One Last SoCal Hurrah
After a year filled with amazing travel adventures, it's pretty hard to believe that we'll never again take a trip either without our little guy or without leaving him in the care of his grandparents (and missing him like crazy, I'm sure). So we called our vacation in...
1-2-3, Tap With Me
I have been on an "instrument song" rampage lately! It seems like I go through cycles when it comes to choosing song topics, and all of those instruments stashed throughout my studio are currently getting plenty of use. I went back to the basics -- good old rhythm...
Week 31
It was very fitting that at week 31, the baby was a size of a pineapple. We spent the week in California, and were surrounded by pineapple everywhere we went :) I'll be posting lots of vacation pics soon, but right now we're in recovery mode and just trying to get...
Week 30
Every week I write about how fast time is flying by, and that I can't believe how far along I am. But 30 weeks feels like such a huge milestone -- I'm 75% of the way there! This weeks is off to a great start so far. The weather has warmed up considerably, and I'm...
The Beginnings of a Nautical Nursery
This week we started making progress on the nursery after several delayed attempts. The first step was getting the carpet cleaned, which had to be pushed back two weeks -- first due to a sick puppy, and then thanks to 18 inches of snow (which inevitably resulted in...
Studio Turned Nursery
If you've followed this blog for a while now, then you've probably seen the evolution of my home studio. When my husband and I first purchased our house in 2009, I set up my studio in what quickly became my favorite room in the whole house. It made for a beautiful...
Week 29 (Happy Easter!)
Holy cow, this is the LAST week of 20s before I enter the final 10 weeks of pregnancy. 10 weeks. That's just mind-boggling to me. I am so grateful to still be feeling awesome, though that 3rd trimester exhaustion kicks in earlier and earlier each night, it seems....
Single and Teen Numbers
This is one of those songs I wrote on the fly about an hour before a session, but still find myself using consistently month later. The student for whom it was written is working on identifying numbers 1-20, but she was having trouble telling the difference between...
Happy Birthday, Sadie!
Our sweet baby turned 4 this week! Sadie is still very much a puppy in many ways, but over the years, she has matured from a hyper bundle of energy to a snuggly, cuddly and playful sweetheart. She loves to have 100% of our attention, and though she will have to share...
