We can say that I’ve been a little bit neglectful of the ol’ blog. No graces, no posts, no excuses. Much has happened in the last little while. Owen had his first trip to New York, lucky little guy. So here’s his first visit to Union Square: And the discovery of his bottom lip: And [...]

Kyle and I were walking around Times Square before dinner on Thursday when I smelled “it.” “It” is my favorite scent of all-time, the scent of a body wash I found at a Marks & Spencer several years ago when I was in Belfast. The Northern Ireland trip took a downturn when “It” spilled and [...]

This evening I got my hands on a sweet fisheye lens.

I have another New York post or two coming soon, but first I’d like to serenade you with these wonderful words from Kyle, spoken matter-of-factly: “There’s a Carter’s outlet beside my hotel, so I got Owen something. There’s a Children’s Place, too, but they didn’t really have anything I liked.” Kyle (who I’m sure is [...]

While Kyle was off cooking himself on the Hudson (I like to randomly poke his legs and watch him scream), I was off hitting strangers in the head with Owen’s stroller in Central Park. I was really excited to show Owen the sights. He’s at a very impressionable age … very observant and all that. [...]

Yes, I’m in New York, a city brimming with adventure. Yes, I’m sitting in my hotel room drinking a cup of coffee, updating my blog. You may say that I’m crazy, sitting here instead of being outdoors. But must I tell you about how this is the first morning in probably two months that I [...]

I’m zonked. Four hours of Wednesday-night sleep, 10 hours of travel and 6 total miles walked make me a very sleepy lady. But here we are:

You know that you’re a mom when sleeping in till 9 a.m. is one of the sweetest joys imaginable. This is what I got to do on Mother’s Day. Kyle brought me breakfast in bed, with an obviously hungry Owen on his heels … which meant that I ate my cinnamon biscuits with a speedy [...]

Grace 15 Some may say this is a no-brainer, but I don’t think it’s possible to feel more purely, wholly loved than when your little 5-month-old looks you in the eyes. Owen doesn’t know anything about me. He doesn’t know my strengths and weaknesses, so he isn’t basing his love off of anything I’ve ever [...]

Carpooling with Kyle today. Dinner with old friends. Re-establishing my milk supply. Ounces never mattered so much. Sweet from the ice-cream truck, like any good 5-year-old. Adding the Google application to my BlackBerry.
