Merry Homemade Christmas

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

Last year we went a little overboard with presents for Izzy for Christmas. Fortunately, she really like all the giant, blinking, singing plastic monstrosities we bought her and she’s still plays with them to this day. They’re not even that annoying, except maybe for Animal Train. That toy is kind of evil. It is also [...]

I’ll never make it as a Top Chef contestant

Friday, November 27th, 2009

Yesterday was a big cooking day. Thanksgiving will do that to a person. I wasn’t even making a big meal, just breakfast for us and a side dish and dessert to take to a potluck later in the afternoon.
The day started off great! I made a double batch of Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal–one without nuts for [...]

A plague has descended upon our home

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Izzy’s has been pretty healthy as far as kids go. We’re experiencing her second ever cold, so I do count us as really lucky. She started off with a sniffle and a sneeze here and there on Friday. On Saturday, her congestion worsened and globs of snot would fly at me each time she sneezed. [...]

Arata Pumpkin Farm

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

We went down to Arata Pumpkin Farm today. I wanted to start a Halloween tradition with Izzy by picking out pumpkins at a real pumpkin farm. We picked Arata Pumpkin Farm because their website said they had a pig in their petting zoo. We really wanted Izzy to meet a pig since it was the [...]

We went to the Academy of Sciences today with Grandma Judy. We found the secret little kids room, and popped inside. It was totally awesome! There was so much fun stuff for kids! I know where we’re going to spend every rainy Sunday morning this winter. (Allyson: Let me know [...]

Sleeping In

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

Isadora has had a rough couple of days. She’s had an intermittent fever and is in an unfamiliar place. We are at my parents house this weekend, and we’re sharing a room and a bed. It’s usually not a problem for us to share, but she didn’t sleep much the night before last due to [...]

Happy Father’s Day

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

Isadora woke up early-ish so I brought her in to bed with us to see if she might doze a little after she nursed. She did–I bought us another hour and a half of sleep!
I got up with her and let Mitch sleep in being as it is Father’s Day and all. We hung [...]

Sandy Eggo

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Shout out to my friend Steve J for the new moniker for San Diego! It cracked me up when I first read it.
We went on our first family vacation together last week to San Diego. We flew down on Monday afternoon on Virgin America–best airline ever. I hope they expand their route service because I [...]

Ralph’s World

Sunday, June 7th, 2009

We took Isadora to her first concert today to see Ralph’s World. Most kids music is totally obnoxious. Some of it will make you want to pierce your eardrums just to ensure you never have to hear it again. Ralph’s World is not like that! The music is very family friendly music–stuff kids love, and [...]
