around here

Around here we are playing dress up in summertime clothes, just to get us ready for the warm weather just around the corner. Plus, at the rate Ivar is growing, he is not going to fit into this sweet outfit that Mimi and Papa brought back for him from Hawaii!

Around here we are having more trouble with our naughty cat than we are with our infant son.

Around here we can't get over how "healthy" our son looks. We laugh at how it looks like he has rubber bands around his wrists.

Around here we are so elated that the snow is melting. Rory was out all weekend working on the yard and added 11 bags of woodchips to our front landscaping.

Around here we are debating if perhaps now would be the right time to take down the artificial Christmas tree we put up on our porch five months ago. It's hard to know...we'll be putting it back up again in only 7 months.

Around here we are living through our baby's first fever, cough and cold. It means that we're snuggling a lot, reading lots of books together and that I am still in my pajamas from Saturday night.

Around here we're low on the staples: milk, bread, eggs and butter. Hard to get by without those ingredients.

Around here we are celebrating the tulip buds that are popping up all over our front garden. I can't wait for spring flowers!

Around here we rearranged the living room furniture. Because that just needs to be done once in a while.

Around here we have added a high chair to our kitchen table set up so that our little man can start eating sweet potatoes and carrots with his mom and dad. It's the best. He's very proud to have joined us. The last time I posted an around here post was over a year ago! It is so amazing to track the day to day details and to see how hugely our life has changed in one year... You can read that post by clicking here.
