Long time no post! Well, real post anyway. This summer cold/allergies/sick as a dog thing that Baby D and I have been dealing with is intense. I’m thinking it’s a cold. The boys and I went “swimming” in the kiddie pool in our backyard on Friday and that night, I was feeling the beginnings of …
We’ve had a fun weekend with some of my (Mommy’s) family! Lots of good eating, family fun time, and more fighting and fussing than we would’ve liked! :o) It was a good weekend, despite the colds that three, possibly more of us have! The boys got a new swing set from Grammy & Grampy (a very …
I think I have e-mail OCD. I can somehow catalog e-mails and then mentally check them off when they’re responded to. I still remember an e-mail I sent to a dear friend about three years ago that was never responded to. property of careervanity.com I know, this is a very silly post, but …
Captain Fussybuckets is learning about forgiveness. He doesn’t really understand the concept, but he knows how to say “I forgive you.” He’s learning that even Mommy & Daddy make mistakes and when they do, it’s a good thing for him to forgive us. This morning, I (Mommy) was watering my plants and I accidentally tripped …
Baby D wants to crawl. You can see it in his eyes and hear the frustration in his voice. This morning, I sat down on the floor and put him on his tummy. He immediately popped up on his hands, but he can’t figure out what to do with his legs. (The Captain just used …

I am lucky to know some of the best dads around! My boys have an amazing father, two amazing grandfathers, and even an amazing great-grandfather! Not to mention the countless other wonderful males in their lives, we are truly blessed! Thank you, Fathers everywhere, who take care of and love your children, whether they’re related …
Our sweet Baby D turns 6 months old tonight at 10:25 PM! :o) I cannot believe he is already half of a year old! Was it really 6 months ago that we became a family of four? I know, I say that all the time, and will continue to say it. I still don’t believe …
Our new house is lovely. It is perfect for our little family of four. The backyard is fantastic for Captain Fussybuckets…there is a game room/converted garage for the youth group, quiet neighborhood (except for the bass at 2 AM on Sunday morning…), but there is one, teensy little problem. CROWS! Loud, obnoxious crows….along with …
