Weekend in Photos + Book Signing.

oh how i love refreshing the toy supply with something in storage. off to find the playmobil treehouse...:)

Thank you for sharing these glimpses into your everday life. It's especially refreshing to see you share something as mundane as doing the laundry. Guess I better go get started on my own now. I just wish my laundry room were decent enough to take a picture.

The pics are great! Thanks for sharing.

Ali,
Hi! Love your blog! You inspire me! I'm wondering if you are going to be having a '08 Life calendar this year - would love one!!!!! If you could update us all on this - I'd really appreciate it! THANKS!!!

Please come to OHIO!!! We would love to see you in the Buckeye State!

Hi Ali,
Love to see your everyday pictures about you, chris and simon.. because you have constantly shared so much about your family...I've always felt like 'part of your family' whenever I read abt it / see pics of it :)
Yup... agree with you.. being thankful for everything we have...
Since I am located in Singapore.... it's impossible for me to be there for the book signing.. although I wish 1 day i'll get a chance... nonetheless, have an awesome time!

my punkboy got a train table, and I've set it up 3 different times, those tracks are addictive and so much fun, thanks for sharing

Ali
My son will be 10 next Monday & we finally got rid of his train table this past summer (we gave it to a friend who was opening a home daycare) & we still kept several trains & a little track as momentos. I remember my husband & I spending lots of time making tracks after our little guy had gone to bed. We miss those trains! They were great stress relievers.

Ali it's so fun to see in your world. We also have thomas loves over here. Oh and PS... I posted soething about you today. hope that was ok ;)

Funny, I was reading your Life Artist book this weekend, and took a series of Day in the Life photos on Sunday that remind me of yours! I know you know how much you inspire others, but here's yet another reminder.
On the flip side, I really enjoyed your sister's blog. I'll have to check back often to live vicariously through her fashion! Another inspiration...

I love your book... Where can I find the page protectors by Platte Productions? A Google search was unproductive. Jacquie, Miami, Florida

Interesting to see what a wired keyboard looks like for the iMac - I chose the wireless one but it doesn't have the numerical pad or the home pageup/page down buttons... takes some getting used to!

great pics, reminds me of my playing with my brother and his train for hours....

i love that picture of Chris at the top! I just built a big Thomas track for my son too. I like to built it bigger and better each time. Something I like playing with too!

Great photos. Your sister is the coolest chick on the planet.

WoW beautiful work area!
Your blog is always a pleasure.
Regards from Italy.

Ali I was completely taken back at the 5th photo. I mean it's not like we don't see Simon all the time...you post his photos regularly...but something about that photo...he looks so mature...wow...I dunno...it just hit me...and I'm not even his mama. ;-)

LOL, omg, so glad to see that I'm not the only one who obsesses with my sons train layouts :) I need more connectors ;)

I had to laugh at your husband having more fun with the toys - I've been making my DD doll clothes just so I'll be able to change the outfits! Life with kids is full of wonderful opportunities for fun!
