I didn’t get up till 6:30 this morning. Wow…haven’t done that in a while. I actually slept 6 straight hours with no interruptions or pain. I am in that stage of pregnancy when no matter where I lay down…my hips get sore after a little while and I…

Yesterday was Owen’s second birthday and last night we had a party. All of our friends and family that could possibly make it were there and we had a good time. The playground was a big hit (way to go Kris) and the kids and adults looked flushed and wi…

Well, tomorrow is the big day. Kris’ parents arrive in the morning and then we’ll get our last minute party things sometime during the day. Owen’s party starts at 6:00 and ends at 8:00. It’s sort of nice renting a facility because of the time thing.…

I want to write a little more detail about The Night of Laughter. Since it was an all consuming part of my life for the past several weeks it seems unfair to minimize it in past tense to a couple of lines in my blog.

I have too much to say in the time allotted me, so to quickly recap…

Went to lunch with Pastor Sandy
Picked up Owen

Owen woke up with a fever this morning. It’s not too high so I’m going to let it burn for a while and hopefully kill whatever is causing it. He is sleeping right now and I’m so glad. He has whined and cried and wanted nothing but to be held all mornin…

At our wonderful sewing party last Thursday night (which I meant to write about but never did) I was given a brief tour of Madison’s bedroom which now is complete with bunk beds. She showed me how quickly she can climb to the top bunk and while she was…

Last night on our way home from a very busy day I told Kris that with a week like we have in front of us I need to be absolutely firm about making lists and sticking to them. It is the only way I know of to be efficient with my time. So far this mornin…

Not a lot of sleep in between. I slept fast and hard, but not hard enough to keep baby brother from waking me up at about 4:30. I don’t remember Owen ever doing this to me but this kid is violent. He’s punching, kicking, banging his head, wiggling his…
