Piper over the weekend.

This pic isn’t of Pip, but it’s on the drive up to see the Pip. I drove up on Father’s day to better serve my husband. On Father’s day, I basically sat back and watched. I didn’t really hold Piper Jane except for when she’d curiously leave Jake for a few minutes and flit over [...]

Some weekend jazz.

On Friday night we went to a store opening party in Soho for the French boutique Agnes B. I wanted the whole collection. Such beautifully subtle details. Take a look here. For such pretty clothes, it’s not too crazy of prices, but still out of my range. I’m still crossing my fingers that Jake might [...]

Piper Jane and Jake’s “thing”.

Do you and your kids have inside jokes? Or little routines you do together? I have some with my little girl that I cherish deeply. We have some as a family that are precious too. But Jake and Pip have a few things together that are just not my business. Like Piper Jane loves to [...]

Pip: All she did was smile.

Equal parts smiley and giggly. The piptures with Jake below are the weekend winners. It wasn’t even a contest this time around. We took Piper Jane on a walk around the hospital. She gets so excited for walks now, that as soon as we leave her room she does kind of a gallop/run/jump/dance move. And [...]

Piper Jane: Swings like a monkey.

Endless smiles.

Piper Jane laughs her vent off.

Here is a little video from Sunday of Jake and little Pip playing together. I don’t know about you, but for me it’s a new favorite. (until she bonks her face on the rocking chair sad.)

Pip hugs her mama

I know I’m doing things opposite, by beginning this post with the grand finale picture, but I just can’t help myself. On Friday, I taught Piper Jane how to hug, and we were able to work on it a little bit over the weekend. I was worried I’d have to go over it a lot [...]

Piper Jane plays on the floor

After church we whisked up to see Pippy for our usual sunday visit. Like always, she greeted us with the biggest grin we had ever seen and signaled that she was dying to get out of her wheel chair and play. So we did. Piper Jane is so so so ticklish. In fact, sometimes when [...]

Piper gets confused

We buy Pippy toys that are good to chew on, I swear. Sometimes she forgets where they are and decides to chew on huge ones like below. She knocked this bad boy over and began to chew away like it was her job!Such a silly monkey frog Here you’ll find a lovely display of The [...]

It’s hard to compete with dad.

Piper loves her dad so much that I couldn’t even get a picture of her yesterday without her looking at him. Here are a few of her looking completely smitten. This is something we have in common.
