• What’s the point, really?

    I seriously hate that children’s clothing retailers, including this one, have no shame in manufacturing boys shorts, pants and swim trunks with faux drawstrings!  Seriously!  Would it really kill them to make a functional piece of clothing?  My boys are not hippy so they definitely need drawstrings on pants or…

  • All’s quiet on the Kansas front.

    The boys drove off this morning with Grammy and Uncle Al on their way back down to Texas for some spring break fun.  Sure, I’ll miss them, but I have a ton of work going on this week and could really use the downtime. There’s tons of fun in their…

  • Spring violin recital.

      Yesterday was Nathan’s violin recital and he performed wonderfully.  He doesn’t get nervous at the thought of performing or anything but I think he was a little distracted at the thought of his impending Spring Break Texas vacation.  By the way, I think he’d wear that shirt and tie everyday if he could.  He…

  • Week ten.

    Week 10 bump, courtesy of Nathan. I’ve gotten a little behind on posting these updates but nonetheless, my tenth week of this pregnancy is almost over and I can hardly wait to get through the next two weeks.  I finally broke down and got on some meds to help with…

  • Weeks eight + nine.

    What a whirlwind this pregnancy has been and is continuing to be!  Hence, the no blogging for a couple of weeks.   Although I still have my own intuition that I’m carrying a boy, this pregnancy sure is VERY different from my others.  I’ve still had Nathan taking pics of my…

  • I feel better already.

    Today's been a day of recovery for us here at the T household.  Yesterday morning I woke up feeling totally off.  I could tell it was much more than just morning/pregnancy sickness.  We skipped Will's Kindermusik class and I didn't get out of bed until about 10:30.  As I was…

  • Week seven.

    This has by far been the most challenging week of any pregnancy I’ve ever had.  I’ve made it, nonetheless, and am eager to get through this very bumpy road my body’s been traveling on!   Seven weeks!  Here’s my weekly update from American Pregnancy: What changes are occurring with your body?…

  • I ♥ my family.

    Happy heart day!  Valentine’s Day has been pretty okay for the T familia.  I actually woke up feeling better than I have felt all week long.  I think the baby is giving me a break; even if just for today. I took the kids to our church Valentine’s Day party…

  • Banana Dogs + My Birthday.

    Wow.  What a fantabulous birthday today has been.  Nathan crawled into bed with us at about 7 a.m. and rolled over and whispered with a big grin on his face, “Happy Birthday, Mom!”.  I smiled and squeezed him tight. For lunch the boys wanted me to fix them Banana Dogs. …

  • Week six.

    I am in my sixth week of pregnancy and starting to feel truly feel like it.  I guess I never really announced here on my blog that I am pregnant, so this post will do exactly that, now that it’s official.  I had my first doctor appointment today and it…
