Are you sure he is our child?


Jack is not like the rest of us when it comes to getting dirty

When Drew and I were younger, neither one of us wanted to get our hands dirty

Ben freaks out when he gets anything on his hands

Jack goes right for the dirt and starts digging (or eating it)

This little guy loves to get dirty


Happiness



A day of celebrating our dads


We are heading out for the weekend (I promise I will take lots of pictures)

but before we go, I wanted to take a moment to say

Happy Father's Day

I am lucky that in my life, I am surrounded by great dads

Not only do I have my dad, whom I love very much

I have a wonderful step-dad and father in law

and I am married to the most perfect dad that our boys could have



I hope that you all enjoy your special day

We will be thinking about all of you

Another Jack video

Jack and me

I just took this video using our computer. We are enjoying some quiet time before Ben wakes up.

Please visit me...

This afternoon the boys and I went grocery shopping. It was very windy and as I was loading Jack into his carseat, I told Ben to stay sitting in the cart or he's going blow away. With a complete look of innocence on his face, he said "I'll miss you guys. Maybe you'll come visit me."

And in case you were wondering, we had lots of rain this morning and t-ball was in fact cancelled. We did end up going to the farmer's market though. The rain cover came in handy on the double stroller and the boys stayed dry while I got wet. It was so empty there at 9am and we got we needed and made it back to the car pretty quick. I love getting fresh fruit and vegetables every Saturday morning.

Does it make me a bad mom...

That a part of me hopes that the 90% chance of rain we have tomorrow actually happens so we don't have to go to t-ball? Drew is working this weekend which means the boys and I are on our own. Ben has his second t-ball game at 10:30 tomorrow and I am exhausted at the thought of it. His first game was exhausting and there were three other adults there to help with Ben and Jack. Tomorrow, it will just be me. How am I supposed to stay with Ben when Jack runs off every time I set him down? Last time it was really crowded, we had to park far away, Ben was clingy, Jack didn't want to stay in his stroller.

Oh my, I hope it rains. Please don't judge me :)

Next week we can get back at it when Drew is here to take him.

Just another morning...

New teeth

I'm pretty sure that Jack is getting some new teeth. He's been cranky, a non-stop runny nose and it looks like something is about to pop through under his gums. Poor little guy!

Together we'll be better than we ever could be apart


This is what Drew said to me 5 years ago today as we said our vows


I believed it then and I believe it even more so now

Happy Anniversary Drew

Thanks for the past five years

I love you
