My little man turned 2 in March. Last year we threw a huge party, so to change the pace, we kept it simple this year. We invited immediate family over for a late morning brunch and cake. At 24 months, H knows that the week was a special week of celebration for him, balloons and […]
It was just a year ago that our little bundle of joy came into our lives It has been a whirlwind of a year, a year of joy and a year full of happy memories. I keep reminding myself to write down his birth story so I don’t forget the small details, but I still […]
I’ve seen other bloggers document “a day in the life” and it inspired me to do the same. I love recording and taking pictures of our daily lives, especially these first several weeks after Hawke was born. All the pictures were taken from my iphone. A few of them are very grainy since I […]
Our little man is already 2 weeks old. His full name is Bradley Hawke, but we call him by his middle name Hawke. We have been calling him that even before we found out he was going to be a boy. His first week at home, all this baby wanted to do was sleep. I […]

Her words speaks to my soul. She invites you to consider the landscape of your own life, and what […]
One of the easiest thing for me to make for breakfast is oatmeal. It’s even easier when it’s prepared ahead of time. I try to make a few dishes on Sundays, I call it my Sunday-prep-time, for us to eat throughout the week. Now that the temps are heating up around here, it is best […]
I feel like I’m getting my baking mojo back. I didn’t bake much during the holidays, which usually is the busiest time in my kitchen, so maybe I’m making up for it now? It’s also because I’ve organized my pantry and now all my baking supplies are in one place and gathering all the ingredients […]
I’m surrounded with so many signs of springs. New flowers and pretty blooms, burst of yellow colors everywhere like these lemons I purchased at Costco. I wish we had a lemon tree, but since we don’t, I’ll be happy purchasing them at the farmers market or Costco. Any recommendations for lemon recipes? I think I’m […]
Before I met my husband, I’ve never had fresh and live Christmas tree. I grew up using a fake tree that we re-used every year. I guess it was easier for my dad to rely on a boxed tree that he can assemble easily. Having five girls in the house, he really did not have […]
Santa came early and Hawke opened his first present ever. At eight months old, he is old enough to grab and rip the wrapper and try to eat it. But he is too young to really know what a present really is, so my sweet little guy took his time grabbing each small piece of […]
