When it comes to blogging, I think I’ve gotten a pretty decent grasp on things. I interact on some of the most important social media platforms out there (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Pinterest). I make sure my posts go up on these networks when they’re published and I’m make certain to expose my writing […]

How is your weekend going so far? I meant to get this posted earlier today (think, 7:00 am earlier) but the day has gotten away from me. The hubs had to work, the little man is sickly again, and it’s just been an emotional whirlwind around our house (more on that to come this week!). […]

So how was everyone’s week? Things were pretty good here at the “K” household. Lots of work for me, a few days of gorgeous sunshine (followed by some down days of RAIN) and a happy and somewhat healthier little boy. I know I’ve said it before, but I really love these posts…the ones where I […]

I always love running across new memes and blog hops that give me great ideas and inspiration for posts. Not that there is anything wrong with the fun quirky memes, or the Photography Challenges (which, by the way, did you notice that we just launched the debut of Still Life Standouts today?). You all know […]

Blue, blue, and more blue. No pink here, at least not yet (But that’s another story, for another day). When I saw that sonogram three years ago that showed me that I was going to be a boy mom, I had no idea what to do. I grew up with a sister, I had girl […]

We’re still right at three months shy of Little Man’s third birthday. Most days I find it completely impossible to believe that he’s gone from this: To this: So soon. I think the reality that he was growing up hit me the other day on the way home from Walmart. We’d made a random trip, […]

Dear Noah, The title of this letter is a fun play on words. Because as of today we are less than three months away from you turning three. And you are still, in reference to age, less than three years old. Mommy’s clever isn’t she? (I’m sure the teenage you reading this will look at […]

I still remember the very first day I met “the boy wizard.” I was 10 years old, and in the 5th grade. I always read on an Advanced Level, because (let’s face it) I was just as much of a nerd back then as I was in high school. I remember my small-town Elementary School […]

Last Friday night, I made the drive into town to go meet up with some friends to see the new Harry Potter movie. It was one of those rare and beautiful days in Kodiak. The thermostat on the car said 71 degrees, and the sun was shining gloriously (yes, it really is a glorious thing […]

How was your weekend? Ours was lazy, and rainy, and pretty all around relaxed. We stayed up late Friday and Saturday night, and slept late in the mornings. It was fabulous. Minus the fact that the little man didn’t go to sleep until 2:00 am on Friday night/Saturday morning. But it was fun, nonetheless. After […]
