  • MOM: This is for you since I know you’re going to ask! Kinda funny that David & I, who were perhaps the subject of my parent’s parent/teacher conferences in high school, attended our first parent/teacher conference for Nathan. Talk about feeling like real grown-ups! The guy I used to pass notes to in Algebra class…

  • Nathan’s been saying this phrase lately: “I’m unna tell you a question.” Which usually translates as: “I’m going to tell you something.” It has no actual relation to a real question. Example: “Mommy, I’m unna tell you a question, mkay? I think William likes to play with my trains.” Conversly, when he is asking a…

  • We went to the KC Pumpkin Patch today with Nathan’s preschool. It was a PERFECT day and we all had a blast! I’ve still gotta empty my memory stick and post the pics. I’ll do it soon, I promise! ********************************************************* PICS AS PROMISED! Searching vine after vine for just the right pumpkin. Got it! Headed…

  • Foamie Fun!

    Nathan and finally put together our foam haunted house that we’d bought the kit for last week. Will was kind enough to sleep during the entire time we did the project so that we could finish. Nathan does this funny little thing when he’s spreading glue back and forth. He’ll shake/nod his head back and…

  • Nathan has been majorly digging writing for at least the past few months but lately he’s gotten really, really into it. He actually asked me to take a picture of this so I of course obliged. He knows how to recite, spell and write his first and last name, knows his parents’ names, his address,…

  • Sick kid, semi-insane mom

    Nathan came home today from preschool just fine. Then he ate lunch, took a nap and then woke up with a 101 degree fever. UGH! Between trying to get him to calm down so that he wouldn’t wake Will from his nearly 3 hour nap and me trying to spruce up the place, I have…

  • MY music

    I was thinking as I was driving over to Kindermusik this morning with Will how much I’d missed being able to listen to my own music in MY car. I guess one great thing about driving sans Nathan is the fact that I can pop in my own CD and not worry too much about…

  • We’d been talking it up for the past few days – that N8 was going to get to see the dentist and he has been most excited! We started out today with brushing (as usual) then N8 started talking about how he was going to tell the dentist that he loves to brush his teeth…

  • Two cool, funny dudes.

  • Nathan: Three Years

    Dear Nathan, I can’t believe it’s been 3 glorious years since the day that i worked for hours trying to push you out of my body. I thought i’d never recover but look at us now! “I love you so much” seems too simple of a way to put it. You’ve become such a little…
