Finally!  I can finally post positive feedback about actually going on a date night and it being a success!  Who would have thought. To put a bit of perspective on the whole…

Sometimes Seth gets things into his head and can’t get them out until he actually does it.  This was one of those occasions.  He spent the most of the afternoon…

Sunday starts the same way it usually does…  With the girls waking us from our peaceful slumber at around 7.30/8 after sleeping with us the whole night.  I keep feeling…

If you are ever in a group of parents, you might find yourself having to listen to stories about poop and vomit.  And let’s be honest, it’s not necessarily a…
