The past month has had me in an especially not terrific place when it comes to feeling “good” about how I’m doing life as a wife, mom and friend. I end the day feeling like I haven’t accomplished a thing. I also feel guilty about the way I’ve reacted to my kids since I’ve had … [Read more…]
Third children sure do get the shaft! Sorry, Christopher. So far I have only written a 1 month post for him. I started a 2 and a 4 month post, but those remain drafts that aren’t likely to be finished at this point. Thankfully I documented that time in weekly posts, so all is not lost. … [Read more…]
We had a 2 month check up for Christopher last week. He is 24.5 inches “tall” (95%), weighs 12 pounds 10 ounces (57%) and his head is 15.5 inches (56%). He got 3 shots and one oral vaccine at his appointment and that made for a rough afternoon, but that evening was fine. He is … [Read more…]

What a fun 2 and 1/2 years we’ve had with this guy! We went to dinner the other day and while we were sitting there at the table, Betsy making a mess with her food and banging on the table, Carson playing with his toy cars and banging on the table to copy Betsy, I … [Read more…]
Since I’ve been keeping a daily diary of sorts I don’t have to remember everything about the last 2 months of our life with sweet baby Betsy, which is good because I couldn’t if I tried! Blogging daily (almost) has given me the ability to remember the day to day as I reflect back on … [Read more…]
