You had to go and do that? Make me freakin' cry?!
My babies are 22 and almost 24....sometimes it's still a blur.....truth is we just can't make any of it stop...
We wouldn't have it any other way, would we?

holding on tight.
the one thing you hear about having twins, or little ones that are close in age is that the first years are a blur. things are very blurry around here these days. fuzzy around the edges. a fast moving blur of bottles and baths and ponytails. a loud mix of "MOMMY" and "I NEED YOU" and cries ...
Wow - is Ethan growing up or what? He's lost his 'toddler-ness'.......but he's as cute as ever.

Recovered + Crate Paper Portrait
Time and time again I have heard from so many of you about issues trailing 'round anxiety since the posting of last week's events. It's a tremendous relief to find that I'm not alone in my long withstanding acquaintance with the unpredictable ailment. I feel as though it's been burdening me fo...

This whole blog situation has been on my mind for awhile. I sat down and started it six years ago this month and at the time, had no idea what the heck to call this new blog thing...no clue...okay let's just use my initials (a blatant AE copy) and call it a day. Time flew by and the initials sta...

1. I have had way too many typos on here lately...sorry if you're reading my blog on a feed since I can't fix a post after it gets sent out. 2. Maybe it's because I'm rusty in the writing department after six weeks off of school...now that I'm back I have no excuse. 3. My first paper is due tomo...

Healed By the Same.
We danced in the kitchen to this song at least six or seven times in a row after the kids went to bed tonight. My favorite part of the song is towards the end when it says, "You can be hurt by love or healed by the same." Life hurts right now. But I'm smart enough to know that it won't always ...

Congrats on all the new technology.
Sorry that you have to go bald again....I never did get used to my head hitting the cold pillow at night! I'm with you on the wig,too......wore mine for a month or two and never went back...indoors I was bald...outdoors I wore a hat (cause I was not good at the scarf thing...).
Good Luck - thinking of you often as I follow your new journey...hang tough....

Sean and I have a tradition of opening our gifts from each other as the very last thing on Christmas night. After we tore through them he setup the camera on the tripod at the top of the stairs and ran down before the timer went off. (I'm wearing the super cozy blanket my mom gave me for Chris...
