Every Wednesday Johna and I take the kids to story time at Barnes and Noble. There is the sweetest little lady they call Granny D and she comes out and reads stories to the kids. It is always a really cute story with pop ups or fuzzy little animals that all the kids can touch. [...]

A Big Top Celebration
John-Isaac will be 6 years old on May 1st, so this weekend we had his birthday party. He gets really overwhelmed with things so easily that we always keep his parties kindof low key. We just had family, and even with that we still had about 30 people in our house! We have a really [...]

What Team?….Wildcats!
High School Musical is all the rage at our house. Layne and John-Isaac both think that it is the greatest thing ever, so for Christmas my mom gave our family and Johna’s family tickets for the High School Musical The Ice Tour. We have been counting down since then and yesterday, finally, we made the trip [...]

Three Months Old Today!

Layne & Linley
Layne thinks that his little sister is the greatest thing. He asks to hold her all the time, but today it was just so sweet. It was almost like they were having their own little conversation. He would say something to her and she would coo and smile back at him. Linley lights up like [...]

Two Month Checkup
Linley had her 2 month checkup yesterday afternoon. She now weighs 12 lbs. and is 24 inches long. She is growing fast! She also got her first shots yesterday. I always hate that. We are doing an extended shot schedule just for my peace of mind. I don’t know exactly what I believe about shots [...]
