{Throwback Thursday} Brain Freeze
Only throwing it back about a year here, but this is in my list of favorite photos. This is the first time he experienced a “slushie.” He only got a few sips, but the looks he made while drinking them were so much fun. At the point I took this photo, he...{Throwback Thursday} Whattcha lookin’ at?
My first time participating in Throwback Thursday. I have tons and tons of “old” photos, but this is still among my favorites. It was not long after we took Pandora home… seven-ish years ago. Lord Tyrneathem was looking at the sale ads on the kitchen...{Through the Looking Glass} A Day at the Park
I decided to take the Prince to the park for a little playtime today. It was a bit overcast, but still some of the warmest weather we’ve had in a long time. I decided to take advantage of his good mood to sneak in a little photo shoot. Oh… he insisted on...{Through the Looking Glass} Puddle Progression
Yesterday was finally nice enough and dry enough (as in not snowing or raining or some combination of the above) to take the Prince out for a walk around the neighborhood. What toddler can resist a puddle? Certainly not mine! Of course, he got a bit lazy and less...{Through the Looking Glass} Your Blue Eyes Are Smiling
Just a random photo of the Prince with a great smile. It was a bit blurry, so I played with the coloring for a bit. Finally decided that black and white worked best, but I was disappointed that you couldn’t see his blue eyes… so I removed the black and...{Through the Looking Glass} UGH! Nanas!
My mom’s birthday was on the 14th, but one or another of us has been sick or the weather has been awful so we didn’t get around to her birthday dinner until last night. After dinner, my mom asked the Prince if Nana could have a birthday kiss. He gave...{Through the Looking Glass} Slow Motion
A video takes the place of our photo for the day. My phone’s camera has the ability to film in slow-motion. I caught the Prince in a graceful run… and then added music with YouTube’s video editing...{Through the Looking Glass} Daddy’s Helper
We were at my mom’s house and she needed help with hanging a heavy picture. The Prince thought that Daddy needed some extra help. I edited with PicMonkey… a little cropping, added the Orton effect, added the frame, and even made a vase of flowers on the...{Through the Looking Glass} The Kid & the Kindle
We were finally able to replace our Kindle a few weeks ago and it made all three of us very happy! I didn’t realize how much I missed reading my books on it and how convenient it was for doing quick online tasks. The Prince loves to play with a variety of fun...{Through the Looking Glass} A Sick Day
I swear that we seem to pick up something every time Xander has his check-up with the doctor! Now we’ve spent the last two days feeling completely lousy. Not a great time for me to get sick, because I have a ton of product reviews to get ready for you...{Through the Looking Glass} New Furniture
This post is long overdue… not because I took it a long time ago and forgot to post, but because it is something we have needed for about six years and we finally got it. New furniture! A local company that has been around for many, many years is going out of...{Through the Looking Glass} Biking in the Leaves
The leaves were falling off the trees so much today that it looked like it was snowing leaves. Despite the breeze, it wasn’t terribly cold out, so Xander and I ventured out to play for a bit. He decided to bike down the little ditch in our yard while I panicked...{Through the Looking Glass} A Video for a Change
Yep, there I go breaking my Photo A Day rules again! I’m posting a video. Tsk tsk. I published it to my YouTube page first, but I know I have very few subscribers there compared to readers here. This one is funny enough to share a few times. You’re going...{Through the Looking Glass} Owls
Okay, okay… so it has been pretty much two months since my last “daily” photo. I’ve been taking plenty of pictures, but I haven’t gotten around to doing the editing and post creating for each day. Today’s photo is an owl pillow art...{Through the Looking Glass} Tuxedo Butterfly
My obsession with Maggie Bags is no secret. It’s a company I’m proud to support. Their newly re-designed Butterfly Bags are finally in and they’re awesome! I was one of the very first to receive one of the Tuxedo color combination (available to the...{Through the Looking Glass} Mugging
We were recently at A&W for lunch with Xander’s Nana (my mom). We went often when we were growing up… until A&W began to fade from existence around here. We were really excitedwhen they started t make a comeback. They have the best root beer!...{Through the Looking Glass} Storm
Our area was hit by a surprise, freak storm last night. All of the weather reports called for a mild thunderstorm… but in the middle of the night we were hit by winds topping 100 miles per hour. The damage is crazy and spread over a huge area affecting numerous...{Through the Looking Glass} Fever
We ended up taking Xander into the emergency room last night. He was warm to the touch, despite a normal reading on the thermometer. He was sleeping and we couldn’t wake him up. His heart felt like it was beating out of his chest. They ran a half dozen tests...{Through the Looking Glass} Water Baby
We’ve been on vacation! It was definitely interesting trying to maintain this blog while I was away. My phone service was really sketchy and I found I had far less time to turn on the computer than I expected… not so much “leisure” time. We...
