Grapefruit Fun

Zoe loves all fruit and had some grapefruit wedges for lunch. She usually gobbles it all down within a few minutes. Not today. Instead she discovered how squishy they are and how fun it is to make the juice squirt clear across the table. There was sticky grapefruit juice everywhere. And not just regular grapefruit […]

27 Week Appointment

Yesterday was another doctor’s appointment for the baby. As usual, thankfully, everything is great. She had the hiccups while the doctor was listening to her heartbeat. The doppler kept picking up all these little hics. Pretty cute. Zoe went with again and she was so excited all day to hear her sister. She still “whooshes” […]

Garbage Bags

This is a little post to give you a glimpse into our household. About 9 months ago we needed new garbage bags for our kitchen can, Zoe’s diaper pail, and other waste receptacles. At the time we still shopped at Sam’s, so we headed to the appropriate aisle in the warehouse. They had normal […]

A Creature of Routine

Yesterday, we went to the Morton Arboretum and on the way home, Zoe fell asleep in the car. This often happens when it’s close to nap time and she always transistions easily between the car and her bed. We got home, changed her diaper, read a quick story, and laid her sleepy body in her […]

Elmo Slippers

Zoe sure does love her Elmo slippers. She was wearing them during dinner and suddenly her foot was up by her cheek and she had a huge, gentle smile on her face. Zak said, “I bet there aren’t many slippers that get snuggled and cuddled, while they’re still on feet.” Let alone over a bratwurst.

Moving GH

Yesterday was a big moving day. We all worked together to help move GH back into his condo and out of assisted living. Thank goodness the real estate market is so bad, and his condo never sold inspite of being on the market for nearly a year! It went smoothly and GH is already much […]

With Halloween just around the corner, we’ve started to build up the excitement around here. Zoe’s going to be a beautiful peacock for the holiday (if I ever get around to starting it) and we’re planning on taking her around the neighborhood for trick-or-treating. Zak was a little nervous that it wouldn’t be appropriate since […]
