Private Nook

Datty and the babe horsed around during the days and momma joined the fun in the evenings… Except weds eve when I had the night off to play creative with a bunch of other hens. I didn’t get much accomplished but am working on a pattern focused sewing project. The weekend was stuffed with massages, unloading furniture, dinner parties and Datty-mommy daytime date! We enjoyed a few hours at the mutter museum of medical anomalies which was amazing followed by ‘Lucy’, a new Luc Besson movie- also amazing. We followed that up with dinner with Hayley, Kris and the babe. Fantastic end to a sunny, fun weekend.

The Datty started the week off at the Zoo with Hagan. They spent the entire day roaming the grounds. Then, our friend invited us to join her and boys at an outdoor movie with concert just for kiddies! It was over the top! The next day Datty spent some time at the grounds of a PreK school that we are interested in that has the kiddies in nature pretty much all of the time. Hagan absolutely LOVED the frog pond there. AAAAND THEN! Datty found a philly family event that appears to be all summer long in front of the art museum where there are free kid activities from mini golf to pink sand pits to water fun features. I joined them after work and we exhausted ourselves in the late day sun. Finally, we finished off the week by driving up to visit auntie Tiff and uncle Kris in western Mass. It was stunning. And Hagan is pooped. As am I. Enjoy.

The treehouse master is back with babe in arms. We spent the weekend lounging, doing laundry, yard sales and hiking in the philly beauty. Hagan is so dang happy to cuddle up to papa again. I’ve been updating my style since it’s new to me to dress for warm weather+biking+work all at once. So, I’ve been playing dress up. I’ve also been crafting gifties for friends. So, Enjoy all these pix.

We spent the weekend in Nashville with all the treehouse men. Hagan was over the moon with daddy. He was a terrific travel companion and quite the busy bee trying to discover all that Nashville had to offer but was overexcited and fell into long, snuggly naps time and again. The treehouse men are working overtime as usual racing the clock for grand finale. SX found some estate sales to peruse and I went thrifting while the men were in the trees. Hagan and I are back home doing the daily grind while Daddy finishes to return weeks end.

Hagan has been all over Philly playing in any kind of water feature. We played with Beth in the Whissahickon and Hayley took him to Fairmount park and some spray parks…and the backyard kiddy pool too. That baby/toddler/kiddo is really developing a sweet personality. I just want to snuggle/smooch on him all freakin’ day. We will be visiting the treehouse build this weekend… we are both super excited to see the datty.

We had quite an adventure trying to get out of town. With car problems to hurricane storms we made it out a day late… But it was well worthwhile. Grandparents and auntie/uncle were there to greet us and we traveled to The Lake for a baby shower complete with new baby and ALL the relatives. It was a wonderful holiday. We came back needing to catch up on days of sleep! Hagan enjoyed cousins, swimming and funning with Grampa.

And so momma and son adventures are underway. First stop, Indiana. We will head to the lake to celebrate new babies and 4th of July! Pix to come. Until then,

Nuthin terribly exciting to tell this week. Just humming along in the sun.

After a week of father-son fun at home, we blazed out of philly three hours north to a state park that touts 21 waterfalls in just under a two mile hike! It did not disappoint. We ended the trip at a nearby (to the waterfall hike) beach and made some new friends. A lovely weekend, indeed.

The reuniting has been super squishy sweet. Hagan is definitely happy to have his daddy. It’s so sweet it makes my teeth hurt! We strolled through a new (to us) park this weekend and played house. Hagan found our spices and tried on some cinnamon. I must say, he smelled delicious. The entire weekend was filled with perfect sunny days and the subtle start of fireflies!!!!! Although, now it’s raining without cooling….And I gave myself a haircut!
