Judah is just over 2 months old and growing bigger and cuter ever day (at least we think so). He weighs over 19 pounds now and that is evidenced in the size of these amazing thighs. He LOVES to smile and there is something special that happens when he smiles. His eyes have so much [...]

is having your 3 year old son come to bed at 1am only one short hour after you’ve gone to sleep and having him awake and thrashing around in bed when at 2am you hear your daughter barfing. Then to have your husband fully wake you with the knowledge that your daughter has a fever [...]

This summer has been unusual, abnormal or atypical, to say the least! We are trying to keep things as normal moving along in a fun and relaxed way while at the same time taking the necessary precautions to keep things as safe and healthy as possible.

Alright, so there is no way that under “normal” circumstances that I’d have ever gone this long without posting a ton of pics of our newest, sweet, little man, but these are far from “normal” circumstances. We have TONS of things to share about Geli, about Judah, about our family, about many other things; but…….it [...]
