The babe, the boy, and me. What i love about christmas. On: Sunday, December 25, 2011. Well, I’d consider today a success by really any measure. I think he played a sum total of 7 hours today. I think he played a sum total of 7 hours today. The grandparents showed up around 1:30pm, and we started the party all over again…. snacks, and eggnog, and home-made lasagne. We didn’t eat until 5:00pm! All told, it was a wonderful day with my lovely family. Merry Christmas everyone! Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

eleven | the babe, the boy, and me
https://erikadee.wordpress.com/2012/11/04/eleven
The babe, the boy, and me. The boy turns nine. On: Sunday, November 4, 2012. I am a few days late with this post. The truth is, sadly, that I almost forgot. I blog so infrequently now that I truly almost let the occasion pass without writing a note to The Babe. This? This makes me sad. Am I really such a busy person that I’d forget to write? Am I that much “not present”? Sigh* But, good news is, this is not about me… and I did remember. This is about The Babe, who just turned 11 years old. Notify me of n...

eight | the babe, the boy, and me
https://erikadee.wordpress.com/2012/02/28/eight
The babe, the boy, and me. On: Tuesday, February 28, 2012. I have been thinking about writing this post for a couple of days now. I can’t seem to articulate what I want to say or how to begin saying it. The Boy turned 8 years old on 25 Feb. E.I.G.H.T. He is so polite. He prefaces every request to me with “Mommy, when you are done with , can you please? I love you, little man. Thanks for making my life bright… and thanks for calling down the stairs to me every so often… “Mommy? 1 Response to "eight".

Monpon: September 2010
http://monpon.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monpon {Art, Writing and Family life}. Thursday, September 02, 2010. Cotton skirt with lining I sewed using one of my favorite skirts as a pattern. First attempt at knitting since a long time, the simplest stitch possible! Salt, straw and watercolor painting, super fun with Maia. A little apron/smock that I dyed and stitched on a pocket for Maia's painting explorations. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A stitch in dye. Today, Chin Up. Center Camp is 671 miles away. Stories that take up space.

Monpon: November 2010

Monpon {Art, Writing and Family life}. Saturday, November 27, 2010. It's called "Spinal" and it is an accordion style cloth book made from digitally designed fabric with iron-on transfers, vintage lace and lots of hand stitching. Dang, making your own binding ain't fun. Victorian paper doll images (transfers) that I found on google :). I scanned in fabric, thread and a few images from JB's anatomy books. Cells and spines and a little layer of silk organza. Friday, November 19, 2010. A stitch in dye.

Monpon: Flooding, Again
http://monpon.blogspot.com/2010/07/flooding-again.html
Monpon {Art, Writing and Family life}. Monday, July 26, 2010. Here is some footage of the flooding in my neighborhood:. Shorewood Rapids - part II. We had about 6 inches of rain water in our basement and have finally dried out. We had water in with the dry clothes in the dryer and found our fans and dehumidifier floating in water. They have all dried out and amazingly still work. We threw out many items that were ruined and are still sweeping up the dirt and bleaching the floors. Tuesday, August 03, 2010.

Monpon: Stella
http://monpon.blogspot.com/2010/07/stella.html
Monpon {Art, Writing and Family life}. Friday, August 06, 2010. She died almost six weeks ago, shortly after Maia and I found her laying by the back door with her tongue hanging out and tremors shaking her little head. A seizure, perhaps a stoke. Perhaps a series of small strokes. We'll miss you Stella Luna! Even the licking and the shedding and the moping and whining. You were a good dog, Stella. And we loved you very much. Of course you have all of the empathy I own. Monday, August 09, 2010.
