Maybe Mondays are better anyway, because that’s when I can actually remember what happened over the weekend. I’d like to do weekly recaps here, since this blog has swallowed my homeschool blog, and I like to have some family life documentation for future nostalgic purposes/grandparents/et. al. So feel free to skip and come back when there’s house stuff. But if … Continue reading
Not going to lie; I’m pretty excited about this one. It’s a project that could not be a Pinterest Challenge, because I came up with it all on my own. Not that a striped dresser is anything unique, but I haven’t seen any other subway map striped dressers. Back when I posted about the plans for Ari’s room, I mentioned that … Continue reading

Remember how I said that Milo was the only brother who hadn’t contributed anything to it? We made quick work of remedying that situation.

Back on Friday, I was very proud of my ambitious plans and all the stuff we were going to … Continue reading
All the good alliterative “hey–here’s what the week was like or whatever” titles are already taken. Friday Five, Weekend Wrap-up, etc. I need something totally not obvious that no one’s ever thought of before, which would probably mean it would need to be either really bad or really weird.
