Melissa wrote a post that I loved so much here. She said “before there were blogs, there were boxes.” How true is that? Before this blog ,I too, had boxes of memories. Albums of pictures. Journals filled to the end. and even a few cheesy scrapbooks. All attempts to save and capture this beautiful ride we […]

I am a different mom the third time around. The things that worried me or overwhelmed me the first time, no longer make me feel the way they used to. Today was Ainsleigh’s birthday (and Apple’s due date)- we had such a fun day celebrating our sweet girl. I couldn’t help but reminisce when Aiden […]

This sweet angel is Two on Sunday. Sweet Ainsleigh kate, mama loves you more than you will ever know.. I celebrate you, your precious life and your precious spirit with all that I am. Happy day little beauty.

We are smitten over here. It has been so nice to be home as a family (after bedrest and NICU) and to begin to see what a family of five will look like for us. Chris has been working like crazy so this past weekend we went to the park, we cut up watermelon, spent […]

I wanted to share these sweet pictures of the kids through our “ER ordeal”- if you missed the story, I talked about the chaos here. I have a ton on my heart today…but for now, I will leave you with a picture heavy post of my sweet kiddos.  Aiden’s first overnight hospital stay.

whew. my emotions are all over the place. We are on day 9 of being in the NICU. The last days (even despite lots & lots of progress & continued good news) have been in a word-weepy. I start thinking about how she lays in that same bed all day (when I cannot be up […]

I don’t have the words right now, I just had a moment where I stood in the shower and let a week of tears that have slowly been building overflow from my soul. They just kept coming and coming and coming. and coming. On Tuesday, the day of Apple’s birth, we were robbed. It’s a […]
