Extended Co-Sleeping

September 13, 2009

Since we moved, I have been sleeping in Landon’s new big-boy twin bed with him. And Daddy is sleeping on the couch. Our new bedroom needed to be painted, so we don’t have our bed set up yet. I think that is going to finally happen tomorrow, since I finished painting the trim today. Honestly, [...]

Tips for Moving with a Toddler

August 2, 2009

We are moving, and I am super exited. The new place will have a big yard for Landon and much more living space. The kitchen is a lot bigger, so my goal is to spend more time in there. Maybe I’ll actually cook once in a while? As luck will have it, our new neighbor [...]

Since I wasn’t able to blog much while away, I want to recount my Germany trip with Landon and share the many great pictures I took: Landon and I flew from Newark, NY (around 5 p.m.), to Hamburg, Germany, to make our every-six-months-or-so pilgrimage to my parents and to see my friends.

Bringing Son to Daddy’s Construction Site Day

June 9, 2009

Landon got to do something very exiting today: he got to see Daddy at work and drive a big tractor/construction vehicle/excavator . . . I give up. I have no idea what machine that was; I even tried to find out the correct name for it by looking it up in one of Landon’s construction [...]

Time for My Toddler Boy’s First Haircut?

May 12, 2009

Landon didn’t have hair for the longest time (take a look at these pictures), but that was no surprise to me, because I was a baldy for a long time as well. He has the same fine hair I have, also no surprise. His hair finally grew and is getting long now. What was a [...]

My Polite Little Son

April 6, 2009

Yesterday Landon was nursing when I had to sneeze. He stopped drinking, looked up at me, and said, “Bless you” before he continued to nurse. How cute is that from a little toddler! I have to say, Landon is turning out to be a very polite little fellow, without much of our input. When I [...]

Finding Time for Exercising and… Taxes

March 26, 2009

Taxes, ugh… I just spend another evening compiling the necessary information for our accountant. Yes, we still haven’t sent him what he needs. I have been meaning to give him a call for weeks now, to at least let him know that we intend to use him again this year! But I have been so [...]
