“Cast Rocks!” says Reece. “Look, I can move my arm! Look, I can use my fingers! I can grab!”

On Monday Reece got his splint off and his cast on. It’s much nicer than the splint and sling were. He had his family sign it, and of course his …

Just before Micah’s soccer practice today, Reece was climbing on a 4 foot retaining wall that our neighbors have next to their driveway and he fell off. He landed in the driveway. Nobody really saw it, but he cried so we knew something happened. He was not doing the …

Updates from this month:

• Davis is rocking back and forth on all fours. Yikes! He will be mobile before we know it! He is a very happy kid and the past few days has barely spit up at all. We may be at the end of this reflux problem. He …

I Know. All babies change. And they change fast. Well, our baby went from houseplant (premie + newborn stage), to super cute (beginning to interact), to grumpy beast (reflux snuck in), and back to a pretty cute kid recently.

When we run out of milk I often don’t know because I am not a big milk drinker and I have been avoiding it because I think it irritates Davis when I drink it anyhow. Someone usually tells me we have run out and I try to go to …

I was pretty nervous about taking three boys by myself up skiing, especially with one being only 4 and never having skied before, but Ily was kind of excited to have us all out of the way so she could paint the new door. I drug my feet and we …

It took a month, but our new front door is fabricated, in our possession, and ready for painting! We actually have to paint it before we install it. As much as I would love to just get it put in right now… We have to wait until I, YES I …
