We celebrated Jimmy’s birthday on Friday and Mordecai got him a matching shirt. The first of many matching outfits?! I hope so because it was adorable.
As a surprise date for Jimmy’s birthday, I booked a pottery lesson for us. When we painted ceramics for Mother’s Day, he mentioned wanting to try a pottery class. (more…)
I’m coming at you with yet another random post title! Let’s start with stuffed cabbage. Have you ever had it? I had not had it or heard of it until I met Jimmy. It was something he grew up eating on the regular.
I was asking him recently if there were any special dinners he wanted me to make and stuffed cabbage topped the list! I first posted his mom’s recipe for these delicious cabbage rolls in 2011 (!!) and when I made them this weekend, I was filming a vlog of our day and managed to take an updated picture, too.
So, the video below shows how I make them (starting at 2:46 in case you don’t feel like watching the randomness of our family 😉 ), the recipe is here, and the photo above is what they look like!
The vlog was fun to film and even more fun for us to watch! The last time I filmed a day in our life was in November, four days after Mordecai was born. A lot has changed since then… but also not much. The season is different, but our chaos is the same! Mordecai and Sadie are a little bit older, but still so fun and sweet 💜
Last but not least, we have our pets. Jimmy took a picture of Niva sitting in the yard and I think she looks downright majestic! She had been groomed that morning and was sporting a cute bandana.
Later on, we were playing with Sadie at our kitchen table and Malcolm casually hopped into Jimmy’s arms. He also looked majestic… or maybe like a mob boss? A mini panther?
All right, with that randomness off my chest for the day, I am going to get this day started. My niece is coming over to play with Sadie and I have a dentist appointment. I’m not looking forward to visiting the dentist, but excited for Sadie to have some cousin time!
