I can’t believe our Amalia Marie is THREE years old already! She is growing up so fast. She weighed 23 pounds at her doctors visit the other day. I think her little sister will soon surpass her. She wears 18-24 month clothes mostly, but has a few 2t things. Amalia is all potty trained and […]
It is crazy to me that my baby girl is two already! At her last appointment, she surprised us, weighing in at 19.9 lbs and right around 30 inches. She wears 18 month tops and 12-18 dresses, though her closet still has some 12 month tops. She can wear a variety of sizes in shorts. […]
Sylas had his first day of preschool on August 17th. I may have cried after dropping him off. I can’t believe my baby is old enough to go to school! He wanted me to stay with him. I reassured him that he would be having lots of fun while I was away. He got slightly […]
The whole weekend was sunny and absolutely beautiful. Mid 70’s and perfect for anything outdoors. My entire futurecast on my phone tells me that it will be this way for a while, so I decided to drag my family out to the greenhouse and buy some plants for my pots. As I was sitting on […]
Sorry I have been away for a few weeks. Things have been picking up at work lately and my home life has not let me do much writing. I started my own business with LuLaRoe last week and its been kind of busy with that too and I don’t even have my inventory yet! it […]
My baby is two and a half! I can’t believe it has gone so fast! This post, and other posts like it, are mostly for my own benefit, so that I can look back on them and read about what Sylas was like when he was little. Since we don’t have a 2.5 year checkup, […]
Sylas is showing very faint signs of interest in the potty but when I ask if he would like to use the big boy potty he replies with “No, no,” and walks away. I’m trying not to push him too hard for fear of making him dislike it to the point of never wanting to […]
I was planning on having a nice, uneventful weekend at home just to catch up on some things. Saturday was a pretty good day; I did the laundry, made lunch, cleaned up the house and paid some bills. Saturday evening, however, was a different story. I fixed Sylas dinner and afterwards, I put on Mickey […]
My baby is TWO! I can’t believe it has gone so fast! This post, and other posts like it, are mostly for my own benefit, so that I can look back on them and read about what Sylas was like when he was little. At Sylas’ two year well child checkup, he measured 31 inches […]
Being Sylas’ mommy has taught me so much about love, patience and adventure. Everyone tells you how fast they grow up, and its so true. But there are many things that I have had to figure out all on my own by trial and error and sometimes I feel like its sheer luck that we […]
