Lego reviews

I briefly mentioned in our Christmas recap post that Jude loves to watch Lego reviews on YouTube.  You might be wondering what they are.  Well, you could do a search on YouTube and see for yourself.  Or I could just tell you… that works, too!  There are over 16,000 videos dedicated to talking about and [...]

My favorite Fountain Lady remix

And that’s saying something!  I was pretty surprised how many YouTube videos there are dedicated to this monumental event.

Enjoy!  It took me awhile to get rid of the giggles after Josh shared this with me last night.

My Jett

I love this boy.

It seems like I could be writing about a lot of different things today, but I keep coming back to Jett: thinking about him, wanting to share his goodness with you, wanting to recognize him for the awesome little boy he is.

He’s 4 1/2 right now.  Actually, yesterday would [...]

First day of kindergarten recap

I spent about 2 days trying to get this video uploaded, so you better watch it!

Just kidding.  It’s over 3 minutes long, so if you consider that a wise use of your time, knock yourself out!

I took this video of Jude as I was driving him home from school.  The camera work is [...]

Jace is 12 months

It’s hard to believe that we are celebrating the 12 month anniversary of Jace’s birth today.  Otherwise known as a… well, you know what it is.  It’s his first… don’t make me write it. 

Jace is a dream.  He’s been such an unbelievably good baby.  He is so mild-mannered, easy-going, HAPPY.  I love him [...]

The super smile

We all know that Jace is a happy baby.

Well, today he broke out what could only be described as a “super smile”. 

It’s a touch over-the-top.  It borders delicately on ridiculous.

But, he’s my baby and I love him.

I’ll admit, I wondered if this weird new smile is in response to new [...]

Jace is 6 months

Jace is 6 months old now.  He’s so much fun! 

I often get comments about what a happy baby he is.  Whether it be people in church or the guy cutting my blinds at Menards, his happiness gets noticed wherever we go.

Jace has been eating a few solid foods: carrots, squash, and peas, [...]

Sadie’s accident

Here’s the deal, as far I can figure out, anyway.

This all happened on December 23rd.  Not the greatest timing to make the “nice” list.

I was busily preparing for the five of us to be out of town for four consecutive nights: folding laundry and packing clothes in our bedroom.

I went [...]

Jace is 4 months old

What’s new in Jace’s life now that he is 4 months old?

Well, he’s beginning to show interest in toys and grabbing things around him.  At times, very aggressively!

He probably doesn’t spend as much time on the floor on his back or tummy as he should, but there is a very good [...]

Cowboy CurtisCowboy Curtis

I used to love Pee-Wee’s Playhouse.  Remember Cowboy Curtis as portrayed by Larry Fishburne?  Yeah, me too. 

Well, this post has nothing to do with him.  It’s just the first thing that popped into my mind when I thought about our own little cowboy getting ready for his preschool program last night.

He [...]
