Take 2

Back in August, I got super sick of looking at my mis-matched nursery furniture.  Remember that?  (You can read all about it here).  I tackled the rocking chair and the changing table in a week, painting them both a creamy white. Not only did it allow the beautiful crib to really shine, but it also unified […]

Happy 27th Baby-cakes!

Yesterday was Chris's birthday.  He is now 27.  Which is a really big deal because 27 is one of my favorite numbers (I also love 19) and Chris is HANDS DOWN my favorite guy.  I can already tell this is going to be a great year!  Last night, before falling asleep I asked Chris what […]

Tinker Bell

Today when we checked the mail, Greta had a package!  She was so excited. As soon as we got inside, Chris helped her open it.  There was a whole bunch of new clothes from Grandma and Grandpa Marcum.  Of course Greta wanted to put on some right away.  We were so close to bath time, […]

Plaid Jacket

Greta has changed so much this week.  She will use anything to stand up.  A wall, a box, our bed, the dishwasher, her crib.  She just wants to stand at all times.  My favorite is when she crawls over to me and starts climbing up my legs until she is standing. And then she is […]

Part-time Job

I have been looking for a part-time job.  I just want something that will give me enough income that I can go out and buy a couple gallons of paint, or a shelf, or decor at IKEA without touching out budget.  Ya know, fixer-upper moolah.  The whole process has been a headache and now has […]

Almost here.

Those bottom two teeth that you can barely see, have been a looonnngg time coming.  Long nights with no sleep.  Long days with minimal to no naps.  Long hours of chewing on frozen bananas, and peaches and apple juice ice cubes.  I can't wait for them to be all the way in and to start […]

Date Night

Growing up, I felt like nothing made my dad happier than going to Home Depot.  Sometimes my mom would compromise, they would spend some time at Kohls and then head over to Home Depot for bonus fun.  I never really understood what was so great about going there...until now.  Chris and I spent over an […]

RIP Sectional

The guy was picking up the couch late last night.  Chris was seriously pouting.  Maybe even some tears.  So I tried to cheer him up.  And then we both just started pouting. (My pout is lacking) And then it was time. Gone forever. And, suddenly, I was smiling again. s h o p p i […]

Teether

You might wanna steer clear until her pearly whites finish making their debut. Case in point.

Remedy

Today is the first day since this whole thing began that Greta woke up with no drooping on either side.  I feel relieved that maybe we have gotten past this.  I was still up with her a lot last night due to two little teeth coming in on the bottom.  I am going to miss […]

Swapped

It was a long weekend with very little sleep.  Greta was not herself.  She screamed and cried and I felt so sad for her (to the point of crying myself) and Chris and I both felt very tired.  It all climaxed Saturday night where she slept less than 4 hours.  Sunday, we all stayed in […]

Pray for our little girl

This morning when Greta woke up, her left eye looked a little droopy.  I immediately called her doctor and they wanted to see her right away.  She was still being her smiley self, but by the time we got to the doctor, her smile was pretty lop-sided.  My heart was breaking.  The first doctor she […]

7 months

I can't believe Greta is 7 months old.  I can't believe she is ONLY 7 months old (sometimes--especially right now).  We took a trip to Rexburg this past weekend to see my not-so-little nephew, Kole, be blessed.  On the way, Chris and I talked a lot about how far we have come since last year.  […]

Curly Girly

You know that curl or tuft of hair that often appears on top of a cartoon baby's head? Greta's got it...and we LOVE it!

Our shopping spree, brought to you by...you.

Once, when I was about 13 years old, I called into a radio station to see who sang a song I had heard.   The guy immediately congratulated me for being caller number 10, told me that my Samantha Mumba cd and a t-shirt was in the mail and hung up just as quickly.  It was the […]

The Last day of Summer

It felt like time rewinded itself last night.  If I didn't get Chris John Mayer concert tickets for Father's Day, I would have almost believed that we were still dating.  Almost.  All day I worried about leaving Greta.  At the last minute we decided to bathe her and do her whole nighttime routine an hour […]

Letting go.

It's lunchtime.  I always feed Greta 4 oz of baby food for lunch.  2 oz of fruit and 2 oz of vegetables.  Once that is out of the way, the fun begins.  I toast some bread and break it up for her and slice some peaches and spread them out over her tray.  This will […]
