I’ve done my darndest to take a photo of each one of the kids each day of their life. Nothing specific or crazy, just a visual documentation of them on that day. Sometimes I forget about it until after they’re sleeping and so I have to sneak into their room and use my little pop-up [...]

You are 18 months old! I went back through my dear ginger posts and was totally ashamed to only find two. TWO. Totally unacceptable. So this here post is a whole year of your life summed up. There is one major thing that you need to know and that is that you are the most [...]

Ginger’s first seven days. Do you think that she looks like her brother did during his first seven days on this planet?
