While FUBALLLLLL is still firmly implanted in the kid’s brain as a worthy activity, a new one followed as an even longer lasting obsession.
Elizabeth and her boyfriend Dave took H to the Children’s Museum where they discovered his apparent talent and love of every parents worst nightmare.
Apparently he stayed and played the drums for over [...]
I’m not counting calories this holiday season - although, since I left my skates at home and have no plans to engage in any sweat-inducing activities for the next three weeks, I should be. So, this post from Livemom.com made me feel way better. Also - I just wanted to get that photo of me [...]
It’s snowing! Just a teensy, tiny, little bit. But, still it is snow. And it’s freaking cold!
So, Marc made these for us. And they are lovely! Thank you husband and Smitten Kitchen!

We had a lovely, lovely turkey day with Finn’s family. Absolutely one of the best t-day meals I have ever had. Thank you to you all for letting us crash.
There was football on upstairs and while we were waiting for dinner H and I crawled up to take a peek. We were maybe in front [...]

She is headed back to Dallas and we are incredibly sad to have to let her go. She has helped us raise Harrison and Finn for over a year.
We feel incredibly lucky to have had her for as long as we have and she will [...]
A couple Fridays ago it was my birthday. All I ever really want for my birthday is a nice dinner - a good bottle of wine, some kind of well-prepared fish or meat served with a delicious vegetable.

And sausage on a stick.
And beer. And a paper hat.
A ride on the Ferris [...]
Back in the ’80’s at The Golden Skate?
No - everybody has been to at least one roller skating birthday party in their lifetime. No… it probably begins with my first pair of Roller Blades. I know just how dorky my husband thinks they are, so, we will spare him the embarrassment and skip over the [...]
Halloween started off harmless enough. I quick trip to Etsy to find some kind of costume - because there is no way in H-E-double-hockey-sticks that I am ready to start MAKING HALLOWEEN COSTUMES like you crazy I mean, craftily-inclined people out there (and that includes you mom)!
Charlie Brown t-shirt - check. Shorts - check. Socks [...]
HELP!
Aliens have broken in to our home and stolen all of the adult brains from the premises.
At least, that is the only rational explanation I can come up with for what transpired over the weekend.

Marc and I returned to Austin last week and decided simultaneously that our living room (which for the past year has [...]
HERE. And HERE. And HERE too (oops - photos from March that were never uploaded! Back when he only had 2 TEETH!).
Photo update includes this little gem of the kid attempting to share my burger:
