Earlier today, we checked out our two closest train gardens, the Ellicott City Fire Station and the B&O Railroad Museum in Ellicott City. The E.C. fire station passed out kiddie fireman helmets and candy canes. The display was a lot more elaborate and impressive than I was expecting. There is a donation box for contributing [...]

Night Out to the Air & Space Museum Holiday Party
It’s not often that Rob and I get out alone, so last Friday was fabulous. My parents drove down to stay with Eleanor so that we could attend his company’s holiday party. The venue was the Air & Space Museum, which is such a fun place for a party. The drinks were free, food delicious, [...]
Trip to MD Renaissance Festival
Okay, I can’t put off posting this anymore. Between preparing for the hurricane and my husband going on a business trip with the computer, I haven’t been posting much. But, I can’t wait anymore and am doing this post via smartphone. Not as easy, but it will have to do. I love going to a [...]
Pin ItLoading up for our first post-baby camp out!
It’s always been a struggle to pack for camping trips when we’ve brought the dogs. They hang out in the trunk area, so that left the back seats as the only cargo area. Now, with a car seat and baby in the back it is even trickier! Enter the car-top roof bag!!! It’s taking its [...]
Trip to Ben’s Cabin
Every year, we drive 6 hours to get to a cabin in the sticks in a “crik” with some friends. This was the first time a kiddo has tagged along, but it was a blast. Ellie was easy-going and happy the majority of the weekend. I think she lived it just as much as we [...]
Breaking a new babysitter / Happy anniversary, honey.
About a month ago, I started another search for babysitters through Care.com in preparation for our anniversary night out. I’m much more relaxed about babysitting than I used to be and I wanted to find someone a little less expensive. Early on, I was willing to pay that $13/hr rate, but now it just seems [...]
Saving Money One Haircut at a Time
Cutting Rob’s hair is something I’ve been wanting to try for a long time, but I wasn’t confident enough to try until now. Sherry at Young House Love recently posted a tutorial on cutting John’s hair that was SUPER helpful and gave me the confidence. (Plus, I figured the “Wow, it actually smells like lasagna” [...]
Pin ItWhat came first, the chicken or the left-over CHICKEN LASAGNA WRAPS?
Last night we made chicken gyros, but as with any time we make chicken, we had TONS of leftovers. I didn’t want the leftovers to turn into something green that I pull out of the fridge a month later, so I needed an idea. Da dada DA…in comes Pinterest to save the day! Chicken lasagna [...]
Pin ItAdventures in Babyproofing
It’s official. Ellie can crawl! Now that she’s getting into everything, we’re working on ways to baby-proof. The hardest part was blocking off the top of the stairs. Did you have trouble with this? Our railing posed a problem by starting halfway over the first stair and we didn’t like having a gap there. We [...]
Pin ItEveryone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day!
(Just realized this didn’t get posted…brain dead mommy moment.) Top of the morning to ya! This was probably my favorite St. Patty’s Day ever. For the first time, I really got into the spirit. Rob’s sister came to spend the weekend with us and see her favorite niece. There was gorgeous weather so we spent [...]
