365: Day 77- Uncle Larry


3/18/13: We found out on Monday morning that Uncle Larry had been admitted to the hospital over the weekend. 

I am incredibly thankful for Vanessa's generous heart in offering to take S&Z for a few hours onto her already-full plate. Julia was sick yesterday and I wouldn't have been able to visit Larry in the hospital without having someone to watch the kids.

They had a total blast with Thatcher and Oliver, baths and all!


Larry lost his painful fight with cancer shortly after we left the hospital last night. I am so thankful that we were able to say goodbye, along with Larry's dad, Derek's parents, and countless friends.

The world will not be the same without his loving and generous heart...

    I'm so sorry for your loss. Please pass our condolences to Derek's family.

    On a lighter note, I love the photos of the 4 kids in the bath.

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor...

We recently bought a house and moved about 20 miles outside of Boston. One of the changes that came along with a new commute and work schedule is that I have started making dinner for the kids every night, instead of just Friday-Sunday (Julia, our wonderful long-time nanny, historically fed them dinner Monday-Thursday). Derek and I still have opposite work schedules, which means that I have the kids without him 5-6 nights/week. In order to make healthy meals AND pack lunches while flying solo, at a minimum I need to have a well-stocked fridge and basic menu plan for the week. Even better is when I can get some cooking and/or food prep done on Sunday. Before I go to the gym on Sunday mornings I usually peruse some recipes in search of culinary inspiration. Today I came across a recipe that caught my eye on Budget Bytes . I was planning on hitting Trader Joe's after the gym, so I picked up the frozen roasted corn that is the cornerstone of this recipe. The first part of my foo...

Silas, 7/26/17

The context for this post is that S&Z started two weeks of daily swimming lessons in the outdoor town pool on Monday. The beginning of this week also happened to start with two of the coldest days of the summer!
