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 […]
One of the things I was most nervous about before I had Calvin was what to do with Gwyneth when I needed to nurse Calvin. Would she allow me to sit and do my thing? Or would she become a little jealous and want my attention too? In preparing for the worst, I put together […]
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 […]
