The little brothers
April 24, 2014
Oh how I worried that Keaton would not do well with Kacher! He was the baby and I just knew that bringing a new baby home would throw him for a tailspin. You’ve got to love when you are totally wrong about what you think your kids will do. Keaton has been the most excited […]

Can you even believe that Kacher is already 2 months and 11 days old?! Me neither. We had his 2 months appointment yesterday ’cause you know, when you’re #4 you’re lucky if Mom even takes you to the doctor. Dr. V. says he is doing great! He weights 12 pounds 9 ounces and is 23 […]

As I near the 7 week mark of my tenure as a mother of 4, I figure it is time to document what life is like at the moment. This post is timely as I was just recently named recipient of the loathed Mother of the Year Award. In short, I’m drowning. Overwhelmed and drowning, […]

We have officially lived in our house for 1 year. It seems crazy. I feel like I can no longer use the excuse “we just moved here” to explain away all of its imperfections. My mom assures me that no one else sees them the way that I do and she might be right. Afterall, […]
