My camera rested this week. Michelle and I took a few pictures in Salt Lake last weekend and she even, maybe, got me over my fear of photo-editing and Photoshop. Someday. Someday I will feel I could actual edit a photo. Grow-up, Tracy. So iPhone -o-matic again. I know – you’re sick of my…
Eloise came home from school one day very upset. A girl in school had asked her ‘what she was’ and by ‘what are you’ the girl meant ‘what religion’ – because as the girl made quite clear to Eloise ‘you have to be something – you can’t be just nothing’ and when Eloise responded again…

I find myself in Utah for four days enjoying an incredibly beautiful family and their friends. I’m even going to church for three hours tomorrow. I know. Who am I.(But it’s nice to have an excuse to wear a new dress and shoes..not that I know anyone who owns either of those.;) …
I’ve had these fun Valentine’s Day Cards on my to-do list ever since Dana posted about it last year. I’ve seen them done a lot lately but have yet to see anyone do it at our school…so I believe we will be pretty unique. We had a ball making these. And we are so happy…
Pin ItHey Mom, what does LMFAO stand for? (A sidenote to my mother and mother-in-law here..LMFAO is a band) It’s like LOL – you know Laughing Out Loud – just even more laughing. But what do the exact letters stand for? Well…Laughing My Fricking Arse Off is what it really means. But the Fricking…
Jed bought the girls a small motorcycle to share. I get that motorcycling is kind of important and I am totally down with the girls learning to ride. I used to ride and just sold my bike this Summer because we needed a new washer and dryer. Turns out that I have a…
So I didn’t really take any pictures this week. A few quick shots with my phone will have to do. Basically what I did this week: 1. Cleaned my house(read shoved toys in closets, under beds and in the office and closed the door. perhaps vacuumed) 2. Made a bundt cake. I have no…
..can you be the first to figure out what went missing this week? ******* Speaking of my favorite child…this week. I am guest posting at Alison’s place today. She is having her 2nd baby soon and asked me to reassure her how awesome it’s going to be to bring another baby into their…
I ran into a friend today. She is in the midst of it all – three kids under four years old. She ran out for an hour to grab some groceries and a coffee by herself. She looked at my kids as we chatted. Eloise was pushing Astrid in the grocery cart and…
Pin ItI brought my camera to my kids’ school this week. Eloise about died. Esther kept asking for more. Astrid wouldn’t let me put her down so I could actually take more pictures. “TOO MANY PEOPLE PICK ME UP!” She is such a clinger. I guess all of my kids have been clingers. I watch the…
A few weeks ago I posted about ending the so-called fictional ridiculous Mommy Wars. I was so happy to see all of the positive responses and also that so many of you like red wine. We can now remain friends. Anyway, the reason there really are no mommy wars between SAHMs, WOHMs, WAHMs,…
First of all, I don’t wear housedresses…although I have a secret love for housedresses. I want to raid the closet of my 86 year old neighbor. She still wears her housedresses from the 60′s and I swoon when I see her outside tending to her garden in them. And then sometimes I think to…
There was a time that I chronicled every month of Astrid’s young life. Some of my favorites are here and here. I cannot believe how bald that child was. (awesomely exposed snow picture with no editing.ahem.if I do say so myself) And since monthly updates now seem ridiculous I thought it was okay just this…
I’m taking a picture a day – everyday – in 2012. You can see proof at 365 week 1 and 365 week 2. (Trying to get kitties in the picture. Cat wrangling is almost as hard as cat herding) This week I used my Canon. Poor lonely thing that doesn’t get out much in the…
I took Astrid to the mall last week. Honestly we were not even really shopping. It was raining and it’s a good place to stretch our legs on a Tuesday morning. We returned something to Justice. I think I found 16 peace sign shirts in Eloise’s closet and there was still one with tags on…
Pin ItIt’s so typical these days. Astrid sits on her little pink potty. I sit on mine since I’m in there anyway. However mine is not little nor pink. Which kind of sucks. Her knees almost touch my shins because our bathroom is so small. She smiles at me and says “you hear that mommy?” as…
Pin It
Target -- now it all makes sense!
Turn birthday cards into a "book" for your child or grandchild to read...what an awesome clever idea
