This and That

Fiona is already over three months old. Unbelievable! She’s growing so fast and definitely not my tiny, squishy newborn any more. Now she’s my tiny, squishy baby. She’s very chatty, much more so than I remember Meredith being, though it’s hard to remember so long ago. She’s starting to be able to roll over fairly consistently [...]

First Haircut

Before

Meredith has been needing her bangs cut for a while. I’ve been hesitant to do anything about them. For one, because I didn’t want to do it myself, but I don’t think she’d sit still while a stranger came at her face with scissors. Also, for a while at least, I think it was bothering me [...]

18 Months!

It’s been a while since I last posted. We’ve had guests, and then been sick, and honestly, I just really haven’t felt like sitting down and writing much. I’ve been reading all my favorite blogs in my RSS reader, but rarely commenting. Partly too I read so many other blogs that are doing exciting things or [...]

Meredith is going through a bit of an odd stage. She doesn’t want to crawl. At all. For any reason. She also prefers not to be carried unless she’s tired. But she loves to walk. The thing is, she doesn’t seem quite confident in herself yet. She can walk [...]

Random Stuff

First off, I’ve decided to drop the anonymity. I’ve spoken to my husband about it and he agrees there’s probably not much point. You still won’t find me publishing my address or phone number here, but I’d like to occasionally share pictures or video too. So, hi! I’m Lindsay, my husband is Kris, [...]

Update

Well, I haven’t posted in a couple of months. Mostly because I decided I’m not a very good writer anyway and it’s doubtful anyone even reads this. But in reality I’m writing this more for myself to look back on than for anyone else so I’ve decided to keep it up again, at least a [...]

Spring

Spring is definitely my favorite season. I love watching the trees bud and flowers bloom. It’s nicer on the coast than on the prairies, where the grass is still brown and there are no flowers or buds yet. Spring here means more sun, longer days, camping, beaches, walks in the forest, and so [...]
