So April and I have been friends for almost 9 years now. I can’t believe it’s been that long. The past 10 years of my life seem to have progressed at double speed compared to the previous ten. And I’ve heard the speed quadruples in the next 10. We’ll see. We met in a Parenting...
I can’t believe it’s been THIS long & I haven’t mentioned Loretta! I’ve talked to my mom, my sister, many friends…. Hallie even came to visit & we didn’t even introduce her to Loretta. Well…. we have a new member of our family. He’s tiny and furry and actually kinda cute. His name is Loretta....
We woke up early in St. George, packed up & headed to town for breakfast. We had seen a cute place the night before & decided to stop there. It was Yummy. Great food, great town and the people were SO nice. I think I notice that every time we drive out of L.A. People...
We packed up (pack it up, pack it in- as we always say), loaded Cornelius (that’s our car’s name) and were on our way by 8am. We were aiming for 7, but 8 works with a family our size. James was so awesome. He planned the entire trip- hotels, fun places to stop, where to...
We call her Chloe Girl for some reason. I started it early on & it stuck. I was feeling the need for a little photo shoot with Chloe since she’s doing so many new things… grabbing her toes (my favorite stage), saying dadadadada, tatatatata, and squealing with delight! She JUST got her first 2 teeth!!...
We met Shay & Bethany way back in 2003…ish. Hallie recommended Bethany as a babysitter for us when we just had Cade & Canyon. I can’t even remember having only 2 kids. What did I do with all my time? I remember being overwhelmed then. It was overwhelming- anything more than you’re used to is...
We are having a BLAST this summer. I was determined to enjoy every minute this summer & not let it pass us by. It feels like we’ve been on summer break for a LONG time. We’ve been to the beach several times, the pool almost every day, VBS (which feels like it lasted a month-...
Just a little sampling of our life in June 2010. A new outfit from Nana & Papa. Nana knows where to shop (Janie & Jack)- she’s the best! Chloe turned 6 months old. sigh. We go to the pool just about every day. The water is WARM. Brookey & Kennedy at the beach Auntie AA...
How long do you have to do something before it becomes tradition? I say twice. Well, we’ve done this every year for the past 5 years now and it’s one of my very favorite traditions. The annual Mother’s Day Photo. They bring me breakfast in bed & then I eat it & then we take...
While I was pregnant with Chloe I decided not to decorate a room for her. Since she’s my 5th I had thoughts like these: “why spend money to decorate a baby room again? I’m just going to change it in a few years anyway. She can just share a room with Kennedy & it’s already...
