Today I went out to lunch with Christina and her son, Evan (I left Freya at home with Brian to take her nap). We went to a little “hole in the wall” joint in the middle of a strip mall here in town, between a UPS store and an Albertson’s. You’d think we would be […]

the snowy day

Brian flew home from San Francisco last night. At the time, moderate snowfall was predicted for our area but as usually happens in the Pacific Northwest, nothing materialized except a half-inch of nothin’. So he arrived home safely and on time, and Freya was so happy. At one point she was just sitting on the […]

Freya decided not to nap today. I guess that’s why she went to sleep at 8:15 tonight, much earlier than usual for our little night-owl. Today I nursed her to sleep at 12:15, but she woke up five minutes later and I spent the next 45 minutes trying to get her back to sleep, to […]

I took Freya for a little walk before lunchtime today. We went down our street to the play field, which is usually filled with screaming soccer or lacrosse playing children on the weekends. Once we were a good distance into the large field, I set Freya down and we walked around together for a while, […]

Sold my candy apple red Roxbury Drive bag last night, and shipped it to its new home this morning. Sigh. I miss it a bit, even though it just sat in my closet ever since we moved into this house. So shiny. So pretty. But so useless for me right now. I don’t go out […]

So Freya went through this phase in January where she would stay up til almost 11pm at night. We never figured out what the deal was — we kept to our usual routine of dimming lights and volume after 8pm, reading her books downstairs, and then trying to nurse her down or slow-dance her to […]

I need help, readers. Please feel free to comment here, or if you followed this link from my facebook, comment there. So Freya is 15 months old and it’s the middle of stupid winter. We need fun things to do that don’t cost money, don’t involve me buying her more toys, and can be done […]
big girl bed

Shopping around online for Freya’s future twin bed, I stumbled upon a website selling “Pacific Rim” wood furniture. And this is one of their beds. That will look familiar to anyone who has been in my bedroom, heheh. Yeah, it’s the bed in our guest room, which I bought in 1999 in San Francisco and […]
