It’s official. Nate is crawling. Belly off the floor, determined look in his eye, the whole 9 yards. The whole 9 yards at about 200 miles an hour, like crawlers do. Last night the twins wanted to see pictures of themselves as babies. My favorites are always those with them in only their diapers. Which...Continue Reading
Before I became a mom, I expected certain decisions to be hard. Breast or bottle? Stay home or work part-time? Where should my babies sleep? Where should we live? Where should they go to school? Oh my. If I had known this last decision would require more of my energy THAN ALL OTHER DECISIONS COMBINED,...Continue Reading

Gone are the snuggling days of breastfeeding.Yes, even Sam can’t be comfortable like this.Yes, we’re just gonna go with it.Happy Wednesday! – Posted using BlogPress from my iPhoneContinue Reading
I’ve written about hand-me-downs before. And I’ve written about strollers before. Today’s post is about both. We may have FINALLY found our stroller utopia.

For our crew, saddling up a bike to ride the few streets to the park is equal to a record-breaking attack...Continue Reading
This picture (courtesy of my m-i-l last time she lunched with Catie) was my day today. I had lunch with Catie at her school, right after I read to her class. As usual, the food was good (sorry, love cafeteria food). But the company was better. Catie has had a great year, and I’m so...Continue Reading
So, building on yesterday’s post, I just can’t have the whole family dressed up (in coordinating outfits) without photographing it. Here we are in all of our green glory! Happy Spring, friends and family!Continue Reading
No, the tattoo on Catie’s shoulder is not a forever one. It’s airbrushed on from the HoeDown at her school this weekend. No, I don’t think the girls will let me dress them alike forever. Or even much past this time. No, Sam will not fight pictures forever. (Please, Lord.) No, Nate won’t always be...Continue Reading
