14/52 and musings on motherhood

14/52 and musings on motherhood

The 52 Project, photos 14/52: Beany: Beany with her beloved Bunny. She’s certainly an attentive mother. I also like to think she rules her imaginary kingdom with the noblest intentions, but recent conversations have me wondering.             Beany: “Mommy, what does a queen do?”            …

The 52 Project, 13/52: Beany and Bear: Oh, those blue eyes. This is how kids get kitties and ponies and piles of toys they don’t need. Or milkshakes, if you’re strong-willed parents like us. 😉 XO, Katrina

The 52 Project, 7/52: Bear: Look at this guy, with a face so sweet I almost forgot the long stripe of blue crayon that ended up on the arm of the white chair seconds after I took this photo. Almost. Beany: She’s been the queen of expressions since she was barely a week old, but look at this teenager face!…

Fall on Walden Pond

October 13, 2015 By Katrina

Fall on Walden Pond

Fall on Walden Pond is pretty much magical. We made the 20-minute trek to Walden Pond this weekend as a quick getaway to see the changing leaves, but we were more than pleasantly surprised by what we found. The weather was perfect — crisp without being cold — and the pond sparkled in the sunshine. “Mermaids, Mommy!” Beany squealed as soon as the water came…

Fall Means Apple Picking

Fall Means Apple Picking

I’m happy to report that fall has finally arrived in New England. It seems like it’s taken longer this year, and the trees — though still very green — are starting to show signs of the changing season. It’s cool enough now to keep the windows open most of the day, which always sends a…

A Day in Portland, Maine

A Day in Portland, Maine

We spent a day in Portland, Maine, a few weekends back, and I think the more time we spend there, the more we love it. There are so many cute shops (Little and K. Colette are my favorites — so much to see!) and a lot of great restaurants, and I always leave wishing we could stay…

Fit for a Fairy: Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Fit for a Fairy: Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Beany has been increasingly interested in ingredients lately, and her questioning is often relentless. “What is that?” “Where did that come from?” “What does that taste like?” “How did you make it?” This has its plusses and minuses, of course. Curiosity finally convinced her to taste salad dressing, which made her taste spinach salad, which…

What Kids Can Teach You

What Kids Can Teach You

At the first hint of sunshine and warm weather last weekend, we took off on our first spring adventure of the year. Snacks packed. Kids in the car. Not much of a plan besides Beany’s request for a beach. Lucky for her, New England has plenty of coast to go around.I tend to fall into such a trap of…

Before I Blink

Before I Blink

I’ve been missing my 52 Project from last year a bit lately, so I decided last week to keep my camera out on the kitchen counter so I’d remember to snap a few more photos. It’s easy to take the camera along on our weekend adventures, but it’s the day-to-day stuff that really seems to capture these…
