Evan has been potty trained for quite some time now… except at night. :/
We’ve been working on her, but I blame her preemie status for her inability to go the whole night dry. I mean, her bladder is teeny-tiny, just like the rest of her. That just has to be it, right?
Anyway, she occasionally has [...]
This morning Evan snuggled up next to me and said, “Mama, Know how much I love you?”
“How much?” I played along.
“One hundred fifty five!”
Then she justified it, just in case: “That’s a BIG number, Mama!”
I love her 355 then!
Our wonderful, amazing, creative, patient, stellar niece Erica was over for a while yesterday and she captured this moment of our oldest three boys… Connor, Andy, Brady. I couldn’t help but smile when I saw it.
She also made them octopus hot dogs for lunch. She’s the best.
Andy and Brady were watching a science-type show on Animal Planet today. I was listening to it in part, but I was also doing some work online… The program was all about how animals seek different plants and herbs for medicinal purposes.
I find that sort of thing not-so-thrilling, but my boys were glued to the [...]
I can’t help myself. I love my kids… I love baseball… I love brightly colored summer photos… So, I just can’t stop. My sister-in-law Heather took these photos Saturday at Opening Day. I’m posting them here for all eternity!
She got many more of Andy and Brady…
Brady played first base for the first inning. Doesn’t he [...]
Andy and Brady’s coach’s wife is the league photographer… She did a GREAT job capturing so many cool moments of the day. She definitely got some better shots than I did… including some of Andy and Brady!
This is the majority of Andy and Brady’s team with two of their coaches (Nate’s the third, but he [...]
Today was opening day for our baseball league. I think Nate and I were just as excited as the kids!
For Connor, it was his first ever game! Isn’t he adorable?
I happen to think his coach is pretty hot, too!
Andy and Brady somehow eluded my camera (perhaps because I was busy with team Mom business!), but [...]
I still don’t think of us as being a large family… Maybe that’s because our oldest is only seven. For whatever reason, I just don’t yet. Maybe that day will come…
There are MANY, MANY blessings to having a big family. I realized one of them while grocery shoppoing today: You NEVER have to reach into [...]
I have to head off to a baseball board meeting soon, so I don’t have time to give you the full recap, but I will say this:
We had a GREAT, AMAZING, WONDERFUL time at Wrigley Field on Sunday.
We ended up riding the South Shore train into the city, then catching the Red Line portion of [...]
