The Cat Apartment March 1, 2012 Four-Legged Friends

Nate is currently OBSESSED with the cats. He loves hugging Rudy, whose name he can say really well, and gets a real kick out of chasing Farley around the main floor of our house. The cats continue to take up residence every morning on the dining room chairs, even though this puts them at the [...]

Lite-Brite Glow February 29, 2012 Parenting

Nate has been enjoying the Lite-Brite lately. Tonight he wanted to bring it inside his tent and I didn’t stop him. The glow that the Lite-Brite cast onto his sweet little cheeks was almost magical.

A Toe (Project 366, Day 55)

Toddler Toe February 24, 2012 Parenting

A few months back, Nate and I got up early, as we usually do, and when I turned on the kitchen light to make the coffee, pour the sippy cup of milk and make the oatmeal, Nate looked down at his feet. “Oh, no. A toe,” he said. Sure enough, when I looked down at [...]

Project 366 – Day 54: A Box and a Bot-bot

Robot Daddy February 23, 2012 Parenting

After Nate came home from daycare I suggested that he and Graham make a fort out of a rather large box that contained some goodies that were shipped my way today. About fifteen seconds later I looked back at the box and Graham had cut a door in one side for Nate. Then Graham decided [...]
