Pretending to drive the car is Winston's new favorite activity. It has replaced pulling all the books off the shelves and running down the street screaming so mommy will chase after you. He could spend hours in the front seat playing with all the buttons and nosing around. Winston has also figured out how to plug my blackberry into the charger. I think we have a little engineer on our hands.

Winston's halloween costume did not agree with him. Our attempts to dress up Humpty Dumpty turned out to be an all out nuclear meltdown complete with flailing of limbs and rolling on the floor. SO we tried something different. Cowboy. Hysterical crying and leg kicking as he tried to pry the cowboy boots from his little feet. So we tried something different. More crying and collapsing on the floor

We've been having lots of fun lately. Walks in the leaves, trips to the pumpkin patch, the petting zoo, the children's museum. We're always trying to keep up with this kid. Winston thinks the word for food is "cheese". You will hear him throughout the day, "cheese, cheese, cheese". He even wakes up in the morning saying "cheese". It just so happens cheese is his FAVORITE food. We buy two bricks

We spent the weekend in early October up at the cabin, just as the leaving were working their magic. Winston was in heaven exploring and throwing rocks in the river. It was so much fun to spend some time with just the three of us!

We spent a long weekend at the beach with Grandma and Grandpa Creer. It was heavenly. One of our friends was getting married in Newport Beach so we thought its was the perfect excuse for a little trip. Winston LOVED the sand and was such a good sport.

You'll probably find it really lame that I am posting pictures from Winston's birthday party in July in the middle of September, but I'm trying to catch up and I've got to start somewhere.

Today is my darling boy's first birthday. He woke this morning all smiles. He's been running around, dancing, laughing, opening and closing doors, and exploring. We love his silly personality and his babbling. I think he must know today is a special day.All this makes me wonder, where did the last year go? When did my little bundle become a little boy? Happy Birthday dear Winston, don't let this

You may have noticed there hasn't been much posting here lately. That is because I've been posting here. That's right folks, some of you know that I started my own interior design firm a couple of months ago and I've been so busy working on projects since I haven't been ready to share this until now. I am specializing in budget interior design so don't think I'm out of reach. If you need help on

We went to the laundromat a couple of weeks ago with Molly and Ruby. There was no clothes washing involved, just laughing, pushing carts, taking pictures, and making people stare.

Seeing the look on Winston's face when Dan comes home from work says it all. We love our Dad's and Grandpa's very much around here. Happy Father's Day!

My husband is in Canada catching fish and discovering the meaning of life in the middle of nowhere which = no cell service, no internet. I haven't talked to him in four days and it feels really weird to have zero communication. So, I am writing to you instead. Come home Dan, we miss you!

Winston is getting to be such a big boy. He loves being around older kids and just jumps right in with all the action. He think he is so big in fact that he gets himself into trouble. He pretty much needs constant supervision and is in to everything. As these pictures show, he took a tumble and cut his eye, almost needing stitches but luckily the Dr. fixed him up with a little glue instead. I

Winston is astounding. This child has more energy than any baby I know. He just never stops. I oscillate between loving his on the go spirit, to being severely concerned he has the most severe case of adhd ever. His smiles just melt me, and his laughs, well that is another story all together. We went to temple square to see the tulips the other day and thanks to the lovely Molly snapped a few

I have a new addiction and it is quickly growing. It all started a few weeks ago when I spotted a gorgeous vintage Longaberger picnic basket while thrifting. Mint condition? Gingham Lined? Sturdy Handles? $3? Yes please! I have since discovered this is wonderful storage solution for craft projects. Easy to transport and perfect for keeping all your supplies in one place. Since this discovery I
