You were born in the wee hours of the morning on May 2nd. It was 2:22 a.m. to be exact. It felt as if I had waited forever for you to arrive. Labor began at 7 a.m. the day before. I writhed in pain during the last hours of labor. You, stuck in the wrong position, [...]

Brigham is 18-months-old now. Halfway to two. Can you believe it?! If I used only one word to describe our Brigham it would definitely be silly. He is such a silly guy. His many facial expressions crack us up on the daily. Brigham will still eat anything that is put in front of him and [...]

Sometimes I feel like I’m on a tour of my own life. There’s a tour guide with a mini-microphone and I’m sitting in the back of the bus watching him point out important landmarks. If you look to your right you’ll see your precious newborn. And over here to the left you’ll see your 15-month-old. Ummm, [...]

Just typing out one-year-old still feels so surreal. It’s taken me two (or three) extra weeks to write this post. But today, Brigham had his one year appointment at his new pediatrician’s office! There’s no denying it now =) Let’s jump right to it, shall we? His stats . . . Weight: 23 lbs, 1 [...]

Brigham Douglas, you are 11-months-old! How did we get here already? I’m not entirely sure but what a fun time in your little life. The countdown to your first birthday on May 2nd is really on now! I just can’t believe that this was you. Eleven short months ago. Wow. You are such a joy [...]

Actually, he will be 9-months-old tomorrow but I suddenly realized I had not done the monthly post for Brigham and I need it for his baby book. Mom fail! Part of the reason I haven’t done it is because my printer is out of ink and I need to make the cute shirt that says [...]

You are 7-months-old, lil’ buddy! You are my tiny baby. You can’t possibly keep growing. Stop it. Stop it now. Or you’re grounded until you’re 10. I’m kidding, of course. Kind of. So what are the exciting changes that have been happening this month? I mean, aside from the fact that your cuteness increases with [...]

My sweet little angel boy- you’ve been in my arms for half a year! This seems impossible but at the same time it seems impossible that you weren’t always here to begin with. You are figuring out the beginnings of how to get going in life. When we lay you down on your stomach you [...]

Briggy D. you are 5-months-old (nearly six now, I’m behind)! Believe it or not we’ve already been through a lot together in just five short months. But your smile still shines through and I’m so proud of you for hangin’ tough while we try to get you well! You haven’t had the easiest time so [...]

I'm a working mama to two of the most beautiful and sweet little boys. Landon is 3 1/2 and Brigham is 21 months. Yes, I survived a stint of two under two with a baby who didn't sleep for a year. And if I ever actually realized my dream of walking down the red carpet I'm sure there would be dirt on my dress. I'm just trying not to trip over Tonka trucks. This is where I write, laugh, dream, share, cry, and hope with honesty.
