You can probably tell by a quick glance at my blog that I am into photography. I love it. Despite the fact that I am a scientist in my career, I am a very artistic person – well rounded, I’ve been told. I have enjoyed taking photos for a very long time. In my youth, […]
I know that grocery hauls are a popular thing. I enjoy watching them, getting dinner ideas and just seeing what other brands are out there for healthier or cheaper options. So I wanted to share with you an Aldi grocery haul. We were needing some dinners for the coming week so we ran to the […]
Lots of “exciting” things going on at our house lately. Sylas is having a good time at school. He is learning to read color words right now and so far they know how to read and write red. They also go over the alphabet a couple letters at a time to freshen up since preschool. […]
Tonight while laying with sylas as I’m trying to get him to sleep, as part of our nightly ritual after dinner, bath and story books, I let him talk about whatever comes to his mind. Tonight, the topic of discussion was his future house plans. “Mom, maybe someday when I’m as tall as you, I […]
Sylas had his first day of Kindergarten this week. This momma had a hard time letting him go. I woke up early to make his lunch, which I was kind-of excited to do. I soaked it in while it lasted because I knew that soon enough I wouldn’t be enjoying it so much as it […]

I realized the other day that it had been a month since I’ve been on here. We haven’t been too busy at home, but then again, its pretty busy when you’re raising three children. Its been a pretty steady month of the same old same old. Work, get home and start the dinner bath and […]
The past several weeks – maybe more like a month – have been full of busy schedules for all of us. The end of Sylas’ first year of school, wedding planning and my family visiting along with just enjoying the beginnings of our summer. On Sylas’ last day of school the kids went to the […]
Yesterday could not have been a better day. It was gorgeous outside. I had the back door propped open all morning with the front windows open, the air just flowing through the whole house. Amalia woke up early, at 6, so I decided to take her on my early morning grocery run. I like to […]
I noticed that I hadn’t written in nearly a month a couple days ago and put it on my to-do list. I don’t really know what to write about other than mundane life happenstances, because, well, life is pretty boring at the moment. Currently, we are all sick with a pair – yes, two – […]
