Today was a very cool but very busy day for the T family. My mom and stepdad came into town late last night (actually, it was early this morning) and were thankfully here to help us celebrate! The kids and I got a special treat – Grammy made them an early breakfast and I got…

My baby is FIVE today! I can hardly believe it. It has been a whirlwind and exhausting, but super fun day for us. Upon waking up in bed this morning (the kids slept with us in our bed last night), we all sang Happy Birthday to N before even getting up out of bed. N…

September 10, 2008 My Dearest Nathan, Where can I possibly begin in telling you how much I love you? There are no words. To say that you have profoundly impacted my life and made it richer, more complete, is simply an understatement. My dear, sweet, loveable, huggable, handsome boy – my…

Tonight N and I made cupcakes to take to his school tomorrow in celebration of his birthday. His request was for pink cupcakes with blue frosting and Wall-E decorations. Okay….got it. We ended up making the cupcakes tonight but decided to hold off on frosting and decorating them until tomorrow morning before school.

Yesterday N's godmother, Season, came by to celebrate his birthday a few days early with him. She's leaving town later this week for work and won't be able to see him on his actual birthday so he got to practice opening presents today with her. Even W got to open up a gift! A…

Today I took the boys for a stroll down on the Plaza. Since one of Kansas City's hot spots, I figured I needed to start acquainting them with their hometown and all that it has to offer.

He clearly described them as needing to be Incredible Hulk and other superhero themed cupcakes. We didn’t exactly…

There's no two ways about it. It's yummy. It's good for you. It's expensive. It's worth it. Now I'll be the first to tell you that I'm no cook. Nah. Nothing like my younger sis who can just whip up a batch of homemade pesto from scratch. But, I'll be darn if I wouldn't do…

(If you can't view the show, visit it here). So tonight to celebrate our 7 years of wonderful married bliss, we'll be enjoying a movie and dinner at my favorite restaurant! Last night we also watched our wedding video with the kids and had a fun time laughing at how much we've all changed in…

D's had a great day – I'll take the liberties of speaking for him on this one. He was teeing off at 7 a.m. this morning and then came home to have lunch with the kids and I. The best part about his homecoming was that as soon as N heard the garage door opening…
