Posted in Casey, Kieran, Liam, Seasons, birthdays, brothers, cute conversations, ferrets, holidays, knitting, parenting, pets, pictures, school, sibling stuff on February 14, 2009 | 4 Comments »

That headline is a bit misleading, but I had to write something to lure you guys in, no? We haven’t had any action of  the big exciting event variety (except for Kiri, who just learned to jump and is over-the-moon excited about that!) but we’ve had lots of little things going on, so it’s time [...]

Whew! It’s amazing I managed to post at all this month. It’s been crazy. But with the exception of a couple of packages that still need to be wrapped, we are ready for Christmas. We arranged and purchased the class gift for Liam’s teacher and her assistant. Tips and seasonal gifts for various people have [...]

For the last couple of weeks, the children in Liam’s Kindergarten class have been sewing felt slippers for themselves. As far as I know, this is the first time Liam has done sewing for more than a few stitches, and he and I both are quite proud of how well his slipper turned out. At [...]

Birthday Boy

Posted in Liam, birthdays, pictures on December 9, 2008 | 3 Comments »

We had Liam’s “official” birthday party yesterday. We had a small one with just the four of us on Thanksgiving Day, his actual birthday, so yesterday’s shindig was for Liam’s friends. We kept it nice and simple – it was basically a big playdate with cake and ice cream involved. We had a couple of [...]

My Dear Liam, Five years ago tonight, on a Thanksgiving evening, you came to us and changed a husband-and-wife duo into a family. At first, and for a long time after, you were a Mommy-only baby, but eventually you reached out and allowed others into your life – Daddy, Gran-Gran, Pop-Pop. You were ever so [...]

Three Down For The Count

On Tuesday I met up with a new milestone in my parenting career. Right around noon I got a call from the Waldorf School. On the other end of the phone was Liam’s sweet teacher, who was concerned because he was “warm, his cheeks flushed, and all he’s interested in is staring at the wall. He’s [...]

Well, since I did promise a photo run-down of our summer, I guess I’d better get to it. Being as it is October now, and my laptop is finally back in my loving arms, and all that stuff. During this summer I was keeping the blogging and the photography light in order to give myself [...]

…with the first day of kindergarten. My first baby really is growing up. (Note to self – stock up on tissues for these moments.) Our big boy was all excited to go as lots of his friends from last year are in his class, and he hadn’t seen most of them since last Spring… “Bye, [...]

Posted in Liam, pictures on August 11, 2008 | 4 Comments »

I told Liam I was heading upstairs to put Kiri down for a nap. I should have paid more attention when the reply, “No worries, Mommy. I need to do some decorating anyway.” drifted up the stairs. Next time I will listen a bit more closely.
