Lessons in Motherhood

Dad and I have been home with these children for 3 days now. We both can barely walk, we’re mentally exhausted, and we both nearly passed out on the couch at 9:30pm. School is closed again tomorrow so wish us both luck.

Not that I would ever complain about having snow for the girls to play in, but come on!!! A few months ago, I booked a trip to Buffalo for this Thursday so that the girls would have a chance to play in the snow. Then, we get 5″ in Atlanta 3 days before. [...]

2:30am was not my idea of an EARLY Christmas morning.

I’m frightened…very very frightened. Do you see what is happening in the picture below? It’s both of my children sleeping in the same bed. The same bed. Together. Asleep. Say what? I know. It’s crazy. Wait, is it crazy? I don’t know. Do siblings [...]

Everyone is jumping for my birthday! Thanks for a wonderful day, Daddy, Hailey, and Sophia!
