This styling is because he has sisters. This is why James is thankful for our boy friends. Writing his name everywhere in everything. (Okay, I totally helped with this.) Proof that he still naps! (1-2x per week.)...

On Jaeda's birthday, the zoo threw a party for their members. Jaeda was certain it was for her. James took off work, a few family members drove down, and we made a wonderful day of it! Aunt Hoopie still has a broken foot, but all the...

Last month, Liddi started moving in her sleep. I definitely laid her horizontally this night. She smiles and smiles and smiles. She's been smiling more for me than anyone else (hmm I wonder why). So much so that when we hear her waking up, Corban and Jaeda fly up the stairs ahead of...

James made us a "hipster badge" on the reverse of the scary tiki man boogie board. I wanted something with our name and year, and he took it from there! I absolutely love what he did! He created a stencil, cut it out, and spray...

Having Mother's Day close to your birthday (ohmyword am I talking about my birthday again?!) is the best. A week's worth of celebrations or extra sweet nothings (like drinking juice for breakfast mmm). This Mother's Day, we felt like celebrating with another family, a mom whose...

This little girl with the round face (that's only getting rounder) is a nursing and sleeping champ. She's not, however, a very good awake champ. It's been over a week of general waketime fussiness. I'm thinking a growth spurt? So much eating. So much sleeping. (So much fussing.) But in her happy awake moments (which...
