  Dinner with Jack Tonight Jack came over while his parents went out for a nice steak dinner.  Jack’s little sister will be here in the next couple of weeks and so I’m glad they were able to go out and enjoy some couple time before the new baby arrives.  The boys had macaroni and … [Read more…]

  Our Little Mystery I do not and feel like I never will understand this baby.  Today was ridiculous.  Babies thrive on routine, right?  Not this one.  I try to do the same things and keep a fairly consistent schedule every day.  Some days she sleeps, some days she doesn’t.  Today she didn’t.  I lost … [Read more…]

  A Morning Walk We haven’t done this in quite a while.  And we hardly ever do it with Ginger, and today I remembered why.  Two people I passed said, “Well, you’ve got your hands full!”  It was true. The day was pretty uneventful.  I had to rock Betsy to sleep for all of her … [Read more…]

  5 Months Old Like most things in life that involve time passing I feel like the last 5 months have gone rather quickly, but at the same time I feel like they have been a very, very, very long 5 months.  Betsy celebrated today by taking a 2 hour nap this morning.  Woohoo!!  I … [Read more…]

Watching for Daddy When I know that Ben is close to being home I start talking to Carson about it.  I’ll say, “Guess who’s coming home soon?” or “Let’s go look for daddy!”.  He gets real excited and he’ll go look out the front windows.  Ginger almost always joins him.  He’ll say, “Daddy coming? No, … [Read more…]

Jack and Carson and their Super Dads Today we went up to Cypress to spend some time with some of our friends we met while in Amarillo who have all made their way to the Houston area.  We all live in the suburbs.  The only problem is that we live in Sugar Land, The Warrens … [Read more…]

  Sleepy Boy Carson fell asleep on the couch this afternoon a little before 1.  He usually goes down for a nap around 2, so I was surprised to look up from changing Betsy’s diaper and clothes and see him in this position.  I picked him up, carried him upstairs and put him in his … [Read more…]

  Big Blue Eyes and a Heart of Gold Ben helped me with the caption and now we’re listening to the song.  Anyway, we had another decent day.  Betsy took 4 naps, each about an hour.  Night time is something we’re going to have to work on next.  Last night and tonight we put her … [Read more…]
