32/365 Sleeping Like a Baby

32/365 Sleeping Like a Baby

I don’t really have disrupted sleep in the usual sense. Co-sleeping means I don’t have to get out of bed regardless of whether Riley’s having a good night or not. And yes, sometimes she’s more restless than others. But mostly night sleep isn’t a problem. She’ll usually wander into our room around 2am and climb [...]

25/365 Monkeying Around

In her new balloon dress at one of her best buds Birthdays on Sunday. She loved every minute of it – not that you can’t half tell.

Riley’s uptake of technology is truly terrifying. I can only imagine the amount of new things I will have to learn just [...]

Meanwhile, all this rain and all this puddle jumping, is doing absolutely nothing for my laundry situation. I don’t own a dryer so [...]

Point and Shoot

This weekend was a recovery weekend. Luckily , I was mostly the only one in need of recovery. Toddlers don’t seem to notice when they are sick and Josh seemed to be out of sorts for all of 24 hours before he started feeling better again. To aid my recovery, on Saturday morning my sister [...]
