Winnie the Pooh opened yesterday, so with free babysitting for Susanna, we figured we should take the big kids to their first movie at the theater! They both loved the whole experience. Elizabeth was too little to see the screen in her seat, so she ended up on Daddy’s lap for the movie. Tommy was […]

Goodbye, Brittany Drive
Posted in Elizabeth, State College, Susanna, Tommy on Jul 14th, 2011
It’s a tragic day–the kids and I are leaving our lovely little State College home for good. (Derek returns for a couple days next week to oversee the movers.) We had a sweet year here–very dear friends, Elizabeth’s first steps, Tommy’s first foray into homeschooling, and Susanna’s eventful pregnancy and safe arrival. We will miss […]
This is how I found the kids yesterday morning. And I do think Susanna is getting some more chub.
Laura in State College
Posted in Elizabeth, Friends, Susanna, Tommy on Jul 6th, 2011
The kids and I are in serious Laura withdrawal this afternoon after a lovely 5 day visit full of reading, playing, talking (we never run out of things to discuss!), and even a trip to the swimming pool. As soon as we dropped her off at the airport, Tommy turned and said, “Lizzie, don’t you […]
Susanna’s First Baseball Game!
Posted in Elizabeth, State College, Susanna, Tommy on Jul 1st, 2011
The Schaaks gave us their Spikes tickets last night, so Tommy and Elizabeth got to see Ike the Spike one more time before moving. I wasn’t sure how Susanna would do, considering that it was pretty much her bedtime when we got there, but she stayed awake the whole time and was relatively happy. Super […]
Our Wonderful Back Yard
Posted in Elizabeth, State College on Jun 30th, 2011
One of the many great things about this house is our beautiful back yard. Yesterday Tommy had a boys-only playdate across the street at Zach’s, so when Elizabeth got up from her nap, we headed outside for a back yard photo shoot…
Welch Pool
Posted in Elizabeth on Jun 29th, 2011
Our lifegroup met at Welch pool yesterday afternoon, and the kids loved it! Heidi took several pictures with her waterproof camera, and here’s a sneak peek of Elizabeth. If I have a chance, I’ll try to resize a few more…
Visit from Margee
Posted in Elizabeth, Friends, Susanna, Tommy on Jun 27th, 2011
With Derek out of town for three days at a conference, I was even more glad than usual to have Margee come up for a weekend visit! I didn’t get a picture of us together when she was up this winter or while we were both at Hannah and Robert’s wedding, so here’s proof that […]
Big Brother’s Bed…
Posted in Elizabeth on Jun 25th, 2011
…is a much better place to snuggle than one’s own…
Sometimes I complain too much about the kids’ shenanigans without praising them when they’re being good. Yesterday we spent a fun morning at the park and returned just in time for lunch. While I was feeding Susanna and getting everything together, Tommy asked if we could get down his Curious George puzzle to do with […]
