3 weeks ago....

we got our evenings, weekends, and most importantly, our James back.




Congratulations James! I am so proud of you!

Slumber Party

Time to start saving...

We only thought we had secured Noble in his 'walk around' toy during the wedding dress up bonanza. He somehow managed to break free...


Ornery boy:).

Spring Program

London had her spring program at preschool, and it was too precious! She sang five songs (with motions) and did a fantastic job! I can't believe she is almost finished with her first year of preschool. She is a precious girl and more fun everyday! (As I type this, London's entertaining Noble in his crib (he just woke up from his nap) so he won't cry, and I hear a lot of sweet giggles from his room, it's so nice to have a little helper!)

The girl loves to cook

Which is why I have about 40,000 pictures of her cooking. London decided James needed cupcakes for his birthday, and she whipped some right up (with a little guidance.) :)


Happy Birthday Daddy!!!

13 Months

This post has absolutely nothing to do with London or Noble

Just a disclaimer. It does, however, have to do with my super exciting, makes me want to dance, really got lucky find on craigslist. If I have talked to you at all in the last two years of my life, you'll know that I've been on the hunt for a 'new' table. I've been more than patient with our old table that scratched my children's heads when they crawled underneath and lovingly left brown stains on the carpet where the legs were. Not that it didn't have it's good qualities too, I never had to worry about the surface (Formica doesn't scratch, stain, or show any kind of where or tear that I can see), and we have eaten at that table since James and I have been married (almost 6 years). So I'm not about to chop it into kindling, but I am ready to say goodbye and move on to my fabulous find.



Meet our new table. And before you giggle and smirk at my odd taste (and the fact that the table looks like it belongs in my great grandmother's house), let me explain myself.
First off, I wanted something unique.
Second, I wanted something 'vintage' (which really just goes back to point #1).
And third I wanted something that had no sharp corners (for little heads toddling around it),not too big (for our small eating area), but that could become big (when we have friends and family over), and that was ooozing with charm and character.....whalaaa.



(Here it is again, in case you didn't get a good enough look the first time.)
I love everything from her (I guess I've decided it's a she)little gold glazed double pedestal bottom, to her gorgeous dark stained top. But I'm not finished with her yet, although, she is in great condition, considering she's around 40 yrs. old. No, I have plans for this little (sometimes big) table.
