That time when you realize that your baby only actually likes one paci and you lost it and she’s tired and screaming for it and you just put your two year old down for a nap and ohmygoodness where is that stupid paci! Then you find it in the laundry, wash it off, pluck it in, and baby only sucks on it for twenty seconds before she’s out cold. Now she’s chuckling and singing in...
On Friday Jason will help my dad relocate his boat for the month of April. I couldn’t be more thrilled to continue our tradition of Easter at the Grand, just like we did growing up. I hope my girls will see it as a magical place, just like I do. I also hope Jason survives the 8 hour boat trip with my dad. Fingers crossed that the boat doesn’t break.
For now, here’s a photo of...
When the siblings come home...
My sisters came in from Denver and Knoxville and we had the most wonderful visit. My younger sister’s time here was short because serious college students can’t miss too much class. Hillary and Lucy (my niece) were able to stay for a week and a half. I don’t remember the last time I was able to spend that much time with my older sister. Here is Lucy meeting Emma for the first...

I assured her there was, in fact, no vacuum cleaner in the living...

My birthday is tomorrow. Someone must have told Kylie because she’s been screaming “Happy Birthday” at me all day. I’m torn over this one. My girl makes my heart sing, but I’m not sure my head can take much more.

So we’re sick. Well not Jason. I assume I contracted this miserable cold from someone at the party last weekend. Today both girls have it.
Kylie and I are stuffy nosed and coughing. Emma’s nose is stuffy now and she’s sneezy.
I’ve got the humidifier going. I’m downing black tea and hot lemonade with honey. I’m steaming up the bathroom for the girls...
