Cheeky Monkey
Today is your first Halloween and while you won't be trick-or-treating, we did dress you up as a monkey. You looked so funny to me in your costume, that it made me laugh so hard I cried. You were totally unfazed by it too, which was half the fun! I … [Continue reading]
Cut Me Some Slack

My, How Times Have Changed
When I was pregnant, I knew 18 other expecting mothers. All were long time friends or women I had worked with, 90% were expecting baby boys and there were two sets of twins. It seemed like every time I shared our good news, they were sharing theirs … [Continue reading]
Pure And Simple
I have to admit I was a bit apprehensive about my husband becoming a father. To be honest, I really didn't know what to expect. I knew he had never even held a baby for more than 30 seconds and had never ever changed a diaper before our son's. He … [Continue reading]
