Things have been going really well here. I am no longer fearful of being alone with my three children, so that’s a plus. It’s actually been going a lot better than I anticipated. The bigger boys have been keeping themselves entertained between playing with their toys and – let’s face it – watching [...]
August 26th, 2009 | by Jessie | Last weekend we were sitting around Jester Park with the family, relaxing, eating, talking. Somehow we got on the subject of misunderstood song lyrics. You know, when you think the lyrics are one way, but find out later just how wrong you were.
I’ll go first, but then I want you guys to chime in, [...]
August 24th, 2009 | by Jessie | Jett wasn’t obeying me after lunch today and as a result he landed himself in time out. I got busy doing other things and forgot to tell him he could come out.
When I remembered him, I started walking back to his room to get him. And that’s when I smelled poop. Oh great, another [...]

Friday was Emily’s birthday, she turned 26. My side of the family has been a little crazy about golfing this summer. We’ve never been a golfing family, which is why this sudden interest is amusing to me. I’ve only golfed a handful of times in my life, the latest outing would have been ten [...]
August 22nd, 2009 | by Jessie | Dylan started his sophomore year this last week. Can you believe it? Last year, if you remember or care to be refreshed, Emily made a special trip back home to accompany Dylan to his first day of high school. He declined her request to do the same this year, citing embarrassment. Or Eee-barrassment.
Here’s this [...]

I decided to split this post into two parts. Check back this afternoon for the exciting conclusion! Oh, and typical guy warning: if words like “cervix” and “dilation” offend you, we’ll see you tomorrow for Josh’s album review where no reproductive terms will be mentioned. Thank you.
The morning of Monday, August 10th, [...]
August 19th, 2009 | by Jessie | Hey guys! My friend Ali was lucky enough to receive a Kindle from her husband for her first Mother’s Day. Isn’t that awesome? Nice work, Troy! Very impressive. Surely you guys remember Ali from previous blog posts? She had twin girls – Frankie and Neve – this past December. And just because I’m a mom [...]
August 18th, 2009 | by Jessie | To date: my favorite photo of Jace. He was slightly jaundiced when we left the hospital, but not enough for any kind of treatment or real concern. He was just yellowish. The nurses suggested that we strip him down and put him next to a window with direct sunlight to help his “condition”. So these [...]
August 12th, 2009 | by Jessie | Slideshow! Warning: if you choose to proceed, you will see the sequential photos of Jude “discovering” his brother. It looked like one animal discovering another in the wild. Pretty darn cute.
