(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/u108972587/domains/kamillamilligan.com/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Last night was one of those magical nights at our house where time seemed to stand still and endless opportunities for getting things done extended our evening and simultaneously energized us. After a day of errands, housework and time with baby (my head was much better; oh yay!) we put baby to bed and continued …
I’ve found myself using this expression of my husband’s lately as I watch our girl make her way in the world. She amazes me more and more as she grows up with every new thing she does, each emerging aspect of her character and personality. She’s walking – around things, a step here and there …
Still sick. Head still throbbing. It’s not as bad as yesterday but still definitely there. I bend down slowly and take corners at a snail’s pace. I am grateful, though. Time with my daughter continues to be wonderful, even if I sometimes crave a few minutes to myself. Which was provided by my husband today …
I watched a fun video today, courtesy of my mom, about a man who built an adorable house in 3 months for only a few thousand dollars. One of the comments on the video was that if we could only support land ownership (something like that), we could house so many more people. This idea …
My first real snow day of the year and it was magnificent! Not at all what I’m used to, but a delightful new normal. First, I now heartily endorse going to bed early with baby. I slept well, she slept well, and I woke up a bit before 7 rested and ready to go (incidentally, …

Other items recently leaving our home: Ironing board (let’s get real, okay? I don’t iron. Though we still do have the iron … for sewing projects!) Plastic food containers. Lots. Not-loved stuffed toy List of daily schedule with baby. I learned I’m not a baby scheduler. Book I finished reading last night: Dixieland Sushi More …
My decluttering over the last few days. Thursday: Husband decided to clean out the pantry. THANK YOU! He did an amazing job. We decluttered together and got rid of 3 lunch bags, assorted kitchen items (extra can opener, peeler, measuring spoon, 2 tin lids (I got rid of the tins earlier as I couldn’t find …
I’ve been getting inspiration lately from Declutter Daily. Did I mention her before? She’s from Virginia Beach, right by where I used to live (Norfolk) and she’s decluttering a minimum of one item from her home daily. Minimum. Plus instituting a “one in, one out” rule. Go big or go home!!! Some of her declutters …
Winter is arriving. First snow today. I have mixed feelings about this. Snow is beautiful, peaceful, fun. It portends the seasonal shift into cozy, indoors and nestling down life. I kind of love dressing up in long socks, lost of layers, toques and jackets, carrying a cup of tea everywhere. And there are few things …
