Today Madeline and I were hanging out in the bathroom, and no we don’t normally spend quality time in the bathroom together, but I was contemplating carpet samples against the bathroom paint, thus the bathroom time.

We’re Making Progress
Today was day 3 of our basement construction. It’s surprising how quickly things are moving along. I’m very thankful for that, because our house has been so loud lately!

At his appointment he was 11 lbs. 13 oz., and 23.75″ long. Yes, he is tiny. I had high hopes that he would be bigger than Madeline was, but I suppose being born 3 weeks early [...]

I’ve Got to Stop Following Links
You might remember a while back, I mentioned that I had been reading Angie Smith’s blog and how inspiring she was and how much I recommended you read her blog, etc. Well, I have been reading her blog now for almost a year and in that time I have seen a number of links to [...]

2 Weeks and Counting
Since I have been on “the diet” for 2 weeks now, and on the supplements for 1 week, I figured it might be a good time for a little update on how things are going.
Where do I start?
Honestly, I am not seeing any hugely dramatic changes…yet! I will admit that I am slightly disappointed that [...]
