It’s been a cranky-pants kind of… day? week? month? I don’t know. As much as I love this age in that the kids really “play” a lot more and are learning neat new things, it’s also a cranky age. New-ish walkers mean lots of losing balance and smacking heads. Adventuresome climbers fall off of things. [...]

Daddy and Rebecca’s Hospital Adventure
Last night marked our first unscheduled trip to the hospital with one of the kids. Around 9:30pm, Rebecca woke up crying. She does that sometimes, but I knew her teeth had been bothering her and she was just having a rough day, and it was definitely no-kidding-around kind of crying. so we decided to go [...]

Bum Foot

Wrenches in the plan
I want to tell you all about our trip, I really do. All about our 11 nights in three different beds in two different states. But in addition to the usual post-vacation craziness (dirty laundry, no food in the house, picking up the dog, fixing the lighting on the 900+ pictures I took), we’ve hit [...]

Ten Months Old
It’s the 3rd of the month – time for another “birthday!” Daniel & Rebecca are 10 months old today. They aren’t having the greatest day, as I believe they’re both fighting off a virus. Plus, as I was taking their chair pictures today, Rebecca took a header off of the chair. [...]
