I’d like you all to meet my new best friend. Actually, we used to be uber close about two years ago. We’d spend a few hours each day together, not necessarily all at once, but sporadically throughout. And during this time, we REALLY got to know one another. But then as time went on, we […]

I hope he adores her as much as she adores him some day… I love these two.
(Composed last weekend) I am still running on “high.” I just got home from my FIRST overnight trip away from Baby Cal and Gwyn… BY. MY….SELF. And all I can say is….. Wow. I had so many emotions running through me this weekend I don’t even know where to begin! One of my best pals […]
What a COMPLETELY different experience! The adventure from Spokane to Reno this time around with Calvin was a Buh-REEZE compared to my experience flying solo with Gwyn a couple years ago. While traveling solo with my little man still made me nervous, I tried to prepare as best I could this time around, learning from my […]
Over Memorial Day weekend the family and I went on our first “Family of Four” road trip. I tried to be as prepared as possible and packed everything ahead of time with each child’s necessities in their own little suitcase so that there wouldn’t be a lot of fishing around for items. I even checked […]
Today Cal and I are on our way via the airway to Reno. Just he and I. Him and me. The two of us. And I am NERVOUS!!! The last time I traveled alone with an infant it was one of the WORST DAYS OF MY LIFE. Absolutely horrid!! The Hubby, Gwyneth and I were […]

I did as much research on reactions to vaccines and pain relief as I could, and I pretty much planned the whole day around this horrible event. I also had a very sick feeling in my stomach. I dressed […]
Already two months old! And I LOOOOOOVE these smiles!!! They make waking up in the night worth it. Okay, no. They don’t. I lied. Yes, they’re very cute… but I would prefer sleep right about now. “Posing for these pics makes me want to hurl.” “Hiya!” “Peek-a-boo!” “What, not cute!?” “Two months… no big whoop.” […]
When I was pregnant with Calvin, I was constantly picking the brains of friends who had more than one child. “What was life like day-to-day? What was the hardest part of having more than one? What do you do when both children need your attention?” were a few questions I would ask. I have a […]
Getting real ducks to come to Gwyneth’s birthday party was something I thought would be a stretch. I did a little googling and didn’t find many sources for “baby ducks” around the area at the time, so I decided to post a Craigslist ad. It was titled something like, “Baby ducks wanted to rent for daughter’s birthday […]
