Levi. The Child Who Gets Into Everything.
Levi, in case you couldn't tell by the title of this post, gets into everything. He's been crawling since Christmas. He's been pulling himself up ever since he was able to crawl over to a worthy piece of furniture. Or pant leg. Or unworthy piece of furniture which...
A Family, Reunited
Aunt Sassa came all the way from Australia just to feed my baby. Shannon looks bored with Trey. Olivia drinks milk. The Daddy gets swallowed up by light. Levi ponders the meaning of life. Olivia is impressed with herself from nabbing the last doughnut hole. "You're...
I Now Officially Have Three Children.
For the first six months, I really didn't see much of a difference. It still felt like I only had two children. And this warm fuzzy little clingy immobile thing that slept a lot. But somewhere around Christmas (yeah, about when I stopped posting regularly) he became...
All Things
Yesterday, I was a horrible Mommy. Yesterday, I had horrible children. And I was so mad at God about it, I didn't speak to Him all day. He kept trying to talk to me. But I turned a cold shoulder. He can do all things, why wasn't He making me a better Mommy? Why...
All or Nothing
I've figured something out about myself recently. I have an "all-or-nothing" attitude. And I've got it bad. When I blog, for example, it's all or nothing. Either I blog everyday or I don't blog ever. I show loyalty towards brands and stores in the same fashion....
Mommy Growth
As I lay here on the floor, a stuffed tiger at my right arm and a deserted castle by my right leg, a baby crawls over me. I don't think I ever just laid on the floor with Olivia. I didn't know what to do with a baby and was too proud to admit it. I knew how to cuddle...
We Have a New Van
When we added our third carseat, we got our first van. Josh's family was kind enough to trade us their caravan for our sedan. We loved that van. Sure, those Missouri roads had long ago stolen all four hubcaps. And my two-year-old had not-so-long ago stolen the rear...

Levi Plays, Too.
Hey guys! Hey, hey, can I play? Guys? Can you hear me? HEY, I'M TALKIN' TO YOU. That's right. Movin' in. Oooh, a castle? Awesome. I love playin' with castles. Is that a Barbie, too? Aw, thanks Brother, I love you, too. Is it me, or is this castle moving? Sweet! Do...
To San Diego? Or Not To San Diego. That Is The Question.
Before we left for Grandma's for the holidays, Josh was offered a job in San Diego. Pros: - It sounds like an awesome job. The guy said the retention rate is 99% and it's a big company. Josh'll be able to move around within the company to work on pretty much...
