Liddi Tag

Jaeda is our nurturer and just wants to sit and read Liddi books and smile sweetly all day. But when she's with Corban, watch out! They play fast and furious! Nephew Timmy (and his parents, what were their names, again?) visited this fall. Jaeda loved reading him books (see above). We babysat one evening for a total...

We wanted to visit our Wisconsin family last month. We hadn't visited since Thanksgiving of 2014. You know, I was miserable pregnant, then had an infant, and all of a sudden, it was almost a year later. Whoops. Thankfully, they've been so kind to come to visit us many times! We decided to take...

Since we have friends out the FW direction, we love to meet up with them for lunch and/or nap afterward. This day we got lucky and got to roam the zoo WITH those friends! It was a perfectly beautiful end-of-summer day. (We've been loving this weather lately.)...

One thing I like to do (when I find free prints coupons) is print pics for the kids to hang on their beds. You know how you hang pics of you and your friends in high school/college? I'm just trying to send subliminal messages like...

Chewing everything. (That onesie's now in the too-small bag.) Studying everything. Drooling everywhere. Too cool to smile. Learning to sit up. (She's a pro now.) Cheeks rounding out. (Just like Jaeda's.) Fast asleep. (We came in the door, and I laid her on the carpet while I brought the groceries, etc in. [Because you know if...

Last week, we had the rain storm to top all rain storms. At least 20 minutes of downpour. Liddi and Jaeda were still sleeping when the rain started. Corban and I ran out to the porch in awe of the sheer power of the torrent. Neighbor...

One day, there was a mom who didn't know where they were going. This didn't seem to bother the son, since he had been given a rare car snack. And the daughter tended to not worry about anything anyway. And the baby just wanted milk in her belly at all times, no matter...

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...

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...
