Gosh – it’s late March. Spring is here. We’ve been super sick. Our life is in four and three-day increments as we’re sharing our time between The Lodge. Ok – you’re caught up! Here are some photos to better tell the story…

Hannah is Eight Months Old

Our First Weekends at The Lodge
And just like that, The Lodge is done and we’ve begun splitting our time there. It felt like it took forever and ever to get to this point and now that it’s here, time is moving at warp speed. We’re getting into a new rhythm here in our little lives and we finally feel like …
Building the Lodge: Moving In
We’ve officially moved into The Lodge! A few weeks ago Alex’s parents joined us in our first stay at The Lodge where we unpacked and got settled. We waited a long, long time and worked tirelessly to make this a reality for our family and it finally happened – we moved in! The day we …
Ben is 2 3/4
We’ve really rounded the corner towards 3 and I know it’s going to come quickly. Since my last quarterly update on Ben we’ve gotten to see what it’s like having a 2 1/2 year old – I’ll tell you this much, it’s undeniably my new favorite age. So far in my 2 3/4 years of …

Building the Lodge: Prepping for Move In
The time has finally arrived for us to get ready to move into The Lodge! Our builder must have called in a lot of favors last week because the house is nearly done. As of Monday, most of the trades wrapped up and closed up their job at The Lodge. There are still a lot …
Kids Room
Well, it’s official, we have a “kids’ room” – not just Ben’s room anymore. If you’ve been to our house before you know it’s on the small side of the size spectrum. Our main floor is around 1,000 square feet and is where all the action happens and where life is lived. Our little 1909 …
Building the Lodge: The Home Stretch
I had the rare opportunity to go out to the lodge by myself last week. We needed to bring a bunch of light fixtures out so I stepped up to the plate and delivered them safely. Not only was I happy to get rid of part of the gigantic stack of boxes in the dining …
