This sweetie little boy is now a three year old. Holy smokes. It was a simple and sweet little party in the backyard with a couble decker cookie cake and a tableful of presents. I am one lucky lucky mom, and I realize it everyday. My sister and her clever husband are in town so [...]

Happy Birthday my sweet three year old! It has been one super quick year. You are a delight and an adventure. There seems to be no limit to the things that you know how to say and do. You’ll repeat any word or phrase that we ask you too (this morning it was, “rolling with [...]

I know that I’ve already gushed about my sweet boy turning 2- but I wanted to share the photos from his birthday. We have no family or friends here so it was a really small party- but an awesome party nonetheless, just like last year. Jack’s birthday fell on a Sunday this year so we [...]

World, meet ginger. She was born early the morning of August 23rd, a short 30 minutes after we arrived at the hospital- no epidural, hospital gown barely on, my Doctor making it in just in time for the final few pushes.

I know that all ya’ll already know that Mr. Jack celebrated his first birthday (really, it’s his second, his birth day was his first birthday, right?) this weekend.

You were not in a hurry to leave your comfortable home- but you arrived a mere 2 hours before your visiting grandparents had to leave to catch their return flight. You were such a [...]

Garth is 31 today. He is such a super person, and that makes me one lucky girl. He woke up this morning on his birthday, made Jack a bottle, then let me sleep in and brought me hot chocolate in bed. Gosh, if only everyday was his birthday! love you, Mr. Awesome. Mrs. Awesome.

Miss Kaitlyn like to take pictures. This summer she would borrow my camera regularly and snap photos of the family and the lovely time that we were having together. There are Uncles and cousins blurily waving at the camera and photos of feathers in the dirt and toes on the playground. My favorite photos were [...]

Hope your day is filled with all of those things that you love. Especially sleep and pizza.

ok, it’s what 29 and 352 days looks like since I took it last week. But I pretty much haven’t changed too much since then. I almost posted this one, but then I though, “dang Laura! You’re 30! Don’t start getting all serious now!“. So here you have it: my 30 year old kissy face. [...]
