Sweet and Simple

It just hit me today that Grayson’s birthday is next month. What? How in the world can I have an almost 1 year old? Of course, turning one is a huge milestone and needs to be celebrated, which means…birthday party time! If I’m being honest, thinking about planning his birthday party is really stressing me…

Stuff I'm Thinking About Tonight

No real news or interesting topic to blog on, so I just wrote down what came to my mind tonight…. I am increasingly bored and annoyed with television. Maybe it’s the noise- I am in love with the silent moments of my day. I rarely turn the TV on during the day and if Ryan…

Sunday FAIL

Oh my, this is one of those days I am really glad Grayson goes to bed ridiculously early. It hasn’t been a horrible day at all, just kind of off.  We spent the night at my parents’ last night after swimming because G was cranky and not willing to stay up while we ate dinner…

Traveling

If I’m being totally honest, traveling isn’t my favorite thing to do. At all. I like the “being there” part of traveling- the visiting with friends and relatives, the seeing and doing exciting things, but I loathe the logistics of traveling: packing, airport security, sleeping in a bed other than my own, etc. And traveling…
