We discovered Luke’s first loose tooth several months ago…probably in early spring. It got pretty wiggly in June, and Matt and I predicted it would be out by the 4th of July.
Fast forward to one week ago, when the tooth was still. in. his. mouth. And while it had gotten much looser, and [...]

Well, it didn’t take long. Today, Luke forgot to bring his lunch to school! It was packed and ready to go, and in his excitement to get on the bus, he left it near the door. I left immediately after he did with the two other boys to take Bennett to preschool [...]

I got a fun phone call this week…my sister-in-law, Andrea, called to tell us that she’d just had her ultrasound, and yes, my first niece is on her way, due January 14th!!
I was at the mall today and couldn’t help but glance at the other side of the Gymboree store…can you believe how cute this [...]

I needed a couple of minutes without a baby underfoot. And, though he asks 18 times a day, I can’t say yes every time he wants to watch Elmo. So I put him in his high chair with a (blessedly, washable) marker and a piece of paper. Though I tell him to color on his [...]

About a month ago, I sent out this totally lame birthday invitation via email to our family:
Hi everyone!
For Bennett’s birthday, I think we’re just going to invite all of you over to our house on Sunday, April 5th in the afternoon for snacks and cake. Maybe things will get really exciting and Michon will [...]

Luke really needed a haircut, so today when I got home from my sister-in-law Michon’s baby shower (will post about that later…I can reveal my crafty surprise!) I convinced him that it was time. We did his, and the whole time I was cutting his hair, I was thinking about Jack Henry and his crazy [...]

As if I don’t write about enough kind of gross stuff on here.
I’ve mentioned recently that Jack Henry is working on his bottom one-year molars. It’s been a difficult last few days for him (and me, as he’s been glued to my hip), made worse by the fact that as of noon yesterday, he [...]

Jack Henry turned 15 months on Saturday…and that very day, he started taking a few steps here and there on his own. He’s more confident than he was a month ago when we got him to take a step or two for a bottle of Mountain Dew, but he’s still crawling 95% of the [...]

Over the weekend, Jack Henry surpassed the 14 month mark, and there are so many things that I need to jot down to remember!
* He LOVES to “play” the Wii with his brothers and dad. They give him a remote and he will sit there with them for as long as they’re playing. It’s so cute [...]

Jack Henry has entered a fun (not) new stage where he only wants to feed himself. Not that he was getting fed much from a spoon by an adult, but if I wanted to give him applesauce or yogurt, until a week or two ago, he was still OK with that.
Now, he NEEDS to have the [...]
