I thought I would get sick sooner in the school year, but here we are, my first cold of the fall. And I didn’t even catch it from Freya, I’m pretty sure it was Audrey’s snotty little face. Good thing she’s so freakin adorable. Anyway it’s hit with full force today. Stuffy and sleepy oh […]

baby fat
Posted in Audrey, Freya, Milestones, tagged bath, teething, tmi on April 14, 2013 | Comments Off on baby fat
Audrey is so very plump. Perhaps at the peak of her plumpness, her arms and legs wrapped in deep, soft rolls and creases. She gorges herself on milk and burns very few calories doing her hitched crawl around the room. I observed that the second front incisor has now worked its way through the gum, […]
the teething
Posted in Audrey, tagged dreams on April 7, 2013 | Comments Off on the teething
Audrey has cut one top incisor and one bottom incisor. It mustn’t feel very good because she has been complaining quite a lot in her sleep and can only be consoled by the boob, meaning much sleeplessness for me. A night full of broken sleep for me also means a night full of bizarre dreams. […]

This weekend I finished a couple of cleaning projects that have been on my list for a while: tidy and organize the downstairs closet, and swap out winter coats/shoes/scarves/hats for spring ones. The closet was a mess, had gotten to the point where we were just opening the door and throwing things inside. I basically […]
tough time

Both girls are sick, coughing, runny noses, and little baby had a fever all night. I put a humidifier in Freya’s room in the hopes it might help her chest. She complicated things last night by goofing around on her bed and slamming the back of her head into the nightstand. Audrey was restless all […]
what we did today

I got up before seven as I usually do, and drank my hot coffee while catching up on Community and Parks & Rec on the Tivo. Let Freya sleep in. Then we all ate breakfast together, dressed, and Freya and I went together to Bainbridge Island while Brian stayed home with the baby. We drove […]
walking
Posted in Audrey, Health and Fitness, tagged outside on February 19, 2013 | Comments Off on walking
In December, I became determined to get back into walking for exercise. But the weather was of course horrid for the most part, so I thought I’d take up the American sport of mall walking. We have a moderately sized indoor shopping mall in Kitsap, only a few minutes drive from Freya’s preschool. I dropped […]
Trying something new here. Maybe I miss having a job? Maybe I miss purpose, routine, things like that. I know I miss a paycheck. But yes, staying home to raise my babies IS worth it. Anyway, in an effort to combat stasis, I will be blogging twice weekly and treating it like a job. Tuesdays […]
