And we prefer grass. So we asked the landlords to do something about it. And they sprinkled grass seed. Without removing [...]

So I’m a week shy of full-term. Four weeks away from delivery if she’s early like Olivia. Six weeks away if she’s late like Benjamin.
Am I ready?
No.
Sure I’ve got stuff in the freezer for my “Babymoon”. But I’ve yet to wash the gender neutral onesies in the garage. Or find a [...]

Unlike last week, where it was sunny and I had 30 pictures… this week was very, very, very rainy. And so I have a total of maybe four pictures of my kids and only one of those includes a face. So I’ll take this opportunity to introduce you to the new kids’ room.
I actually had [...]
