Lydia hits the big 15-monther next week, if you can believe it. She’s way past toddling now, she’s practically running sometimes. She is going light-speed through time; I can’t keep up mentally, physically, or with clothes that fit. Thank goodness for Grandma! Over the past few weeks, Lydia is starting to find her voice can […]

GAMEDAY!
Get your hands up!
bust a mutt
hey . . . HEY!!! Gettin’ close to GAMEDAY! Though I’m gearing up for Auburn’s Gameday (of course) I ran across this shirt and I would have so totally bought it but they quit selling it already. Not sure if they sold out or if they got in trouble. Heh.

Once when The Husband and I were just parents to two cats my mom told me when I had kids I was never going to take pictures of them because I would be too worn out from taking so many pictures of the kitties. “Oh please,” I replied back, “I’ll take so many pictures of […]

Happy First Birthday to Miss Lydia (and her Daddy, too)! An entire year — wow!
just some words
As most everyone who reads this site knows, we did lose my mom this past Sunday. The past few days have really been a blur. Apologies in advance for droning on about sad things; I promise I will be back to writing tales of tear-inducing laughter in no time. I did want to post here […]
steven’s second life
