Then and Now

Notice the difference just a year can make? We got the moses basket out while moving and I snapped this picture just today. The first picture is sometime in the fist couple of weeks after Whitaker was born. I really wish we had taken one a little panned out so you could really see the size. It's astonishing what growth happens in one year!

tiny chucks

i found a tiny pair of chuck taylor's at a used kid's clothing store today. i felt like i scored big time! they seem to elevate any outfit to super-star cool.

hot day + cool water + live music + free = happiness for all involved

4sale!

flowering trees, baby grass, everything coated in chartreuse pollen... it's spring around here and spring fever has hit us hard this year. we have been scouring, decluttering, plucking and pruning, and in general making it look like nobody actually lives in our house. all of this is so that when it goes on the market in the next couple of days it will catch the eye of that certain someone who will imagine herself living in this house that we've called home for just shy of three years. here are a few pics.

visiting

we've been hosting my nieces natalie and porter this weekend. whit has sure enjoyed the company and thinks that porter makes for some very fun entertainment.

pure joy

whit had a weekend of a couple of firsts this weekend. first time getting a haircut and first time in a swing. the swing makes me really look forward to this summer and all the walks we can take to the local park.
