The pumpkin was a much better model than the toddler.


If your link isn’t on the moments page and you want it to be, please send me an email at: acommonplacelife@gmail.com.
Here’s hoping some of the moments in your day are lovely.

So sweet, thanks for sharing. I love laid back mornings where pjs last until lunch, naptime, and beyond. My girls have the same pjs, and lately Siena will only wear her "zoo" pjs.
Love that hat and look the pumpkin seems to like it too, he’s smiling!
Those moments look absolutely perfect to me.
I wish I could nibble on Quinn–just a little!–because he is so cute, but I know that would not be appropriate.
I will, however, have to formally reserve Jake for Bea.
Love both the hat and the pumpkin (particularly the eyes!). K x
Cute! Your page keeps changing
how so relaxing are your moments captured. smiley pumpkin and hat rocks! Happy halloween Amy!
A lovely set of moments! I especially love the breakfast in bed.
Will be adding some of our moments next week x
Gee, our whole day has been a moment. It is nearly 4 and even I’m still in my PJs. I am totally blaming it on croup/the flu and not my laziness.
lovely post. I had a great day, Absolutley nothing happened, but it was truely lovely.
Cute pumpkin. We also like morning like that, we call it "lazy sunday", our fave
happy Halloween to you if you celebrate it.
Love the hat. Makes me want to get back to my knitting, but I have a quilt to finish first. Seeing your beautiful projects is always such a boost!
That hat is great!!!! I’m sure it looks great on Quinn, too. The background is lovely!!!
i have a little thumb sucker, too. so cute!!! i love the hat on the pumpkin. that made me smile.
Love your moments–and the hat!
Just found you & your blog. Please don’t apologize for your comments about Martha! This is your blog, where you should feel free to opine about any and all subjects that come into your experience. Sometimes people get waaay sensitive in defense of something/someone they feel differently about and it’s a real shame. I’m quite sure Martha isn’t worried about it, so I wonder why others would? It’s like the time I stuffed two large round pillows into the seat of my pants and went as Jennifer Lopez for Halloween and a lady in the restroom called my costume "harsh". I don’t think Jen and her millions were hurt at all – But that’s just me. AND, she’d probably laugh if she saw the costume! It was funny.
(Anyway, great blog)
My daughter just sent me your site. I love it. I am 70 and everyday is a good day – just to get up and e-mail my daughters, I am ok. Some time ago I knew it was more important to say "yes" when a friend called and said "do you want to —-" rather than finish my laundry or whatever chore I set for myself. BYW I am not a fan of MS. I have always used my mother’s molasses cookie recipe dated 1947 but this year I am trying a new one – yours. Thank you for your comments and blog. AMEN.
I have just discovered your Moments project via Sarah at Red Gingham and Floss at Troc Broc and Recup, and agree with your sentiments entirely! And I love your photos of moments of domesticity – one of the reasons that I started blogging was to appreciate and capture the joy of the everyday, so would love to join in.

I just found your blog through google reader recommendations. You hooked me with your Martha post – I am a Martha lover, but I totally agree with everything you said.
Now tell me more about this little car quilt. I LOVE it.
