It has already been two weeks since his party but better late than never. All three of my sisters got to be at Briggy’s second birthday party, which made the day extra special. It was a small party with family only. Turns out that’s the way I like parties now. Low key and limited guest [...]

I love where we live. There is a nature reserve five minutes away from our house where buffalo and elk roam. Pretty cool, eh? They also have Old Missouri Town there. It is a place made to look like a Missouri town in the 1800′s. They do fun events there and this past Saturday they [...]

This past Saturday was one of those special days that you want to store deep in your brain and never forget. It is my plan to get the boys out and about this spring. I want them to discover new things and go to new events. So when I saw that Kansas City was having [...]

My new niece, Charlotte, arrived yesterday and I was quick to get to the hospital to meet her! She is precious and perfect and holding her did not give me baby fever at all. Oh, wait. That last statement isn’t true.

1. Brigham picked out his shirt for the first time yesterday. I had already put a shirt on him but he went into his closet and said, “choo choo shirt.” So I had to oblige. I took the shirt off and put the new one on him. Oh boy, choosing clothes for himself is a [...]

On Tuesday, we had to do the thing that no pet owner ever wants to do. We had to say goodbye to our sweet pug Reubin. For years, he had been unable to use his hind legs very well at all. But over the weekend they gave out completely and his kidneys were also failing [...]

Okay, it’s official. I like fall. I never used to. I know it’s like American sacrilege not to like fall. It got the cold shoulder from me by default. Fall is winter’s best friend. And I hate winter. So I have to dislike fall, right? But I cannot deny my love for fall anymore. It’s [...]

It was one of those magical weekends. The kind where you close your eyes and wish for another day just so the fun can continue. It was perfect autumn weather. Sun shining with a slight chill in the air. Not a cloud in the sky. Just blue up above and smiles down below. I think [...]

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.
