(First time to see an elephant.  I asked Frankie before bed about his favorite part of the day.  He said, elephant and monkey.  He loved the zoo today) Dave has been out of town this weekend so I’m on my first big run with being the mother of 3 and holding down the casa.  I…

Some major progress being made here but also some major regression!

There are two sides to every story and there are two sides to every bed.  Two years ago Dave and I made the leap from a queen size bed to a King.  If you are getting married right now and are buying your first bed, my best advice would be to bypass the queen and…

I should be used to hair issues.  I grew up with them.  Take a teen who has curly hair and wants it straight and there were my issues.  Funny thing is that today I LOVE my hair. I wish it was even curlier.  I’m sad because Emma just has a bit of curl and Izzie’s…

Just folded these up this morning.  All my children and now even Frankie get tucked in bed each night with these  and they walk down the stairs each morning with them.  For Emma it’s been 7 years, Izzie three and Frankie a few weeks.  I was a blanket person.  I think I even went off to…

I’m spending the day with these two amazing kids above.  We are really starting to get into the groove of things around here.  I’m feeling more settled and I think Frankie is too.  I feel a Target run on the horizon! The strangest thing is that for the past 2 years I have been following…

I’ll never truly understand what it is inside a child that allows them to accept and hear things that stir them to compassion and concern.  I should not be surprised.  I have seen my own daughter without fail, ask about Sterling almost every night and pray for him.  She is so concerned about him. (Sterling is 6 and…

My friend Courtney made this video for us from past pictures and footage over the past few weeks. .  I’m sure you all are getting sick of seeing pictures and footage.  This really summed up for me our journey in pictures.  This is home.  Our family is now where it belongs.  I’ve cried every time I watch this. …

Thanks Jason and Sarah for capturing our first moments together!
