Sick

Snotty, sneezy, raw throat, body aches, and more sleepless nights have made up our last couple of days. Mamas should never be [...]

No Sleep

Tweet All of my babies are sound asleep. I really should be sleeping, too. After all, my best piece of advice for new moms is to sleep when Baby does. In all honesty, I was about to call it a night when I realized that it had been five (maybe four – I’m too tired [...]

Fresh Air and Sunshine

Tweet It rained three days this last week, but Noah asked every day – multiple times – if it was summer yet. That boy is itchin’ to spend time outside. He wants to feel the sun on his skin. He’s dying to play in the water. Heck, he played outside every day this week! He [...]
