Eli Says

Eli is about to take a bath... "Mom, I'm almost 7. I don't need you to help me in the bath anymore." Hand me the tissue. Sad mama.

Adam & Sophia Sundsmo

Nick and I had 7 first cousins get married over this year... Last night was wedding #7, whew! 








An Eli Sundsmo Exclusive

I love when he just spends his days building things for hours... He was so proud of this tower.

A Pirate's Life

Nick and Eli got to go for a ride on a real Pirate ship yesterday. As you can imagine, Eli was quite thrilled!

See! Feeling better!

Showered. Hair brushed. And NOT wearing jammies. We made it!


Family FaceTime

Well, Aiden is finally feeling better today. I think we have made a turn toward feeling much better! 

Nick and Eli are having a wonderful time together in Florida. Love being able to see their faces when we chat in yet evenings. Miss them terribly but so glad they are having a great time!


FaceTime with Big Papa

How cool?! My Grandma got an iPhone, so now we are able to FaceTime with my Grandparents. What a treat for us all!


A Morning in Clearwater

Nick, Eli and family (they are in FL with Nick's mom, step-dad & siblings) enjoyed the morning in Clearwater today. It's just north of where they are staying. There is an aquarium there as well they were able to visit today. Last time we were there it was closed for filming a movie.

Flowers Help

My hubby knows how to cheer me up.




Best Daddy

My husband is the best Daddy! He always lets Eli bury him in the sand... Makes Eli's day!


Florida Sunsets

Eli and his cousin Luke got to enjoy a beautiful Florida sunset their first night. It looks like the weather is going to be perfect for swimming and lots of fun on the beach!


Thank God (or Steve Jobs) for FaceTime

Thankful we can FaceTime while we are apart... Missing each other!

Boo Hoo

We were all supposed to fly out to Florida today. But Aiden and I fell ill yesterday. Aiden has a fever, ear infection and today began puking, too... Such a bummer because I was so looking forward to quality time together... But I'm thankful that Aiden is ok and that Eli and Nick were still able to make the trip.

18-Month Old Crib Escapee

Someone busted out of their crib at nap time. I heard two big booms followed by crying... I heard the same when his big bro did the same. I knew exactly what had happened. Oh, dear?!

The Lego Newspaper


Eli asked that we send this to the people that make the Lego magazines so he gets in the Lego newspaper.

It's a Lego crab.

Moms by Day. Rocker Girls by Night.

So much fun tonight with some neighbor-friends at the Tesla/Foreigner/Def Leppard concert!



FaceTimed mom and dad during the show, too!



This guy was adorable and had a blast!







Perfect Spot to Sit

Aiden found himself the perfect little spot to sit... 


Soccer - Team Fire!

We are having so much fun watching Eli play soccer this fall. Many of his St. Rose classmates are on the team and the coaches are even St. Rose parents. Love Soccer Saturdays!







Team Fire rules!!!







Sleepy Little Sundsmo

Watching a little Sunday football with Daddy can be exhausting...
