I love the idea of a lazy Sunday morning. I think about the boys piling into our bed while we dreamily snuggle. This morning started out a bit like that. Then Elijah started his “milkfrogging.” He breastfeeds one side, says, “udder yide,” and hops over, repeating that routine half a dozen times. Then Isaac pops…

Three Bigger Littles
I’m in so much denial that my firstborn will be 5 in about 20 days. That means, gulp, in 2 months my youngest will be 2 and in 4 months my middle will be 4! There’s a mental hurdle for me about them being school-aged, as if that’s one foot out the door. Yes, that’s…
Warrior Class
I had a stroke of genius the other night. The boys were feeling rowdy and restless and were starting to attack each other in a feisty way. I dashed out to the garage and retrieved Brian’s and my Tae Kwon Do sparring gear, and padded up the big boys, and I slid some bag gloves…
Project Shrinkydink

Yes, I’m alive. I haven’t posted since Aunt Ashley (my sister) moved in! And can I just say, I LOVE having another wife around (ha ha). She is extraordinarily popular with the boys, too. She’s popular to the point that I had to put stickers on our hall clock and tell Ian not to go…
If Kids Ruled the World…
Based on this small sample of recent memorable quotes/moments, the world would be pretty interesting, and probably a lot more fun if we did it their way: Ian, fiddling with one of my bras: Mom! I just unhooked your backpack nipple thing! Ian: Mommmmm! I’m ready for a wiiiiiiipe! Brian: Ian, mom is busy cooking,…
Muddy Buddies
Brian decided the boys were lacking a mud pit, so this afternoon, he rectified that. Now they can be real boys.
