We when out to a few Yard Sales a few weekends ago. Yard Sailing if you will. Sam glommed onto this little “electric guitar” at one house. Complete with a whammy bar. He threw it over his shoulder, started shimming his hips, and wailing on the thing. It was adorable. Price tag on the guitar – $1. It was a no brainer. We brought it home.

Rob and I celebrate 7 years of marriage and 10 years of life together!

Mother’s Restaurant, Buffalo, New York.

Dinner followed by the Decemberists concert at ArtPark.

Sam is “napping” in Mama’s bed. This boy is a sleeper. It’s a totally different world when you have a sleeper. He’s totally opposite from his sister (who still doesn’t need to sleep!)

… I saw a bear. A great big bear! …

We were walking through the woods yesterday and saw a bear!

Rawr!

A savior on a hot summer day.

Stay Cool!

When I rock this boy to sleep I hold on a little bit longer. Hum to him and sniff his head. He’s a sweet, sweet boy and I cannot even begin to describe my love for him.

Tonight I played a game of Goldfish with my daughter. The inaugural game that will, I hope, lead to many more.

The cards were included within a package sent by a friend. Someone who was originally found and snatched into my life because of this blog. It is still crazy to me how much these far off people have become ingrained in my daily life and sense of self. And now they have a roll in my kids’ lives too. So cool.

Thank you Kristen!

I love it when Sophia gets ahold of my camera. Life from the four year old perspective

Cowie!

Feet!

Close up!

There is a lot about having kids that I adore. The random creativity is awesome. Found this “mouse” as I walked through the house.

“Thanks Easter Bunny!” hop hop
