Road trip adventures Everly enjoyed.

Whew! After a week on the road we needed a day to decompress after getting back to Evansville. Yesterday we sat around in our PJ’s, did many loads of laundry, scrubbed cat vomit from the carpets, cleaned cat boxes… You know all the chores and stuff that go undone while you are away. Everly was a [...]

The last time I showered in New Mexico…

What is it with shower situations in New Mexico? We are spending the night in Tucumcari, NM this time around. We got a cheap hotel to spend the night in and unfortunately it only has a shower. You see it’s a cheap hotel, tiny, clean and shower-less with a super loud heater… You get what you [...]

Forging ahead – Bringing our car home from Arizona

We are on the road in our newly fixed car! After flying here and hanging out with family and friends it’s now time to make the trip back home, in our car. We spent much time this morning debating weather or not it was a good idea to make the trek up north to I-40 [...]

Live Blogging: Cat Swallows Needle

Here are my tweets as they played out during the night and early hours of the morning. I didn’t realized it would reach so many people. At first I was just tweeting so my husband would know what was going on, then I kept tweeting to be sure I didn’t leave anyone in the dark. [...]

Dazed, anxiety ridden and plagued with ham disease.

It’s true. N and I got the holiday ham that keeps on giving. It seems we have food poisoning or something… It’s been an ongoing thing for over a week now. We just tossed several pounds of ham leftovers after we figured it was the culprit, also tossed the spinach salad just for good measure. [...]

Christmas 2009 as parents.

I never thought I would be such a gingerbread cookie fiend! Last week we made up a ton of cookies to get in the holiday spirit and also so N would have cookies to take in to work for everyone. We’d been trying different gingerbread cookie recipes each year, nothing was particularly impressive and I thought [...]

Someone is excited about the holiday!

She’s not even walking yet and she’s already being a stinker about opening gifts early. After her gift snagging earlier in the week we moved all the gift bags and stuff with ribbon away from her reach. We thought the paper and curly ribbon was attracting her attention. Looks like she’s smarter about this gift [...]

A twitter addiction? Confessions and talk of loss.

I have a confession. I am fairly certain twitter is killing my creativity! I’ve been having issues with blog content since Everly’s birth. Sure I am a busy mom who is working part time in addition to caring for a new baby. Yeah, computer time is limited these days… The thing is it’s not the time that [...]

Baby leg warmers crochet fun

I’ve been working on making E a pair of baby legwarmers since October. I just finished them today which is kind of a big deal. You see I tend to start and never finish my knit and crochet projects… Today will probably be the only day she’ll wear them since it took me two months to [...]

Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans…

All the trees are naked and it is very close to freezing at night now. Thanksgiving is just right around the corner and we aren’t really sure where the year has gone. Life is blowing by so fast and it just feels like we are standing here in a blur while it all swirls around us [...]

Today we are proud home owners!

Well, we’ve done it! Several years of planning and thousands of dollars later… We are now the proud owners of our own home! N was bummed that we had no “sold” sign to pose with out on the front lawn though… We may just have to stage it anyway, kind of like this: We went in [...]

Sigh… Rest and recuperation are in order.

This will be the first weekend in probably a month or so that we’ll have to relax and get caught up on things. Marching season has come and gone, my 9th marching season is now over. Sure winterguard plans and ideas are in the works but it wont be until January when the performance madness picks [...]

To my baby girl at 20 weeks

Dear Sweet Everly, You are now 20 weeks old/ 5 months today. Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday I was holding you for the first time. When we first brought you home from The Farm it felt like time was going so slow as we learned your needs and got used to being [...]

Super, crazy- busy is an understatement!

Before becoming a parent I really had no idea just how busy things could get. Sure back in my pre-parenthood days it felt busy and hectic but in comparison to how it is now I really had it easy back then. Now things truly are insanely busy and I could probably benefit from some crack, ADD [...]

A trip down bloggy memory lane…

Posted on Oct 21 in Uncategorized, parenting, personal stories, pictures say 1000 wordsby TalinaPrint

Last night N and I were discussing the topic of neighbors. You see our current neighbors just had twin boys and we are pretty excited for them. Everly is gonna have possible playmates right next door!

Anyway we were talking about how few decent neighbors we’ve had and that took us on a trip down memory lane.

Before I was blogging like in 2002 we lived in an apartment and had this neighbor who was a crack head, literally. We swore he was cooking meth in his place based on the strange chemical smells we noticed. He would regularly try breaking our door down when he came home trashed and got our door confused with his. Not a fun time.

In August 2005 we moved from our small one bedroom apartment to a very nice 2 bedroom apartment. The people above us were a treat cutting their hair out on the deck above us and puking on our patio.

In March & April 2007 we lived next door to crazy Rita who threw trash over our fence and did other crazy things to try getting a reaction from us.

Speaking of memory lane, this blog has been around since January 2005, can you believe that? I’ve got 4 years of life in almost 1000 posts all documented right here!

To further document life I must tell you the latest on our home buying saga. The appraisal came back today and it is about $6000 less than the sellers asking price… We are trying to negotiate with the seller now to get the price dropped.

Also on Wednesday we hooked up with an independent photographer and Everly was photographed. Dixie bit the poor photographer too. Nice huh?

We still need to get some family photos done with all three of us, that will happen eventually. Now when the photographer has the proofs all done from E’s photo session I’ll be sharing some with you right here. I can’t wait!

In the meantime here is a cute photo of E and Jack making friends last night before bath time:

It’ll be so great in a few months and years when Everly can play with the boys next door.

Cute picture!
