I used to be a writer who spent hours creating fictional characters with elaborate pasts and exciting futures. And then I grew up and realized the truly interesting characters are the ones who are real; my kids, my family, my friends, my neighbors. This is where I write about them all.

Super Mom

Tomorrow I have a full-day training seminar in St Paul — Andy’s got the day off  to be with the kids so I can go to a sort of voluntary training for work / way to earn eight credit hours toward my IBCLC certification.  I’m really excited to be starting the process of preparing for [...]

Noah’s “Kindergarten Countdown”

Everyone keeps asking me if I'm going to be OK on the first day of school. Will I be able to handle it when I watch my first baby get on the school bus for the first time? Am I going to cry all morning? It may be because I am in a bit of denial right now, but at the moment I don't foresee a huge

Noah

I tend to remember our time pre-twins as “The Golden Years” and the time post-twins as “Feeling Nostalgic about The Golden Years.”  Not that our past three (-and-a-half, almost!) years since Adam and Gianna were born haven’t been incredibly amazing or anything; it’s just those first years “just the

Cheer Up, Emo Kid!

I sometimes need to remind myself not to read too much into Andy’s lyrics when I find them lying around somewhere while he’s working on new songs. I get super paranoid (or narcissistic, maybe?!) that they’re all about me. And if you’ve ever heard one of Andy’s songs… well, they aren’t usually happy

Reason #58: Why I Love Summertime

It turns out our house is positioned in this excellent “fireworks-viewing” corridor, and both last night and tonight we’ve gotten to sit out on our back deck and watch some beautiful fireworks displays.  Last night we had some neighbors with a seriously huge amount of amazing “real” fireworks (and a

“Little A” Prepares for Surgery

One week from today Adam will be having surgery to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. I keep telling myself "it's just a tonsilectomy" but I'm still worried; it makes me appreciate how lucky we have been these past six years with the kids' health as I realize some families have had much scarier

Moving On: Diapers and Boobs.

Growing up. I may be loving the fact that the twins have potty-trained and no longer wear diapers, but I'm having a much harder time dealing with the weaning process.

Turn baby, turn!

I found this picture today while sorting through old photos to use for the twins’ third birthday video.  (They are going to be three?!)   It makes me smile and want to cry at the same time! . What’s going on here?  Those of you who have followed me here from LiveJournal might remember when [...]

Experience today!

I figured out what my problem is!  (Well, one of them at least!)  I have been wondering why I seem to have such a hard time updating any sort of blog or journal lately and I’ve come to the conclusion that the problem is… Facebook!  No, really.  I’ve gotten so used to writing single-sentence ‘status
