I’m still here. Still alive. Just trying to recover from the girls and I all having the flu. Yeah, it wasn’t pretty. But I think we’re all pretty much back to being healthy and really, really, REALLY hoping that Tim doesn’t come down with it now!I’ll be back to posting again soon!

It is Friday. And it is beautiful outside — pushing 70 degrees with rumors that it may even hit the high 70s today! And here I sit, on the couch with my sick kid. Turns out that both of my girls are not feeling too great today. Zoe has diarhea and not much of an [...]

For all of you who just got suckered in by this post title, my apologies! No, I’m not pregnant! We’re getting a puppy!!!! We finally found a breeder that isn’t a 3+ hour drive away from us. I contacted her and she had two males (my husband is feeling a bit out numbered in our [...]

Do you know what you were doing a year ago today? Ok, that was silly because, really, why would you remember? I remember. I remember because a significant thing happened to us a year ago today. We had Zoe. A year ago today I was holding a brand new child in my arms. Exhausted. Hopeful. [...]

Wow, has it really been a week since my last post? Huh. It doesn’t feel like a week. But then again, I’m not sure exactly how long it feels like. All I know is that I unexpectedly took a week hiatus from pretty much all things internet these past few days. Why? I’m not sure. [...]
