We made the decision together. Me, you and your daddy. We talked about it and discussed it and covered every angle. We all decided that it would be the best option for you. The best decision to get you ready to venture out on your own next year and prepare you for Kindergarten. Preschool. We […]

I wondered when I found out that I was pregnant with a second baby if my heart was big enough to hold both of my boys. I love my oldest so much that it hurts and the thought of being able to love another child…another boy especially…didn’t seem possible. I told myself that if it […]

2:00 am. Five minute feeding and then back to sleep. Fingers crossed that we get at least a three hour stretch this time. 4:30 am. Two and a half hours. It’s better than one hour or one and a half hours. Time for him to eat again. Seven minute feeding and he’s back asleep. Crawl […]

I have so many things that I want to talk about…to blog about. I want to tell you all that Noah started Preschool on Monday. And I want to go into detail about how I’m feeling about having my biggest baby gone three days a week. How my heart is breaking the tiniest bit because […]

When you’re a child, the world just seems…easy. Play time. Nap time. Bedtime. Breakfast. Lunch. Dinner. Good behavior. Bad Behavior. Noah’s going on four and a half years old. His world is slowly starting to become a bit more complex. He’s learning that bad choices bring about consequences. And consequences aren’t always fun. Just like […]

I am a BIG dork when it comes to the New Year. I hate the word “resolution” because it simply implies that you are writing down (if you even write them down) some goals for the year…only to get two weeks into them and throw in the towel. I don’t make resolutions. I set goals. […]

Last year was the first year that I took on the One Word Challenge. I didn’t link up with anyone, didn’t join some big group of people who were sharing and supporting and encouraging each other to live out said word or anything like that. I just picked a word. Something that represented everything that I […]

Ummm, hello 2013. Where did you come from? Take a second to let that thought sink in. Where on EARTH did 2012 go?! At the end of 2011, I took some time to reflect and look back on what the year had brought our way. In 2009, I took the time to look back and […]

I love looking back at my photos at the end of the year. Not only to remember what all we accomplished and achieved as a family and as individuals, but like any mother, I like to look back and see how much my boy (now that will be boys) have grown. When I saw Ashley’s […]
