I am extremely lucky to be married to a classically trained guitarist. Yes, my husband is in a rock band, and can shred on his Les Paul guitars, but it’s the compositionally complicated pieces I enjoy most. Rhys has grown rather fond of the guitar, as well, which stands to reason since Ramsey’s been playing… Continue reading duet with dad

water baby
Rhys is a Pisces, and let me tell you, this boy loves water. Yes, many babies love baths, splashing around, playing in the tub, but it’s more than that with Rhys. Yes, he is crazy about bath time. That’s a given. This boy loves to drink water. I’ll ask, “Do you want some water?”, and… Continue reading water baby
costumes off
Ahhhh. The end of Halloween night. Rhys somehow managed to transition his costume from milkman to chippendale dancer, with his unbuttoned oxford shirt and undone bow tie. Regardless, both Rhys and Will seemed pretty relieved to be out of their costumes by the end of the party. Sometimes, the most fun you can have is… Continue reading costumes off
eight months old
Eight months old, and too smart for his own good. I can’t get anything past this kid anymore, including a Scrabble tile caption for these monthly photos. I’m going to have to think of a tricky way to divert his attention from the tiles AND to get him to look at the camera at the… Continue reading eight months old
mommy movies
Three of my girlfriends and I have a Monday mom ritual. We hit the movies, lunch in the grass, and take turns shopping while the others watch the babies. It’s brilliant. Yes, I said movies. Yes, with babies. Pacific Theaters screens Monday morning mommy movies each week at 11am. It’s genius. Moms can go catch… Continue reading mommy movies
rhys & friends: halloween
Yay for Halloween. And yay, Rhys had not one, not two, but four opportunities to don his costume this year. I am sure he thought I was nuts, dressing him in the same outfit day after day. Miraculously, his white shirt and pants managed to stay clean for four days in a row. How? I… Continue reading rhys & friends: halloween
halloween ’11
Ah, Halloween. You might be my favorite holiday. I love to dress up, but moreover, I love to dress others up. It could be a throwback to my costuming days, could go way back to directing plays in my garage as a kid. Regardless, I’ve always had more fun executing costumes for my husband than… Continue reading halloween ’11
everything takes longer with baby
Yep. It’s true. Everything takes longer with a baby, including blog design. I assure you, witty and amusing posts are coming soon. Maybe not as soon as I had hoped, but hey, what do you expect? I’ve got a baby.
seven months old
It’s that time of month again! Rhysie mug shots! This time, however, Rhys was on to me. He noticed that I hung a backdrop for these shots, which he promptly pulled down. He saw the Scrabble tiles laying in wait before him, as you can see for yourself…
survey says!
I used to love watching Family Feud back in the day. I longed to stand at the podium, right hand poised behind my back, ready to slap the button and reply. “We asked a hundred people the following question…” Flash forward to present day. I am getting ready to give Rhys dinner. I pop him… Continue reading survey says!
