It’s been a long time since I sat down to even think about writing a blog post. Ayla recently turned 3 months old and I can’t believe it. We’ve had a hard few months since she was born. Kenley and Blake were both happy tiny babies. Blake was the happiest and Kenley could usually be… Continue reading It’s been a while
We’ve been so busy with our newest addition, I haven’t had much time to write (or do anything else). I introduced her over on Facebook but neglected to do so here.

There’s no way to be… Continue reading Six weeks
The other day Jeff and I were packing the kids up to run an errand. Jeff put Blake in her car seat while I helped Kenley get her shoes on. He suddenly remembered that he left the dogs in the backyard, so he ran outside. I picked up Blake, held Kenley’s hand and started toward… Continue reading Forget
