I'M AN AUNT! WE'VE GOT A FIRST TIMER HERE!!!
The labor and delivery floor makes you warm and fuzzy in the inside. I’m pretty sure the same chemicals released after having an orgasm are released when one steps into the labor and delivery floor of a hospital. It could possibly just be me. My baby sis finally had her little Sophia Lennon yesterday morning at 10:51 am. She weighed in at 7lbs, 14 oz and 21.5 inches long. Not to toot my...

poopsmith song →
When jolie goes to the library she usually picks out a c.d. or two to borrow. I’ll tell ya’, some kid’s music is not half bad. On one visit we happened to get a compilation of different artists- folksy mostly. This song was monotone and not very upbeat, so I thought jolie would hate it. I stand corrected.

ashley has dove in head first to house hunting, and although she seems frantic and anxious (and slightly overwhelmed), her labeled and organized house binder is anything but. we may share identical ocd organizing genes. like pete yorn says, “everything in it’s right place.”
my lil’ sis is about to...
more like the "voices" of color
too many options make the process more difficult than it needs to be. but this book is pretty nifty. the colors are endless.
Color Inspiration
Neither of the houses below belong to me. Our house is about half the size of the mansion. I just really like the color palette. The first set of colors we chose are completely different from these, but Brett wasn’t really digging the darker taupes so we went back for another stab after our beach getaway. I think the warm yellow and crisp cream will look nice for all seasons. My favorite...
for real?
the hubby and i are meeting with a new and (fingers crossed) improved painter tomorrow. after the first paint company, that held our money for ransom, fell through, a great surge of defeat plagued our spirits. then we went to florida for a week and that pretty much rejuvenated us both. we came back refreshed and ready to tackle our old home and its pathetic, peeling exterior. the new painter is...
