The first few months of Sophie’s life were really tough for us – she wasn’t sleeping, we weren’t sleeping, and as I’ve mentioned before, sleep is important! So, with Maggie’s arrival, we knew that we couldn’t just hope for the best as far as sleep went. We were going to need help. Since both our …

It’s a Famdemic
That’s right – the whole family has been knocked low. I blame the flu shots, but then again, I believe in Intelligent Design. I probably caught it from someone at work, and wanted to share my gift with the family. So far we’ve gone thrugh a half dozen boxes of tissues, a few bottles of …
HNT #2
OK, this is a scar…but it does come with a story. Get into the “Way Back Machine” to the year 1990. America has just finished helping Iraq defend itself against the evil Iranian ayatollahs.

Sorry, I couldn’t get my act together for a spoooooky HNT. I have some good ideas for non-Halloween HNT, so you just wait. Really.

Welcome to It’s Just My Life!
Blog Explosion has a neat section of the site where you can rent out space on your blog to another blogger. After receiving several offers, I rented the space to “It’s Just My Life“, a blog written by a SAHM for three kids. My favorite is Matthew, who isn’t sleeping through the night (just like …
Sophie, your father is an evil man
Isn’t this photo so cute? It shows a happy Sophie Sunshine, proud to be posing for the camera. I want to save this beautiful picture forever…but not for the reasons you think. This is a photo to save for the “My parents are dorks” time. The time when she brings a boy over, and we …
