Window to the future? I see this exact face and scenario repeating in about 13 1/2 years. And I volunteer Jared as resident driving instructor. XO, Katrina This post is part of The 52 Project: One photo of Beany every week of the year.
New Year! New projects! New baby!
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! As always, it flew by this year, but we spent tons of great time with family and friends, and now we’re ready to take on 2014 with reckless abandon. Well, maybe not reckless abandon, but we’re going to live it up — you know,…
Boston, Beany, Beantown
Hello, hello! It’s been so long! I never intended the dear blog to take such a summer respite, but I think it’s safe to say things have been a little wild and crazy for us the past few months. For those who weren’t aware based on Twitter and Instagram ramblings, we’ve moved! Yep, we left…
Splish, splash! Summer is here!
It’s officially summer. It’s officially hot. Beany is officially a pool baby. Happy Friday! XO, Katrina
Sometimes we play stickers
Beany has always been a detail-oriented, hands-on kind of girl, and over the past few months, her constant need for “doing” has manifested itself in an obsession with stickers.

There’s a blizzard blowing outside, and Mr. Edwards looks more like a frosty Santa Claus than his usual grizzly man self. Although I could replay…
Minding our Ps and Qs: Ricotta Lemon Bars
Nothing makes you reevaluate your words, actions and unintentional mannerisms quite like spending your days with a 2-foot-tall mimic. Toddlers come with an innate talent for reflecting the good, not-so-good and do-I-really-do-that kinds of qualities in the people around them, and our Beany girl has taken to this age-required aptitude with zeal. Our regular conversations…
Springtime in January: Beany reads outside
Today is appropriately chilly for Jan. 31. Cold and getting colder, says the weatherman. Last night, we listened as buckets of rain poured down overhead and howling winds blew our poor skinny trees back and forth until they bent like licorice. Piglet would have said, “Tut, tut.” But then, it was already raining. Weather is…
