The weekend arrives...

I love the internet. Love it. I love the connection to the "outside world" so to speak. I love seeing what's going on in different places, with different people, with different ideas. 

I stumbled across this blog and it is so hilarious (I'm assuming it's because I have a toddler in my life, sorry if you don't agree on the hilarity of it all). Also read the post titled "Grandma and Grandpa", especially if you are one. This blog is a mood-lifting gem...from the perspective of a toddler. Oh the truth that rings out!



Is it weird that we lay Ellie on a nursing pillow every night to go to sleep? When she was only a month old she caught a cold from Wren and her nose was very stuffy. One way to help a baby with a stuffy nose at night time is to elevate their head so they aren't flat on their back. We've laid her down that way ever since...it just looks more comfortable to lay on a soft pillow than a flat sorta hard mattress. 

These are pictures of her waking up in the morning, so she has slowly shuffled her way down the pillow and is now in the center of it. So cute..


I just finished Nora Ephron's book called "I Hate My Neck and Other Thoughts on Being a Woman". It was a great light read, and very funny. I didn't know who Nora Ephron was until a few weeks ago when I read that she passed away.
A Cup of Jo did a great post about her here. She was the lady behind the movies, When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle and Julie & Julia to name a few...I'm sure you've seen at least one of those!

Have a great weekend! I'm going for my first taste of High Tea for a friend's lingerie shower at the Hotel Macdonald, and hitting up the downtown market for some groceries. I love summer.
(Strangely enough I had this thought cross my brain about how nice fall/winter will be and I was looking forward to it. I'm so not a hot weather die-hard).

  1. Oooo, High Tea at the Hotel Mac! I look forward to a re-cap. One of my favourites at Taste of Edmonton was the Mac scones with saskatoon berry compote and clotted jersey cream that they seem(ed?) to have every year - seems very high tea-ish?
