up in her room before bed and she loves it. I love it. Bj loves it. We play with little bells, a xylophone, and other favorite toys. We also read her at least …
not lettuce
Bj made delicious panini for dinner last night. I wanted to tell him job well done: Me: "Bj these are so good, I would have never thought to put cabbage on here." Bj: "I didn't use cabbage this is your organic lettuce." Me: "I'm pretty sure this is cabbage." Bj takes a bite, "Well where …
