Lady Gaga. . . she's out there. Did anyone see this outfit she wore recently?

Well, she only thought she was a trend setter. . . because these guys did it first!

Apparently, I need to make better use of my time when Wyatt naps.

free weekend

Free weekends during the year are few and far between since I coach soccer in the fall and Brett coaches baseball in the spring. So when we do have one, we like to take advantage of it. Whether that means just relaxing at home or traveling to visit friends for a couple days, we soak it up when we can. This was one of those weekends - we went to Astoria to visit our good friends, Scott and Sage, who we don't get to see too often. This picture is from a few years ago at Scott and Brett's graduation. It was the most recent pic I could find of us all.



It was a short visit, but totally worth it. We spent the morning on the beach where Sage was nice enough to take some family pictures of us. Then the boys stayed home to watch football and nap, while Sage and I went out to some antique stores with coffee in hand. . . perfect fall day. We ended the day with a yummy dinner of salmon and steak followed by apple pie and ice cream. It was nice to get out as a family and see some friends at the same time. Hope you all had a great weekend as well!

what's all the fuss about?

Why does something this small cause such a big problem? Poor little guy. It probably doesn't help that I'm shoving my finger in his mouth and a camera in his face, all to capture a small milestone. He'll thank me later. Actually, he'll probably care less later...he's a boy...but I'll thank me later. :)

just another day in mommyhood

This big boy cut his first tooth this morning .

It's been a sad day.

it was a long week . . .

. . . and I couldn't decide.

Triple Chocolate or Champagne Raspberry?

or both? Yes, please!!

don't worry. . . i did NOT eat both pieces in one sitting. i couldn't even eat one piece in one sitting. these pieces are HUGE... and rich!! a couple bites of each is all i need, and that way, they'll last me a few days!!

also, Brett was out of town. otherwise, these wouldn't have lasted longer than 1 night.
