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.

helper

how much do you think i should have to pay for such fine quality work?

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.

pillow talk

i've been thinking lately of putting a little pillow in whit's crib. i'm still a little nervous to give him a blanket because he is just about the busiest sleeper i've ever laid eyes on. i feel like giving him a blanket is just asking for trouble. he'd probably get himself wrapped up like a little burrito overnight. but the last few days we've spied him using his crib bumper as a pillow which makes me wonder if he might like having a real pillow. take a look for yourself.
