I know I haven’t posted any pics in a really really long time. But tonight I did post pictures of Allison’s softball party along with the last game, if you want to check them out - in the game, she is the one with the pink shoes. At the pool party, she was the wet [...]

could it be? Could it really be that my 7 year stint in diapers (not me, my kids - although who knows, we could be looking at a break before I am actually in diapers…break out the depends, her last kid is potty training) could be nearing an end???? Lydia has been in panties all [...]

Today baby Lydia (25 months old) chewed her first piece of gum. She chewed it for almost 2 hours and then threw it away. We are so proud.

Another floaty that is….Meredith is now swimming without a floaty..thanks to private swim lessons with Uncle Bruce over the holiday weekend! She can swim from one side to the other unassisted. She still makes me pretty nervous (she seems to work VERY hard at it!), so I ask her to stay close to the wall [...]
