If you think your child is crazy and obnoxious...I dare you to watch this video of my middle child. I talk a lot about how rotten he can be. I think this video will justify why. Not why he is rotten. But why I often talk about his behavior. Even though he pushes me over the edge I love him to

We ventured out this morning to Aunnie Nina's house to visit Jack! I haven't had a chance to see him since the hospital and he has changed so much in two short weeks. He was seriously an ANGEL while we were there. How sweet is this face? SJ got to meet his future bestie for the first time!

Maybe it's because I can't buy any girly things around here. You know, I am SURROUNDED by ALL BOY stuff up in this joint. Not that I don't love me some boys, but a girl sometimes needs to be girly, right? So, I kind of fell in LOVE with this shower curtain from Anthropologie... AND I may have

It's really no secret that my hubby is romantic. I remember when we first started dating and he would do the most unique, sweetest, sometimes wierd but alwasy appreciated, things for me. For example, I can remember when he went away to his 2 week training for the military back in 2004 and he bought
